ASTM C634-2013 Standard Terminology Relating to Building and Environmental Acoustics《建筑物和环境声学相关标准术语》.pdf

1、Designation: C634 13Standard Terminology Relating toBuilding and Environmental Acoustics1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C634; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number

2、in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONIn some of the entries, those that are measures of physical quantities, the term is followed by threeitems: symbol, dimensions, and unit. The

3、symbol, in italics, stands for the magnitude of the quantityin mathematical expressions. The dimensions of a quantity express its measure in terms of threefundamental quantities: M for mass, L for length, and T for time. Speed, for instance, is the quotientobtained when the distance an object moves

4、is divided by the time involved. The dimensions areLT1, the negative exponent indicating division. The unit is consistently in SI, Le SystmeInternational dUnits. Those still using the cgs (centimetre-gram-second) or the inchpound system ofunits are referred for most of the conversion factors to IEEE

5、/ ASTM SI 10. A few conversion factorsare listed in Section 4 of this terminology.The dimensions of a quantity are the same regardless of the units in which the quantity is measured.Speed has the dimensions LT1 whether it is measured in miles per hour, feet per second, or metresper second. Quantitie

6、s with different dimensions are not the same. Flow resistance and specific flowresistance, for instance, are quantities of different kinds even though the names are similar. On theother hand, quantities with the same dimensions are not necessarily of the same kind. Sound energydensity, for instance,

7、 has the same dimensions as sound pressure, ML1T2, but it is not a kind ofsound pressure. Nor is absorption with the dimensions L2 a kind of area.1. Scope1.1 This terminology covers terms and definitions related toenvironmental acoustics. Only definitions common to two ormore standards under the jur

8、isdiction of Committee E33 arelisted here. The purpose of this terminology is to promoteuniformity of key definitions. Definitions pertinent to only onestandard and exceptions to the definitions listed below arecontained in the individual standards and should be used whenfollowing those standards.2.
