1 35 CHAPTER 3 THE DESIGN OF TRANSMISSION LOSS SUITE AND EXPERIMENTAL DETAILS 3.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter deals with the details of the design and construction of transmission loss suite, measurement details in respect of materials studied, and other instrumentation aspects involved. Principal measurements are done and parameters such as with the sound reduction index, longitudinal wave speeds, and loss factors for different construction materials with known values are associated with them. 3.2 DETAILS OF TRANSMISSION LOSS SUITE (TL SUITE) The plan and sectional layouts of the transmission loss suite designed and constructed for experimental investigations are shown in Figures 3.1 and 3.2. The dimensional details are indicated in Figures 3.1 and 3.2. The dimensions of the source and receiver room are 5.4mx3.6x3m and 8.3mx2.6x3m respectively. The volumes of the source room and receiver room are 58.3 m 3 and 64.7 m 3 respectively. Though the volumes are smaller, the minimum value suggested by ISO [82] is 50m 3. An opening of 2.1 m x 3 m is provided in between the source and receiver room to insert the sample to be tested, the minimum value suggested by ISO [82] is 2 m x 2 m. The floor of the receiver room is vibration isolated to minimise the flanking transmission.
2 36 This has been achieved by placing the I-section girders on springs, which are welded, to the girder and the springs are kept 225mm apart. Each girder has 15 springs underneath. The outer diameter of each spring is 58mm, diameter of the coil is 80mm and length of each spring is 80mm. This arrangement is shown in figure 3.3. A sand layer has been laid over the joists and the flooring is laid over the sand which is shown in figure 3.4. Figure 3.1 Plan and layout of transmission loss suite and the microphone positions ( )
3 X 3.6 X 3 m 8.3 X 2.8 X 3 m Figure 3.2 Section of transmission loss suite The common opening between the source and receiver room is made up of two independent wall elements with 15mm gap. An acoustic caulking is provided in the gap, which minimise the transmission of acoustic energy from source to receiver room. All the experimental specimens have been cast in-situ and are built to the size of the common opening Figure 3.5. The other walls of the source and receiver rooms are 230mm thick. 3.3 DETAILS OF INSTRUMENTATION AND EXPERIMENTS The important equipments used in this study are: Sound source (Omni-Directional Speaker System) Sound level meter ( Lactron SL 4001) Level recorder and Vibration meter (PHOTON II signal FFT analyser) ½ inch microphone (DACTRON) Accelerometers (DACTRON)
4 38 The output of the microphone is connected to the analyzer and the signal is recorded using analyzer software in personal computer and has been used primarily for reverberation time measurements. For vibration velocity measurement, Tri-axial (sensitivity 10mV/g), uni-axial accelerometers (sensitivity 100mV/g) and impact hammers with BNC connectors have been used which are connected to the signal analyzer which produces an acceleration of 10m/s 2 to an accuracy of 0.2 db. The sound source (Omni directional speaker) produces a pink noise signal from 100Hz to 4 KHz Figure.3.6. The receiver instrument is the sound level meter (Lactron SL 4001) and 1.27cm microphone (DACTRON) is connected to the FFT analyzer.

For measuring the maximum sound reduction index, a test wall of 225mm thick has been constructed between the source and receiver room which is adequate for lightweight structures. With the sound source (Omni directional speakers) switched on in the source room, the sound pressure levels are obtained. Similarly the spatial average in the receiver room is also obtained. Tables 3.1 and 3.2 give the
7 41 background noise levels and reverberation time of the TL suite. The sound reduction index is then calculated as: R= L 1 L log (S/A) (3.1) [31] Where S = area of the test specimen (m 2 ) A = Equivalent absorption in the receiver room L 1 = Spatial average of sound pressure level in the source room L 2 = Spatial average of sound pressure level in the receiver room Table 3.1 Background noise levels of the transmission loss suite Linear (db) A- weighted db(a) Frequency (Hz) K 2K 4K 8K Table 3.2 Reverberation time study of the transmission loss suite Linear/ RT (sec) Frequency (Hz)/RT (secs) K 2K 4K 8K For measurement purposes the test signal has been filtered which is 1/3 rd octave wide which enables one to generate higher sound pressure levels in the desired frequency band. In each frequency band of interest the sound pressure levels generated should be at least 10dB higher than the background noise levels in the
8 42 band. For repeatability a set of six complete measurements are taken, as a function of frequency. They are paired into consecutive measurements without changing the original order of the set. The difference in the results between two members of every pair is compared at all frequencies. If these values are exceeded at any one given frequency then all the values are rejected and the method of check is repeated. Identical positions of measurements in the source and receiver rooms for measuring sound pressure levels should be avoided for checking the repeatability. The sound reduction index of the test specimen considering the transmission made from the source to receiver room and vice versa is obtained. The velocity levels on all the walls are also measured during the tests. The number of location points chosen for measuring the sound pressure levels is five, in the source and receiver room. Figure.3.7 shows the maximum sound reduction index of the TL suite. 60 Sound reduction index (db) Frequency (Hz) Figure 3.7 Maximum sound reduction index (R max ) of the TL suite
9 MEASUREMENT OF FLANKING TRANSMISSION The flanking transmission is determined by measuring the average velocity levels on the specimen and on the flanking surfaces in the receiver room. By generating the sound field in the source room, the acceleration level has been measured. From this the velocity levels have been obtained corresponding to seven positions on the test wall. With the assumptions of radiation efficiency of unity, which is valid above the critical frequency the sound reduction index is calculated as: R= L s L v db for f f c (3.2) [31] Where L s is the sound pressure level in the source room, L v is the velocity level on the surface of the test element (re 5e-8 m/s). The sound transmission calculated according to equation 3.2 in comparison to the conventional method could detect the possible flanking transmission. As equation 3.2 is valid only for frequencies above f c, differences should only be examined above 2000Hz. For this frequency range, sound reduction index is calculated according to equation 3.2 and by the conventional method, it is seen that the flanking transmission is minimal for the transmission suite constructed. 3.6 EVALUATION OF SOUND REDUCTION INDEX According to the standard ISO [82] the sound reduction index for a partition in the building element is, R= L 1 L log (S/A) (3.3)
10 44 This holds well under the assumption of diffuse sound fields. Where L 1 = Mean sound pressure level in the transmitting room or source room L 2 = Mean sound pressure level in the receiving room S = Area of the wall specimen A = Absorption in the receiving room By measuring the reverberation time T in the receiving room the absorption area in the receiving room is A= (V /T) (3.4) [31] Figures 3.8 and 3.9 show the microphone position and noise level measurement in the source room. 3.7 MEASUREMENT OF LONGITUDINAL WAVE SPEED (c L ) Figures 3.10 and 3.11 show the experimental arrangement for measuring the longitudinal wavespeed. The simplest way to excite a longitudinal wave on a structure is to strike it on an edge with a plastic head hammer. Two bi-axial accelerometers, Dactron and one uni-directional accelometers are mounted onto the specimen at a designated distance Figure Each accelerometer is connected to FFT analyzers. As a longitudinal wave is detected by the first and second accelerometer the analyzers stores the respective pulses and the time interval between the pulses is also measured. Knowing the distance and time interval the longitudinal velocity, c L is computed. The longitudinal wavespeed of materials tested are discussed in Chapter 4.

14 MEASUREMENT OF LOSS FACTOR (η) In this investigation two types of loss factors are measured. One is the internal loss factor and the other is the total loss factor. The internal loss factor is the fraction of energy lost as heat in one radian cycle whereas the total loss factor is the sum of the coupling and internal loss factor. Figure 3.12 and 3.13 shows the experimental arrangement for measuring the internal loss factor. The accelerometer is fixed to the panel by using beeswax or anabond glue. The panel is excited from a plastic head hammer and the vibration velocity output is detected and recorded. The signal from the accelerometer is fed into FFT analyser. The signal is further fed to the computer, which records the structural reverberation time decay. The loss factor (η) is evaluated as 2.2 (3.5) [32] f T 60 The total loss factor is required for subsystems such as rooms and plates to evaluate the sound reduction index through Statistical Energy Analysis models. The loss factor of the materials tested is discussed in Chapter 4.
