Acoustics—Determination of sound power levels and sound energy levels of noise sources using sound pressure—Precision methods for anechoic rooms and hemi-anechoic rooms
This standard specifies the methods for measuring the sound pressure levels on a measurement surface enveloping a noise source (machinery or equipment) in an anechoic room or a hemi-anechoic room. The sound power level (and in case of impulsive or transient noise radiation, the sound energy level) of noise source in frequency bands of width one-third octave or with frequency weighting A applied, is calculated using those measurements, including corrections to allow for any differences between the meteorological conditions at the time and place of the test and those corresponding to a reference characteristic acoustic impedance.
In general, the frequency range of interest is the one-third-octave bands with mid-band frequencies from 100Hz to 10,000Hz. As required, the range is extended or restricted to frequencies beyond or within these limits, to those between which the test room is qualified for the purpose of measurement.
1.2 Types of noise and noise sources
The methods specified in this standard are suitable for all types of noise (steady, non-steady, fluctuating, isolated burst of sound energy, etc.) defined in GB/T 19052.
The noise source under test can be a device, machine, component or sub-assembly. The maximum size of the noise source depends on specified requirements regarding the radius of the hypothetical sphere or hemisphere used as the enveloping measurement surface.
1.3 Test room
The test rooms that are applicable for measurements made in accordance with this standard are an anechoic room or hemi-anechoic room, also called, respectively, a free-field test room or hemi-free-field test room.
1.4 Measurement uncertainty
Information is given on the uncertainty of the sound power levels and sound energy levels determined in accordance with this standard, for measurements made in specified bands of frequency and with frequency weighting A applied. The uncertainty conforms to Accuracy Grade 1 in GB/T 19052-2003.
