In this study, we investigated band structure of a 2D Phononic Crystal (PnC) which was consist of hollow aluminum cylinders in different media. To validate the finite element predictions, we made a square lattice PnC which has lattice constant a=14mm, outer radius r(1)=5mm and inner radius r(2)=4mm of cylinders. In our experimental measurement, by using a signal generator software, we sent 100 Hz-20kHz sine signal for 5 seconds duration from speaker to the PnC where placed 1m away from. With the help of a microphone, we recorded the sound in front of the PnC (P-in) and backside the PnC (Pout). Then we were converted our recording into frequency domain by standard FFT algorithm, we calculated the Transmission Loss value according to the formula TL = 20*log(10) (P-out / P-in) and obtained the experimental Transmission Loss. After experimental validation, we conducted band structure analysis of different combination of the 2D PnC by finite element method.
