The A-grade sound level and spectrum characteristics of the range hood’s noise with and without exhaust pipes were measured and analyzed respectively, and the acoustic impedance of the pipeline and volute system was studied using the impedance transfer and equivalent impedance model. Theoretical and experimental results showed that the rotation speed of the fan was raised obviously and the A-grade sound level increased as well after installing the exhaust pipe. Meanwhile, sound quality was impaired by the low-frequency sound resonance due to the change of the acoustic radiation impedance of sound source. The resonance frequency depended on the length of the pipe and the volume of the range hood’s cavity. Study of effects of the exhaust pipe on the range hood’s noise radiation is of practical significance for assessment and control of the range hood noise.
