Sound pressure levels in the receiving room while testing airborne sound insulation performance are varied by the measuring points. This may increase the measurement error, then decrease the measurement reliability. With this reason the research has carried out on the method to reduce deviations of sound pressure level in the ISO type rectangular laboratory focusing on the measurement of airborne sound insulation performance. Tests were made to see the effect of sound absorption in the receiving room, loudspeaker locations, microphones locations and flanking transmission path. Consequently, it was resulted that sound absorption in the receiving room and the loudspeaker location have influence on the sound level deviations especially in the low frequency. The microphone location was very important to get measurement reliability. The effective measuring point, which the sound level difference with average sound pressure level is within 2 dB, could yield most reliable average sound pressure level. Therefore it is necessary to find the effective measuring points in the receiving room. Flanking transmission path should be sealed using sound absorber or magnet etc. to prevent from lowering the sound insulation performance.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the airborne sound insulation performance between housing units and community facilities during the construction phase. Community facilities adjacent to housing units can lead to noise problems, hence it is necessary to minimize noise transmission during the design phase. However, flanking noise transmitted through gaps of structures, windows, pipes, and other openings may result in substandard sound insulation performance falling below the design standards. Therefore, It is crucial to measure airborne sound insulation in the field during the construction phase. The measurement was conducted using the survey method for the field measurement of the airborne sound insulation in accordance with KS F ISO 10052:2021. Although the noise standards caused by community facilities in apartment complexes are not specified in current laws and regulations, desired noise level was set based on international guidelines for indoor noise. First, the level of noise generated in community facilities was estimated, and then the sound insulation performance was evaluated to determine whether the desired noise level was achieved.

The window ventilation system based on the heat recovery device was developed which make air ventilation possible without opening the windows. However, mechanical and aerodynamic noises were come to pass which annoyed people in rooms. In the present study, noise of new window ventilation system was measured in both general room and anechoic chamber. Also, the noise path was detected to find cause of noise generation and vulnerable area of the device. Sound absorptive and insulation materials were applied to mitigate the noise. Finally, an alternative noise control method was suggested which can satisfy with the indoor noise standards. As a result, it was shown that the cause of noise was the low transmission loss in the ventilation system. As a result, it was shown that the main noise source of the ventilation system was the blower and the major cause of noise was the low transmission loss of the ventilation system. It is also concluded that the noise levels complies with the noise standards of 40 dBA when 2 mm rubber sheet is applied inside the ventilation system.

In this paper, it is presented that the effect of air gap insertion in testing the transmission loss of sound barrier using structural vibration system. In this study, we use the APAMAT based on the structure-borne-noise. The measured results show that air gap insertion improves transmission loss as results of test based on the air-borne-noise. The measured results are compared with the predicted transmission loss using the transfer matrix method. The predicted results were found to be in reasonable agreement with measured results.

Relatively high noise emitted from Transformers of in-door-substation in urban area has become the target of public complaints and the frequency is on the rise in these days due to an extension of transformer installations and new establishment of substations. The noise consist of harmonics of a specific frequency of the twice of the electricity frequency(60[Hz]), which is hard to control by using the general sound proofing techniques. In this work, several effective methods were discussed for reducing the noise from a transformer, which is transmitted through explosion preventing shutter and air tunnels. By applying to the actual site, the effects of the methods were verified.

대부분의 사무용 건물은 코아 부분(엘리베이터 홀, 화장실, 계단 등)을 제외하고는 Open 되어 있으며, 필요에 따라 부서간에는 천장 면까지 도달하는 경량벽체를 설치하여 독립된 공간을 구획하고, 부서내부에서는 직원들간의 커뮤니케이션은 용이하게 하는 대신에 최소한의 독립성을 제공하기 위해 낮은 칸막이 등을 설치하고 있다. 그러나 사무실에 사용하는 칸막이 벽체 중 천장 면까지 도달하는 칸막이에 대해서는 KS F 2808(건물 부재의 공기전달음 차단성능 실험실 측정방법)의 측정방법을 이용하여 차음성능을 확인할 수 있으나 낮은 칸막이에 대해서는 소음저감 성능을 측정할 수 있는 측정 방법에 관한 규격이 없다. 따라서 기존에 있는 모든 KS 규격들은 국제표준규격인 ISO와의 부합화가 이루어졌거나 이루어지고 있기 때문에 이러한 정부의 방침에 따라 본 낮은 칸막이에 대한 소음감쇠량 측정규격 또한 ISO규격(ISO 10053(음향- 실험실 조건에서의 사무실 스크린의 소음저감성능 측정방법))을 받아들이기 위해 ISO규격 내용을 검토하였다. 향후 이 규격이 그대로 우리나라 규격으로 제정될 때 나탈 수 있는 문제점을 최소화하기 위해 국내에 있는 반 무향실에서 낮은 칸막이의 실제 소음저감 성능을 실시할 계획이다.

A dash panel component, close to passengers, plays a very important role to protect heat and noise from a power train. Meanwhile, it is also a main path that transfers vibration energy and eventually radiates acoustic noise into the cavity. Therefore, it seems important to provide an optimal design scheme incorporating sound packages such as dash isolation pad and carpet, as well as structures. The present study is the extension of the previous investigation how design variables affect sound radiation, which was carried out using the simple plate and framed system. The system taken into account in this paper is a dash panel component of a sedan, which includes A pillar, front side member, dash panel and the corresponding sound packages. Design variables such as panel thickness and sound package layers are investigated how they are related for the better radiation performance (i.e. structure-borne) and sound transmission loss (i.e. air borne).

While a dash panel component, close to passengers, plays a very important role to protect heat and noise from a power train, it is also a main path that transfers vibration energy and eventually radiates acoustic noise into the cavity. Therefore, it is important to provide optimal design schemes incorporating sound packages such as a dash isolation pad and a floor carpet, as well as structures. The present study is the extension of the previous investigation how design variables affect sound radiation, which was carried out using the simple plate and framed system. A novel FE-SEA hybrid simulation model is used for this study. The system taken into account is a dash panel component of a sedan vehicle, which includes front pillars, front side members, a dash panel and corresponding sound packages. Design variables such as panel thicknesses and sound packages are investigated how they are related to two main NVH indexes, sound radiation power(i.e. structure-borne) and sound transmission loss(i.e. air borne). In the viewpoint of obtaining better NVH performance, it is shown that these two indexes do not always result in same tendencies of improvement, which suggests that they should be dealt with independently and are also dependent on frequency regions.

Low frequency noises (up to about 200 Hz) mainly occur due to particular modes, resulting in booming noises, and in general the solutions may be found based on mode controls where conventional methods such as FEM can be used. However, at higher frequencies between 0.3~ 1 kHz, as the number of modes rapidly increase, radiation characteristics from structures, performances of damping sheets and sound packages may be more crucial rather than particular modes, and consequently the conventional FEM may be less practical in dealing with this kinds of structure-borne problems. In this context, so-called 'mid-frequency simulation model' based on FE-SEA hybrid method is studied and validated. Energy Transmission loss (i.e. air borne noise) is also studied. A dash panel component is chosen for this study, which is an important path that transfers both structure-borne and air borne energies into the cavity. Design modifications including structural modifications, attachment of damping sheets and application of different sound packages are taken into account and the corresponding noise characteristics are experimentally identified. It is found that the dash member behaves as a noise path. The damping sheet or sound packages have similar influences on both sound radiation and transmission loss. The comparison between experiments and simulations shows that this model could be used to predict the tendency of noise improvement.
