A Study on the Acoustic Power DB Building for Korean Railroad in order to Predict Nearby Noise

한국철도 환경소음예측을 위한 음향파워 DB 구축에 관한 연구

For the reduction and efficient management of railway noise, first of all prediction of railway noise is necessarily requested, At home and abroad, many studies for prediction of railway nearby noise have been accomplished, But it is impossible to predict exactly for the Korean Railroad, because the acoustic power DB for each rolling stock used in Korea has not been builded yet. So in this study, acoustic power DB for each Korean rolling stock such as Samaeul, Mugungwha was builded according to the speed and rail support systems. Predicted results using accumulated acoustic power DB are compared with measured results and it is known that accumulated acoustic power DB can be used for more precise prediction of railway nearby noise.
