24、dorsement notice The text of ISO 3382-2:2008 has been approved by CEN as a EN ISO 3382-2:2008 without any modification. DIN EN ISO 3382-2:2008-09 EN ISO 3382-2:2008 (E) Introduction This part of ISO 3382 specifies three levels of measurement accuracy: survey; engineering; and precision. The main dif
25、ference concerns the number of measurement positions and thus the time required for the measurements. Annex A contains some additional information about the measurement uncertainty of the reverberation time. The introduction of the option of a survey measurement is intended to promote more frequent
26、measurement of reverberation time in rooms where it is relevant. It is obvious that a very simple measurement is better than no measurement. There are several reasons to measure reverberation time. First, the sound pressure level from noise sources, the intelligibility of speech, and the perception
27、of privacy in a room are strongly dependent on reverberation time. Rooms may include domestic rooms, stairways, workshops, industrial plants, classrooms, offices, restaurants, exhibition centres, sports halls, and railway and airport terminals. Second, reverberation time is measured to determine the
28、 correction term for room absorption inherent in many acoustic measurements, such as sound insulation measurements according to ISO 140 (all parts) and sound power measurements according to ISO 3740. In some countries, building codes specify the required reverberation times in classrooms and other c
29、ategories of room. However, in the vast majority of rooms, it is left to the design team to specify and design for a reverberation time that is reasonable for the purpose of a room. This part of ISO 3382 is intended to contribute to the general understanding and acceptance of reverberation time for
30、room quality and usability. Two different evaluation ranges are defined in this part of ISO 3382, 20 dB and 30 dB. However, a preference has been given to the 20 dB evaluation range for several reasons: a) the subjective evaluation of reverberation is related to the early part of the decay; b) for t
31、he estimation of the steady-state sound level in a room from its reverberation time, it is appropriate to use the early part of the decay: and c) the signal-to-noise ratio is often a problem in field measurements, and it is often difficult or impossible to get a evaluation range of more than 20 dB.
32、This requires a signal-to-noise level of at least 35 dB. The traditional measuring technique is based on visual inspection of every single decay curve. With modern measuring equipment, the decay curves are normally not displayed and this may introduce a risk that abnormal decay curves are used for t
33、he determination of the reverberation time. For this reason, Annex B introduces two new measures that quantify the degree of non-linearity and the degree of curvature of the decay curve. These measures may be used to give warnings when the decay curve is not linear, and consequently the result shoul
34、d be marked as less reliable and not having a unique reverberation. The use of rotating microphones during the measurement of decay curves has been considered by the working group, and this procedure is found to be without a clear physical meaning and thus it is only accepted for the interrupted noi
35、se method and only when the result is used for a correction term. For other reverberation time measurements, ISO 3382-1 covers auditoria and performance spaces, and ISO 354 absorption coefficient measurements in a reverberation room. Neither ISO 3382-1 nor ISO 354 is suitable for measurements in roo
36、ms like those mentioned above. Thus, this part of ISO 3382 fills a gap among measurement standards for acoustic properties of buildings. This part of ISO 3382 does not repeat the technical details of ISO 3382-1, but deals with the measurement of reverberation time, only, in any kind of room. 4 DIN E
37、N ISO 3382-2:2008-09 EN ISO 3382-2:2008 (E) 1 Scope This part of ISO 3382 specifies methods for the measurement of reverberation time in ordinary rooms. It describes the measurement procedure, the apparatus needed, the required number of measurement positions, and the method for evaluating the data
38、and presenting the test report. The measurement results can be used for correction of other acoustic measurements, e.g. sound pressure level from sound sources or measurements of sound insulation, and for comparison with requirements for reverberation time in rooms. 2 Normative references The follow

45、. An alternative measurement technique, however, is to use a period of maximum-length sequence (MLS) type signal or other deterministic, flat-spectrum signal like a sine sweep and transform the measured response back to an impulse response. 3.5 reverberation time T room acoustic parameters duration
46、required for the space-averaged sound energy density in an enclosure to decrease by 60 dB after the source emission has stopped NOTE 1 The reverberation time is expressed in seconds. NOTE 2 T can be evaluated based on a smaller dynamic range than 60 dB and extrapolated to a decay time of 60 dB. It i
47、s then labelled accordingly. Thus, if T is derived from the time at which the decay curve first reaches 5 dB and 25 dB below the initial level, it is labelled T20. If decay values of 5 dB to 35 dB below the initial level are used, it is labelled T30. 3.6 large room volume an enclosed space of volume
48、 greater than 300 m34 Measurement conditions 4.1 General In many rooms, the number of people present can have a strong influence on the reverberation time. Reverberation time measurements should be made in a room containing no people. However, a room with up to two persons present may be allowed to
49、represent its unoccupied state, unless otherwise specified. If the measurement result is used for correction of a measured sound pressure level, the number of persons present in the room should be the same for that measurement. In large rooms, attenuation by air can contribute significantly to sound absorption at high frequencies. For precision measurements, the temperature and relative humidity of the air in the room shall normally be measured. The contribution from air absorption is negligible if the reverberation time is sho
