AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARDS ON ACOUSTICS The Acoustical Society of America (ASA) provides the Secretariat for Accredited Standards Committees S1 on Acoustics, S2 on Mechanical Vibration and Shock, S3 on Bioacoustics, S3/SC 1 on Animal Bioacoustics,

8、and S12 on Noise. These committees have wide representation from the technical community (manufacturers, consumers, trade associations, organizations with a general interest, and government representatives). The standards are published by the Acoustical Society of America as American National Standa

9、rds after approval by their respective Standards Committees and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). These standards are developed and published as a public service to provide standards useful to the public, industry, and consumers, and to Federal, State, and local governments. Each of

10、the Accredited Standards Committees (operating in accordance with procedures approved by ANSI) is responsible for developing, voting upon, and maintaining or revising its own Standards. The ASA Standards Secretariat administers Committee organization and activity and provides liaison between the Acc

11、redited Standards Committees and ANSI. After the Standards have been produced and adopted by the Accredited Standards Committees, and approved as American National Standards by ANSI, the ASA Standards Secretariat arranges for their publication and distribution. An American National Standard implies

12、a consensus of those substantially concerned with its scope and provisions. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple

13、majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered and that a concerted effort be made towards their resolution. The use of an American National Standard is completely voluntary. Their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he

14、or she has approved the Standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the Standards. NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American National Standards Institu

15、te require that action be taken periodically to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw this Standard.

29、etermination of sound power levels and sound energy levels of noise sources using sound pressure Survey method using an enveloping measurement surface over a reflecting plane. This standard comprises a part of a group of definitions, standards, and specifications for use in noise. It was developed a

30、nd approved by Accredited Standards Committee S12, Noise, under its approved operating procedures. Those procedures have been accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). The Scope of Accredited Standards Committee S12 is as follows: Standards, specifications, and terminology in t

31、he field of acoustical noise pertaining to methods of measurement, evaluation, and control, including biological safety, tolerance, and comfort, and physical acoustics as related to environmental and occupational noise. This standard is a revision of ANSI S12.56-1999 (R 2004) / ISO 3746:1995, which

32、has been technically revised. This Standard is identical to International Standard ISO 3746, Acoustics Determination of sound power levels and sound energy levels of noise sources using sound pressure Survey method using an enveloping measurement surface over a reflecting plane, which was prepared b

However, in conformance with ANSI and ISO rules, the words “American National Standard“ replace the words “International Standard“ where they appear in the ISO document, decimal points were substituted in place of the decimal commas used in I

34、SO documents, and American English spelling is used in place of British English spelling.

38、All rights reserved viiIntroduction This American National Standard is a national adoption of one of the series ISO 37412to ISO 37476, which specify methods for determining the sound power levels and sound energy levels of noise sources including machinery, equipment and their sub-assemblies. Guidel

39、ines to select one of those methods are provided in ISO 37401. The selection depends on the environment of the available test facility and on the precision of the sound power level or sound energy level values required. It may be necessary to establish a test code for the individual noise source in

40、order to select the appropriate sound measurement surface and microphone array from among those allowed in each of the ISO 37401to ISO 37476series, and to give requirements for test unit mounting, loading, and operating conditions under which the sound power levels or sound energy levels are to be o

41、btained. The sound power emitted by a given source into the test environment is calculated from the mean square sound pressure that is measured over a hypothetical measurement surface enclosing the source, and the area of that surface. The sound energy for a single machine event is calculated from t

42、his sound power and the time over which it existed. This American National Standard specifies methods giving results of ISO 12001:1996, accuracy grade 3 (survey grade) when measurements are performed within industrial buildings or outdoors. Ideally, the test source should be mounted on a sound-refle

43、cting plane located in a large open space. For sources normally installed on the floor of machine rooms, corrections are defined to account for undesired reflections from nearby objects, walls, and the ceiling, and for the residual background noises that occur there. The methods specified in this Am

44、erican National Standard permit the determination of the sound power level and the sound energy level with frequency A-weighting applied. For applications where greater accuracy is required, reference can be made to ISO 3744, ISO 37455or an appropriate part of ISO 961414-16. If the relevant criteria

45、 for the measurement environment specified in this American National Standard are not met, it might be possible to refer to another of the ISO 37412to ISO 37476series, or to an appropriate part of ISO 961414-16.

47、ng the sound power level or sound energy level of a noise source from sound pressure levels measured on a surface enveloping a noise source (machinery or equipment) in a test environment for which requirements are given. The sound power level (or, in the case of noise bursts or transient noise emiss

48、ion, the sound energy level) produced by the noise source with frequency A-weighting applied is calculated using those measurements. NOTE Differently shaped measurement surfaces can yield differing estimates of the sound power level of a given noise source and an appropriately drafted test code (see

49、 ISO 12001) gives detailed information on the selection of the surface. 1.2 Types of noise and noise sources The methods specified in this American National Standard are suitable for all types of noise (steady, non-steady, fluctuating, isolated bursts of sound energy, etc.) defined in ISO 12001. This American National Standard is applicable to all types and sizes of noise source (e.g. stationary or slowly moving plant, installation, machine, component or sub-assembly), provided the co
