3、eld measurement of in-duct soundpressure levels in large low pressure industrial air ducts, suchas for gas turbines or fans, where considerations such as flowvelocity, turbulence or temperature prevent the insertion ofsound pressure sensors directly into the flow. This standardguide is intended for

Silencers, as well as Waste Heat Boilers,must be designed using the in-duct sound power level as thebasis. Developing the true sound power level based on in-ductmeasurements of true sound pressure within a

17、A 19428-2959. United States14. Summary of Guide4.1 Key features of this guide:4.1.1 Athrough-wall test port opening, 25.4 mm (nominally,1 in.) or less, to which is connected the fixture, having aconstant inside diameter tube, to which the anechoic tube isconnected. The test port opening is flush wit

18、h the inside surfaceof the duct wall. No apparatus are inserted into the flow path.4.1.2 The microphone sensor is mounted in the fixture(3.2.3) outboard of the duct wall, with the microphone axisoriented normal to the centerline of the anechoic tube.4.1.3 The tip of the microphone, usually with a pr

19、otectivegrid, is positioned flush with, or more accurately tangential to,the inner wall of the fixture and as close to the duct wall astemperature or access limitations permit.4.1.4 The diameter of the microphone shall always be lessthan or equal to the inside diameter of the anechoic tube.4.1.5 The

20、 position of the microphone is critical for hightemperature ducts, so as to limit the maximum temperature onthe microphone during testing.4.1.6 The anechoic tube shall have no inner wall disconti-nuities or changes in diameter that might create reflections orstanding waves within the tube. It is imp

21、ortant to avoid anyprotrusion of the apparatus into the gas flow path.4.1.7 The anechoic termination may be achieved by looselypacking the “cold” end of the tube with mineral wool or steelwool. The tube end should be sealed airtight unless forced airis to be used to ensure adequate cooling of the an

22、echoic tube.4.1.8 The inner duct wall opening shall be as smooth aspracticable, with a minimum of turbulence producing discon-tinuities at the duct wall inner surface. If the user chooses tomount a protective screen covering the inside duct wallopening, such screen shall not materially influence the

23、 soundpressure measurements, or a means of quantifying and ac-counting for such influence shall be included in the testprotocol. (Be aware that such screens can become fouled withparticles.)4.1.9 The inner duct wall opening shall be the same insidediameter as the inside diameter of the anechoic tube

24、. That is,this guide does not permit the anechoic tube to be inserted into,or positioned within a duct wall port of larger size, unlessmeans are provided to ensure that the inner wall surface at thetest port is restored to a reasonable semblance of a smoothcontinuous wall surface.4.2 A sketch of a t

25、ypical Test Port is shown in Fig. 1.Asketch of a typical Fixture is shown in Fig. 2. Only the initialportion of the otherwise very long Anechoic Tube is depictedin each figure.5. Significance and Use5.1 All noise control features associated with the inlet orexhaust of large industrial fans and gas t

26、urbines are, or shouldbe, based upon inlet or exhaust sound power levels in octavebands of frequency. Sound power levels are not directlymeasurable, however, so they must be calculated indirectly,using estimated or measured duct interior sound pressurelevels.5.2 Estimated in-duct sound pressure leve

27、l may be obtainedby measuring exterior airborne sound pressure levels andapplying a transfer function representing the transmission lossNOTE 1Showing a typical Fixture (see Fig. 2) installed in an insulated duct wall. Note the stem of the Fixture extends all the way to the inner ductwall surface, oc

28、cupying a hole in the duct wall only slightly larger than the tube stem O.D.FIG. 1 Typical FixtureE2459 05 (2016)2of the duct wall. Significant uncertainties are associated withsuch a procedure, suggesting the need for this guide.5.3 Estimated in-duct sound pressure level may be obtainedby measuring

29、 exit plane sound pressure levels and applying atransfer function consisting of the insertion loss through the gaspath, including the insertion loss of any silencers. Significantuncertainties are associated with such a procedure, suggestingthe need for this guide.5.4 This guide purports to measure t

30、he in-duct soundpressure level directly using type 1 instrumentation per ANSIS1.4 or S1.43. It is limited, however, to the determination ofthe sound pressure level at the location of the port only and willinclude the effects of duct acoustical modes, as well as anunknown degree of turbulence and oth

31、er flow related effects.Methodologies may be devised by the user to minimize sucheffects. As a rule, the larger the number of test ports used, thebetter will be the averaged data. Although not prescribed bythis guide, cross-channel coherence analysis is also available tothe analyst, using ports at d

32、ifferent locations along the ductaxis, which may yield improvements in data quality.5.5 This guide is intended for application to equipmentin-situ, to be applied to large fans and gas turbines having inletor exhaust ducts whose cross sectional areas are approximatelyfour (4) square meters, or more,

33、and are therefore not amenableto laboratory testing. All of the field experience on the part oftask group members developing this guide has been on gasturbine ducts having cross sections in excess of ten (10) squaremeters.5.6 This guide has no known temperature limitations. All ofthe field experienc

34、e on the part of task group membersdeveloping this guide has been on gas turbine ducts havingtemperatures between ambient and 700C.6. Operating Conditions6.1 Whenever possible, equipment under test shall be oper-ated in a mode or modes acceptable to all parties to the test.Otherwise, operating condi

35、tions must at least be monitored inorder that the test results are properly qualified in terms of theparameters most likely to affect the measurements.7. Apparatus7.1 Description of the ApparatusSee section 4.1 and Figs.1 and 2.7.2 Permissible Range of Anechoic Tube Diameter, 6 to 25.4mm (14 to 1 in

36、.).7.3 Permissible Range of Microphone SizesMaximummicrophone diameter is nominal 25.4 mm (1 in.). Probemicrophones are permissible.7.4 Minimum Anechoic Tube LengthThe minimum ratioof the length of the anechoic tube to the tube inner diametershall be one hundred (L/d 100). Note that at low frequenci

37、esthe tube connection is not anechoic. The14 wavelengthdetermines the lower usable data range.7.5 Types of MaterialsAll steel pipe fittings, and metaltube for anechoic tube are preferred. Other materials such ascommon garden hose could be used for the anechoic tube if itis shown to be adequate in te

38、rms of ambient noise calibration.7.6 Use of shutoff ball valves is highly recommended,especially for hot gas applications.NOTE 1Showing a shutoff (ball) valve, a tee connection in which to mount the microphone and various fittings which will maintain a constant insidediameter through the tee connect

Note thatif the orientation of the microphone is vertical, as shown, there is less likelihood of accumulating condensation on the microphone from hot exhaust gases.FIG. 2 Typical FixtureE2459 05

40、 (2016)37.7 Guides for Creating Anechoic TerminationsAnyacoustically absorptive material such as mineral wool or steelwool is sufficient. The end of the anechoic tube shall be sealedairtight for all hot gas applications, or may be fitted with apressurized air injection system.7.8 Guidelines for Forc

41、ed Air Insertion into the AnechoicTubeIn the event pressurized air injection system is used,additional tests shall be performed demonstrating no interfer-ence results from the sound of the injection system or flowvelocity across the microphone.7.9 Frequency Ranges of InterestUnless otherwise agreedt

42、o by the parties to the test, the frequency range of interest shallbe 16 Hz to 10 000 Hz. For low frequency applications ensurethat the14 wavelength of the anechoic termination is below therange of interest.8. Procedure8.1 Selection of Measurement PositionsLocation of testports shall be at the discr

43、etion of the user. To the maximumextent practicable, the plane of the duct at which test ports areinstalled should be a region of relatively uniform flow bothupstream and downstream; that is, a straight portion of duct,and low velocity. If there are a number of discontinuities in theduct cross secti

44、onal area, it would be advisable to locate testports at midpoints between the discontinuities. For any givenplane of test port locations, experience has shown better resultswhen the ports are located away from duct corners. If strongduct acoustical modes are present and the mode shapes areknown, avo

45、idance of the acoustical nodes is clearly necessary.It is always advisable to have more than one test port at a givenmeasurement plane and, if possible, ports on at least two sidesof the duct. In the event cross channel coherence studies are tobe included in the test program, it is recommended that

46、thechannels involved in the analysis consist of test ports occupy-ing two different planes along the flow path, separated by aminimum of one-half (12) the larger duct dimension.8.2 Transfer FunctionSince the sound pressure level mea-sured at the microphones position within the anechoic tubewill diff

47、er from the sound pressure level in the duct, a systemcorrection factor must be determined for the test apparatus. Thesystem correction factor so determined shall be referred to asthe transfer function. The transfer function shall be added to themeasured sound pressure level. The transfer function s

48、hall bethe difference in decibels when the measured sound pressurelevel is subtracted from the reference in-duct sound pressurelevel, as given in Eq 1. The transfer function test shall beperformed as a static (no flow) test, using an artificial soundsource, while the machine is off, permitting acces

49、s to theinterior of the duct. If multiple test ports on a given duct arefitted with identical apparatus, differing only in the successivere-mounting of the fixture and anechoic tube to the valved testport, a single transfer function test will suffice for each type ofapparatus used. The transfer function shall be determined foreach one-third octave band of interest, and shall be applied tothe data in the subsequent analysis. The specific guide ofperforming the transfer function or applying a correction factorshall be unambiguously specified or described in
