In this paper, the noise reduction (insulation) of diesel generators is dealt with by taking the advantages of aluminum foam for the mixed frequency band noise of generators. In this study, the spectrum properties of generators were analyzed, and aluminum foam was applied with different pore structures, thickness and combination to the housing of a generator, and the comparison was made here with the results of sound insulation for generator. The results show that when aluminum foam is employed for insulation of mixed noise from generator, it is highly effective for high frequency noise, but it is not obvious for low frequency noise. The effect of noise reduction is good when using closed-cell aluminum foam for frequency higher than 500Hz; but opened-cell aluminum foam shows more effective in noise reduction for low frequency between 63-125Hz. The combination of aluminum foam and steel plate shows very effective in noise insulation of low band frequency. Maintaining a certain distance between steel plate and aluminum foam, noise reduction effect is obvious, and noise frequency band can also be reduced significantly. Keeping the distance of 20mm between steel plate and closed-cell aluminum foam with 20mm in thickness will reduce about 10-20dB noise.
