The work of prepa
19、ring International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in l
20、iaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task o
21、f technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention i

28、e measurement of sound generated by rainfall on building elements using artificial raindrops produced by a water tank. Ideally, one should expose the test specimen to real rain for such measurements. But real rain is neither steady nor continuous with respect to time. Furthermore, raindrops can vary
29、 in diameter due to several factors, including geographic location, which will introduce variability in measured values. One can, however, use real raindrops as a means of validation of measured results obtained with artificial raindrops by building a test room in an unobstructed location. For such
30、research, it is important that the rain sensor or rain gauge is capable of measuring constant short interval rainfall rates. In the absence of drop size information, repeatability and fluctuations of the measured sound levels with real rain can be investigated by undertaking measurements separated b
31、y a time interval of at least 24 h. Artificial raindrop generation systems, other than the water tank used in this part of ISO 140, exist, such as hydraulic spray nozzles; however, so far, nozzles corresponding to the specifications given in this part of ISO 140 are not commercially available: indee
32、d, their flow rate is too high when the drop diameter is correct or the drop diameter is too small when the flow rate is correct. As a result, only the water tank solution is proposed in this part of ISO 140. An alternative to real rain or artificial raindrops is the dry mechanical excitation of the
33、 test specimen. Researchers have used different methods, such as excitation by an impact hammer and other mechanical impacting simulators, with an aim to simulate the noise of real rain. Such methods invariably suffer from the drawback that the noise source does not generate both the sound levels an
34、d the sound spectra that compare well with corresponding values generated by the real rain on various types of test specimens. Further research work is encouraged to develop mechanical methods of rain noise generation that can match both the sound levels and spectra of real rain. EN ISO 140-18:2006b
35、lank1Acoustics Measurement of sound insulation in buildings and of building elements Part 18: Laboratory measurement of sound generated by rainfall on building elements 1 Scope This part of ISO 140 specifies a laboratory method of measurement of the impact sound insulation of roofs, roof/ceiling sys
36、tems and skylights excited by artificial rainfall. The results obtained can be used for assessing the noise to be produced by rainfall on a given building element in the room or space below. The results can also be used to compare rainfall sound insulation capabilities of building elements and to de
37、sign building elements with appropriate rainfall sound insulation properties. This part of ISO 140 is based on measurements with artificial raindrops under controlled conditions using a water tank in a laboratory test facility in which flanking sound transmission is suppressed. Measurements using re
38、al rain, although a useful means for validation purposes, are not included because of the variable, unpredictable and intermittent nature of real rain. Other mechanical simulation methods under investigation by researchers are not sufficiently well developed at present to adequately simulate real ra
39、in both in terms of sound levels and spectra generated. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
