The purpose of this study is to investigate the acoustic problems of the conventional heat recovery ventilator and to suggest the methods of noise reduction from a heat recovery ventilator according to the installed location. The noise level, in this study, was measured and discussed as the parameters of size, wind volume and sound absorbing duct length for a heat recovery ventilator based on domestic and international related standards. It is found, as a result, that almost all of noise levels from the small and medium heat recovery ventilators without the sound absorbing duct in the anechoic chamber were higher than the noise standard value of 50 dB(A) regardless of the wind volume, and the noise levels went down when a sound absorbing duct was installed. In addition, the sound pressure level relative to frequency bands according to the length of sound absorbing duct was generally decreased, as the length of sound absorbing duct in the small and medium heat recovery ventilators was big, and the sound pressure level was generally increased, as the wind volume was great.

The effect of the concentric solid tube inserted inside the vibrator on the sound field distribution was analyzed for the sound waves focused on the center axis in the fluid - filled cylindrical piezoelectric transducer. The sound waves radiated from the inside of the cylindrical piezoelectric vibrator are transmitted through the fluid medium and are reflected or transmitted on the wall surface of the solid tube, and are focused on the central axis. At this time, the sound field distribution centered on the acoustic tube varies depending on the acoustic impedance and the thickness of the solid tube. In order to theoretically analyze this, the transfer matrix for each medium is derived, and the sound pressure level at the center axis is theoretically analyzed. For the acrylic tube with various thicknesses, the changing trend in the sound pressure level measured on the central axis agrees well with the result of the theoretical analysis, and it confirmed that the sound pressure formed at the center changes very sensitively with the thickness of the solid tube.

In this study, in order to investigate whether or not the emergency broadcasting sound generated from an emergency broadcasting speaker is clearly transmitted to the occupant through architectural sound simulation, when the loudspeaker for emergency broadcasting is installed at intervals of 25 m according to NFSC 202 for a rectangular hallway. The sound pressure level and speech intelligibility index were analyzed according to changes in building finishing materials. With a reflective material finishing, sound pressure level satisfied the standard while speech intelligibility index was low. As a result of applying the sound absorbing material finishing, clarity and speech transmission index was improved to a level that could be understood by the occupant, whereas the sound pressure level delivered to the occupant decreased in the same space.

국외에서 산지재해를 예방하기 위해 하천 유사량을 계측하는 기존의 재래식 채집기의 문제점을 보완한 간접계측장치인 하이드로폰의 개발 및 실용화를 위한 연구를 수행하고 있다. 하지만 국내의 경우 유사량을 계측하는 기술 수준은 선진국에 비해 기초단계에 머물러 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 국내에서 사용하기 적합한 간접계측장치를 개발하고자 한다. 간접계측장치인 하이드로폰은 횡단구조물의 끝단에 부착하여 설치하는 형태로 개발하였다. 충돌음향 계측을 위한 센서부는 파이프와 마이크로폰으로 구성하였으며, 구조물에 부착하기 위한 고정프레임과 연결장치로 제작되었다. 설치된 계측장치는 하상에서 이동중인 토사가 파이프에 충돌할 때 발생하는 소음을 계측하며 충돌음은 데이터로거로 취득된다. 계측된 음향 데이터는 정확한 소류사량 추정을 위해 충돌 횟수에 착안한 펄스 분석 방법과 진폭의 시간 적분치에 착안한 음압적분치 방법으로 비교·검토를 수행하였다. 소류사량 추정 관계식의 유의성 분석을 수행한 후 펄스 수 기반 추정 관계식과 음압적분치 기반 추정 관계식을 공급 소류사량과 비교시 각각 29%와 33%의 오차율을 나타내는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 앞서 선정된 소류사량 추정 관계식의 신뢰성을 확보하기 위해 관계식으로 추정할 수 있는 예측구간 및 95% 신뢰구간을 분석하였으며, 분석 결과 펄스 수 기반 추정 관계식은 92.5%, 음압적분치 기반 추정 관계식은 90.9%로 두 관계식 모두 소류사량을 추정하기에 양호한 수준으로 일치하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 향후 추가적인 연구를 수행한다면 수문조사 시 부족했던 유사량 측정분야의 확대에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 예상되며, 이와 관련된 사업 및 기술발전에도 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper, the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic characteristics that vary depending on the rotation axial distance between the upper and lower rotor, which is one of the design parameters of the coaxial rotor, is analyzed in the hovering condition using the computational fluid dynamics. Aerodynamic analysis using the Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes equation and the aeroacoustic analysis using the Ffowcs Williams ans Hawkings equation is performed and the results were compared. The upper and lower rotor of the coaxial rotor have different phase angle which changes periodically by rotation and have unsteady characteristics. As the distance between the upper and lower rotors increased, the aerodynamic efficiency of the thrust and the torque was increased as the flow interaction decreased. In the aeroacoustic viewpoint, the noise characteristics radiated in the direction of the rotational plane showed little effect by axis spacing. In the vertical downward direction of the axis increased, the SPL maintains its size as the frequency increases, which affects the increase in the OASPL. As the axial distance of the coaxial rotor increased, the noise characteristics of a coaxial rotor were similar with the single rotor and the SPL decreased significantly.

This paper presents a procedure for the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic characteristics of a sirocco fan. For the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic analyses of the sirocco fan, three-dimensional steady and unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations are solved with a shear stress transport turbulence model for turbulence closure. The flow analyses were performed on a hexahedral grid using a finite-volume solver. The validation of the numerical results is performed by comparing with experimental data for the pressure, efficiency and power. The internal flow analyses of the sirocco fan are performed to understand the unstable flow phenomenon on the casing for the wall pressure and internal flow characteristics at each position. It was found that fluctuation of pressure and locally concentrated noise source are observed near the cut-off and expansion regions of the casing.

소음의 저감 대책은 소음원의 소음 감쇠, 소음 전달 경로의 소음 저감 및 수음자에 대한 대책 으로 나눌 수 있다. 여기에서 소음원의 소음 저감 대책을 세우기 위해서는 소음원의 주파수 특 성을 정확하게 분속해야 하고 이를 위해서는 자유음장이라는 공간이 필요하게 된다. 음향학적 으로 자유음장이란 점음원으로부터 무지향적으로 방사되는 음의 음압레벨(sound pressure level )을 따르는 음장으로 정의된다. 이는 음원으로부터 거리가 두 배 증가함에 따라 음압레벨이 6dB 감소함을 의미한다. 즉, 주변 소음으로부터 발생한 음이 다른 물체나 벽으로부터 반사된 반사음 이나 회절음의 영향을 받지 않는 음장을 말한다. 자유음장은 자연계에서 극히 제한적으로 존재 하지만 인간이 측정장비 및 측정 대상물을 이동시켜 이용할 수 없으므로 인공적인 시설로서 무 항실을 만들어 자유음장 환경을 조성한다. 이 글에서는 무항실의 특성 및 국내에서 시공되는 무향실의 설계 및 제작 과정을 간단히 소개하고 현재의 국내 무항실의 수준과 앞으로 나아갈 방항을 제시하고자 한다.

In order to prepare the fundamental data for the improvement of noisy working environments and the effective hearing conservation program on workers exposed to industrial noise, the authors surveyed the working processes and evaluated the noise levels on 56 manufacturing industries in Pusan area from April to July in 1985. The results were summarized as follows : 1. The noise level was the highest in shipbuilding and repairing(95.6 dBA), and followed by steel rolling(94.0 dBA), manufacture of motor vehicles(93.1 dBA), manufacture of fishing nets(92.9 dBA), manufacture of testiles(92.5 dBA), iron and steel foundries(89.3 dBA), manufacture of metal products(89.1 dBA), preserving and processing of marine foods(87.0 dBA), manufacture of rubber products(85.3 dBA), manufacture of plywood(84.9 dBA) and manufacture of paints(84.5 dBA). 2. Among fifty surveyed working processes, the noise level of twenty-one processes (42%) exceeded the threshold limit value for 8 hours per day. 3. As the allowable exposure times by governmental threshold limit values to industrial noise level(dBA), cocking of shipbuilding and repairing and plating(CGL) of steel rolling were the shortest(30 minutes), and followed by assembling(rivet) of manufacture of motor vehicles(1 hour) weaving of manufacture of textiles and shot, machine, pipe laying of shipbuilding and repairing(2 hours). 4. By the result of octave band analysis on noisy working processes in excess of 90 dBA, the sound level was the highest at 2,000 Hz or 4,000 Hz. 5. It was recognized that the measurement of overall sound pressure level was also effective as octave band analysis in evaluating the industrial noise.

The purpose of this study is to reconsider the rating method for the floor impact sound insulation performance in current criterion. Although there are some arguments about proper standard heavy impact source with reproducibility of actual impact source in residence building, bang machine is adopted as the only standard heavy impact source in domestic criterion. To inspect the rating methods of evaluation criteria, this study conducted vibration test for both of standard heavy impact sources and actual impact sources. Using the test results, the floor impact sound insulation performance levels were assessed by each of several criteria. In addition, low frequency noise beyond current criteria was evaluated. Consequently, the floor impact sound levels have different performance levels according to adopted criteria, and measured floor impact sounds are bound to annoy the neighbors in the low frequency range. Current criteria does not consider the spectrum characteristics of floor impact sound according to impact sources and low frequency noise. This may cause the difference between the floor impact sound insulation performance level and human perception. Thus current criterion needs to be complemented to reflect the spectrum characteristics of floor impact sound levels according to impact sources and sound pressure levels in low frequency range.
