The committee acknowledge their debt to the Building Services Research and Information Associations work in formulating the methods of testing that appear in this standard. It is intended to review this standard w

15、hen a series of ISO standards dealing with acoustic testing has been completed and published as British Standards. Where reference is made to British Standards for which no metric version is available, the appropriate British Standard in imperial units should be used in conjunction with BS350. Atten

Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.

General 1 Scope This Part of this British Standard deals with methods of acoustic testing and rating of induction units, defined in Part1 of the standard, for: a) sound power emission; b) terminal attenuation. 2 References The titles of the publicat

19、ions referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 3 Definitions For the purposes of this British Standard the definitions of acoustic terms given in BS661 apply; other definitions given in BS4954-1, together with the following, also apply. 3.1 dummy load a flow restrictor or sim

20、ilar device having the same pressure/flow characteristic as the unit under test 3.2 insertion loss the insertion loss of an induction unit is the attenuation it gives to noise propagated from the system through the supply duct. It is defined here as the difference between the sound power radiated fr

21、om the open end of the supply duct and that radiated when the induction unit is connected to the supply duct. The test is conducted without air flow to determine the static insertion loss NOTENot all the sound power will radiate from the open end of the supply duct, some will be reflected back into

22、the system. In practice the total terminal attenuation can be taken as the insertion loss plus the end reflection (seeFigure 1) for the open end of the supply duct. this is achieved by determining the insertion loss of the induction unit and adding the end reflection of the open end of the supply du

24、unit in the test location 4 Nomenclature NOTEIn the text, mean values are indicated by a bar over the symbol. 5 General test requirements The test shall be carried out in accordance with the conditions and methods described in section2 unless otherwise specified in section1. 6 Test conditions 6.1 Lo

25、cation of equipment. The unit shall be placed in the test room in a position relative to the room surfaces similar to its normal location in use. The unit shall be mounted for test in a manner which simulates, as closely as possible, the method normally used in practice. Water connecting pipes shoul

26、d be omitted from test rigs. 6.2 Operating conditions. The test shall be carried out under the steady state conditions described for the air flow tests in BS4954-1. 7 Instrumentation Instrumentation shall comply with the provisions of section2 and of BS4954-1. 8 Test methods 8.1 Static insertion los

27、s 8.1.1 Insertion loss need only be specified in frequency bands of one octave width. 8.1.2 The unit shall be connected as shown in Figure 2. The chamber cross-sectional area shall be at least100 times the air supply duct area. 8.1.3 A noise source shall be positioned inside the chamber. This source

28、 shall take the form of either: a) a loud-speaker connected to a random noise generator, b) the reference sound source described in section2. Where a tape recording is used for the noise source, precautions shall be taken to ensure that the output remains constant throughout the duration of the test

29、. A closed loop tape is recommended to minimize the effects of tape sensitivity variations and the loop should pass the play-back head at least three times during each frequency band measurement. The tape should be of the type recommended for closed loop working, i.e.with a permanently lubricated su

30、rface. 8.1.4 Background noise levels shall be measured with the sound source operating during both unit-in and unit-out tests. These levels should be more than6dB below the measured mean sound pressure levels (seealsoclause21). Symbol Quantity Unit P Sound pressure Pa P o Reference sound pressure (=

34、n test, then this will reduce the measured insertion loss. Where this occurs the results shall be reported with a note to this effect. A correction for the intrusion of background noise affecting the measurements of sound pressure level with the equipment operating shall be applied for the condition

35、 indicated inTable 1. NOTEFor measurement of noise of quiet equipment seeAppendix B. Table 1 Correction conditions for background noise 8.1.5 The test shall be carried out as follows: a) with the unit installed as shown inFigure 2 start the noise source and measure the mean sound pressure level in t

36、he test room; b) remove the unit and with the same input to the noise source as in a) measure the mean sound pressure level in the test room. 8.1.6 The static insertion loss is the difference in sound pressure levels between the unit out and the unit in. Noise from the source which reaches the micro

37、phone measuring stations without passing through the unit under test (flanking transmission) will appear to reduce the insertion loss. The following procedure shall be carried out to determine whether this is occurring. a) Measure the octave band sound pressure level in the same way as for the unit

38、in test with the sound source operating. b) Block the duct upstream of the unit with a high transmission loss barrier immediately upstream of the unit and repeat the test a). If the octave band sound pressure level measured under b) is at least10dB below that measured under a) in each band of concer

39、n, the insertion loss measurements made on the unit will not be affected by such flanking transmission.

41、ired air flow rate which shall be held constant (to2%) for a minimum period of5min before commencing the test and shall not vary by more than2% during the test. b) Measure the mean room sound pressure levels in one-third octave bands. c) If a reference sound source is employed, measure the sound pre

42、ssure levels in the room with the sound source operating. d) Measure the background noise level with the unit removed and with a dummy load equivalent to that imposed by the unit connected to the fan inlet. The air flow rate employed for this test shall be within2% of that used in the main test. The

43、 background level should be at least6dB below the test sound pressure levels; if it is less than6dB below these levels then test results may be reported as affected by background noise. No correction shall be made for background noise. e) Compute the one-third octave band sound power levels using on

44、e of the methods described in section2 and check for discrete frequencies (seeexample inAppendix A). The test results may then be converted to octave band data provided that bands containing discrete frequencies are identified. 9 Rating tests 9.1 Generated noise test. This test shall be carried out

45、on the unit at a minimum of three air flow rates covering a range in which the highest rate shall be three times the lowest rate. Where integral dampers are fitted the unit shall be tested at three damper positions (fully open,# open,“ open) for each air flow rate. The test shall be repeated for eac

46、h nozzle arrangement offered. 9.2 Static insertion loss test. This test shall be carried out on the unit with any dampers set fully open. The test shall be repeated for each nozzle arrangement offered. 10 Correlation and extrapolation of test data It is not possible to lay down rules to cover every

47、eventuality but the following equations will generally be found satisfactory for correlating test data. Figure 3 Arrangement of equipment for generated noise testBS4954-2:1978 BSI 12-1999 5 10.1 At a given damper setting, calculate L Woin a given octave band from the following equation: L Wo= L W 57

48、 log 10 Q where Q is the air volume flow rate (in m 3 /s) Plot L Woagainst centre frequency divided by volume flow rate as shown inFigure 4. If90% of the test results lie within 2dB of a mean line, then this line may be used to predict the unit sound power output within the test flow range and at an

49、y air volume flow rate lower than the minimum test flow rate. 10.2 Data on modular units may be extrapolated for lengths of unit other than that of the test unit provided that the correlation described in10.1 is satisfactory by means of the equation: where The required L Wmay be found fromFigure 4 at f c /Q = (f c l)/(vl t ), where v is the related air volume flow rate (in m 3 /s). 11 Reporting of test results The test results shall include at least the following items. a) A description of the unit being tested, its
