Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method describes how to measure a steady flowof air through a test specimen, how to measure the air pressuredifference across the specim

18、en, and how to measure thevolume velocity of airflow through the specimen. From themeasurements may be calculated the airflow resistance, R, thespecific airflow resistance, r, and the airflow resistivity, r0.5. Significance and Use5.1 The specific airflow resistance of an acoustical materialis one o

19、f the properties that determine its sound-absorptive andsound-transmitting properties. Measurement of specific airflowresistance is useful during product development, for qualitycontrol during manufacture, and for specification purposes.5.2 Valid measurements are made only in the region oflaminar ai

20、rflow where, aside from random measurement errors,the airflow resistance (R=PU) is constant. When the airflowis turbulent, the apparent airflow resistance increases with anincrease of volume velocity and the term “airflow resistance”does not apply.5.3 The specific airflow resistance measured by this

21、 testmethod may differ from the specific resistance measured by theimpedance tube method in Test Method E384 for two reasons.In the presence of sound, the particle velocity inside a porousmaterial is alternating while in this test method, the velocity isconstant and in one direction only. Also, the

22、particle velocityinside a porous material is not the same as the linear velocitymeasured outside the specimen.6. Apparatus6.1 The apparatus, assembled as shown schematically inFig. 1, consists of the following components:6.1.1 Air Supply, a suction generator or positive air supplyarranged to draw or

23、 force air at a uniform rate through the testspecimen.NOTE 1It may be necessary to use a large surge tank or other meansto reduce pressure fluctuations.6.1.2 Flowmeter, to measure the volume velocity of airflowthrough the specimen. It is preferable to have two or moreTABLE 1 Conversion from cgs to m

26、with a rangefrom 0 to 250 Pa is usually satisfactory, but a second instrument with asmaller range, for example, 0 to 25 Pa, may be necessary for measuringsmall pressures to the desired precision.6.1.4 Specimen-Mounting Assembly, consists essentially ofa mounting plate and a specimen holder as shown

27、in Fig. 2. Themounting plate has two holes for tube connections to thepressure measuring device and to the airflow supply. Thespecimen holder, which is sealed to the mounting plate, ispreferably a transparent plastic tube at least 150 mm long witha diameter not less than 50 mm. For testing materials

28、 that willsupport themselves, such as disks cut from boards, a slighttaper at the top of holder will enable the specimen to be pressedinto position with a tight fit. For testing materials that will notsupport themselves, a removable screen held in position at least25 mm above the mounting plate may

29、be used alone or with aplunger assembly that can compress the specimen to a knownthickness. For testing thin materials, such as fabrics or papers,a flange at the top of the holder, together with a clamping ring,will enable the specimen to be held securely for testing.Specimens larger than the area o

30、f the holder can be tested withsuitable fittings attached to the end of the holder. In such cases,care must be taken to ensure that the airflow through the edgesof the specimen is negligible in comparison to that through theface.FIG. 2 Specimen HolderC522 03 (2016)3NOTE 3If measurements are made con

31、currently by the impedancetube method, Test Method E384, the two instruments may convenientlyhave the same inside diameter.7. Sampling7.1 Three or more specimens of a uniform sample materialshould be tested. When the sample is not uniform the speci-mens should be selected to include the variations i

32、n the properproportion, or several representative specimens of the materialsshould be tested and the results averaged.8. Test Specimens8.1 BoardsRelatively hard, firm materials at least 5 mmthick. For transverse airflow resistance, disks are cut or sawedfrom the sample with diameter to fit tightly i

33、nto the specimenholder. Coating the edges of the disks with grease may benecessary to form an airtight seal between the specimen and theholder wall. For lateral airflow resistance, several boards arelaminated together and a new board cut with faces at rightangles to the original faces of the boards.

34、 Disks cut from thelaminated board are tested in the usual manner.8.2 BlanketsRelatively soft, flexible materials at least 5mm thick. Disks cut from the sample are laid on the removablescreen. If desired, the plunger assembly may be used tocompress the blanket to the desired thickness. Care must bet

35、aken to prevent leakage around the edge of the specimen. Atransparent holder helps in spotting leaks.8.3 SheetsMaterials less than 5 mm thick. Disks withdiameter a little less than the outer diameter of the flange at thetop of the specimen holder are held in place with the clampingring with grease o

36、n the flange to limit the porous part of thespecimen to the inside diameter of the holder. Grease is alsoused to prevent flow of air into the edges of the specimen.Sheet materials with very low specific airflow resistance maybe tested by stacking layers of specimens separated with airspaces to obtai

37、n a measurable pressure drop. The average resultfor a single layer should be reported.9. Procedure9.1 Mount the test specimen according to the type of test tobe made. Seal the specimen holder to the mounting plate andadjust the airflow to give readable settings on the flowmeterand pressure measuring

38、 device. Start at an airflow velocity wellbelow 50 mm/s. Record the differential pressure, P, the flowrate, U, and the calculated quotient, R = P/U.9.2 Repeat the measurements several times, using a largerairflow rate each time. If the apparent resistance increases in asteady way, the airflow is pro

39、bably turbulent and the readingsmust be discarded. Make a series of at least three measure-ments at well separated airflow velocities (25 % recommendedminimum differential) below the turbulent level.9.3 Measurements should be made where possible within atemperature range of 22 6 5C. No adjustment to

40、 the calcu-lated results shall be made for barometric pressure.10.

Precision and Bias12.1 No quantitative statement on bias can be made at th

44、istime since there is presently no material available with knowntrue values of performance, which can be used for determiningthe bias of this test method.12.2 The within- and between-laboratory precision of thistest method, expressed in terms of the within-laboratory, 95 %Repeatability Interval, I(r

Thesestatistics are based on the results of a round-robin test programinvolving seven laboratories.12.3 The significance of the Repeatability and Reproduc-ibility Intervals is as follows:12.3.1 Repeatability In
