Based on a DrivAer model with notchback, the characteristics of convective and acoustic pressure fluctuations on the side window, as well as their contributions to interior noise were studied. Firstly, a full-size DrivAer clay model was produced with a real glass set on the front left window, and the rest parts with thick clay. In this way, the side glass becomes the exclusive transmission path for the exterior convective and acoustic pressures into acoustic cabin inside. In this study, the acoustic pressure fluctuation on the side window surface was calculated by solving the acoustic perturbation equation (APE) based on the calculation results of convective pressure fluctuation with the incompressible Detached Eddy Simulation (DES). Furthermore, with the convective and acoustic pressure fluctuations as power inputs, the interior noise was calculated with Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA). The calculated interior noise level shows good agreement with the tested results in the wind tunnel, which indirectly validates the reliability of the calculated acoustic pressures with APE method. The contributions of the convective and acoustic pressure fluctuations to the interior noise show that the acoustic pressure fluctuation takes much higher transmission efficiency than the convective one, especially at the high frequency range above the coincidence frequency of the glass, the contribution of acoustic pressure fluctuation is absolutely dominant.
