2、S Application This method is used to determine the damping of structure borne noise by sound deadening materials. This method is applicable for materials up to a thickness of 2.5 mm. Apparatus Required Test Equipment See drawings. Test Panel Surface roughness 0.9 - 1.8 micrometre C.L.A, dimensions 6
3、00 x 30 x 1 mm. The weight of the test panel must be 140 +/- 2 g.

4、 Convection Oven Capable of maintaining temperatures up to 200 +/- 2 C. Cold Box Capable of maintaining temperature down to - 40 +/- 1 C. Note: Both the mechanical convection oven and the cold box must be large enough to accommodate the test equipment with the test panel. Basic Theory The damping fa
5、ctor characteristics (structure born noise) is known as the loss factor Z. It is proportional to the deformation work energy converted to heat per cycle. For coated sheet metals the resonance method is used to determine the loss factor . FORD LABORATORY TEST METHOD EU-BV 060-01 Page 2 of 6 Copyright
6、 2000, Ford Global Technologies, Inc. For a resonance frequency fo, the two frequencies f1 and f2 are determined whereby f1 fo f2 and the amplitudes are lower by the factor A/2 and where A is the max amplitude of fo. It is f2 - f1 = f f is the band width of the resonance frequency. The loss factor i
7、s = f 2 - f 1 = f F0 f0 For quality comparison purposes in the automotive industry the loss factor at 200 Hz is a function of the material weight and the total weight. Conditioning and Test Conditions All test values indicated herein are based on material conditioned in a controlled atmosphere of 23
8、 +/- 2 C and 50 +/- 5 % relative humidity for not less than 24 h prior to testing and tested under the same conditions unless otherwise specified. Procedure Preparation of Test Assemblies A minimum of 3 test assemblies for each material should be prepared. 1. Prepare test panels in accordance with r
9、equirements of the relevant material specification and accurately weigh to 0.1 gf (G1). FORD LABORATORY TEST METHOD EU-BV 060-01 Page 3 of 6 Copyright 2000, Ford Global Technologies, Inc. 2. Apply test material by one of the following methods as specified in the material specification. a. Adhesives
10、b. Spraying with subsequent air drying c. Spraying with subsequent heat drying d. Heat fusion 3. After coating and bonding to test panel the test assemblies are stored for 24 h at 23 +/- 2 C and then again weighed to 0.1 gf (G). 4. The ratio of the material weight to the total weight in % is determi
11、ned as follows: Ratio % = G - G 1 x 100 G This ratio and the loss factor determine the quality of the test material. 5. The coating is then removed from one end of the test assembly for a length of 50 mm. Procedure for Measurement (see diagram) 1. The test assembly P is clamped with the removed coat
12、ing end into the head K of the test equipment such that the remaining 550 +/- 1 mm length is free to oscillate. 2. The excitation of vibration is transmitted over exciter D while the vibration level decay of the test assembly is taken up by the pick up E directly under the clamping area. Note: The t
13、est must be performed at a temperature of 20 +/- 2 C. If the relevant Material Specification requires test temperatures other than the afore mentioned, the test must be performed in a mechanical convection oven or in the cold box respectively. It must be ensured that the test assembly has attained t
14、est temperature before testing. Evaluation According to example on page 5. Chemicals, materials, parts, and equipment referenced in this document must be used and handled properly. Each party is responsible for determining proper use and handling in its facilities. FORD LABORATORY TEST METHOD EU-BV
