BS EN ISO 3744:2010,Acoustics — Determination of sound power levels and sound energy levels of noise sources using sound pressure — Engineering methods for an essentially free field over a reflecting plane.BS EN ISO 3744:2010 pdf free download.
ISO 3744:2010 specifies methods for determining the sound power level or sound energy level of a noise source from sound pressure levels measured on a surface enveloping the noise source (machinery or equipment) in an environment that approximates to an acoustic free field near one or more reflecting planes. The sound power level (or, in the case of noise bursts or transient noise emission, the sound energy level) produced by the noise source, in frequency bands or with frequency A-weighting applied, is calculated using those measurements.
The methods specified in ISO 3744:2010 are suitable for all types of noise (steady, non-steady, fluctuating, isolated bursts of sound energy, etc.) defined in ISO 12001.
ISO 3744:2010 is applicable to all types and sizes of noise source (e.g. stationary or slowly moving plant, installation, machine, component or sub-assembly), provided the conditions for the measurements can be met.
The methods specified in this International Standard permit the determination of the sound power level and the sound energy level in frequency bands optionally with frequency A-weighting applied.
For applications where greater accuracy is required, reference can be made to ISO 3745, ISO 3741 or ISO 9614.If the relevant criteria for the measurement environment specified in this Internatinal Standard are not met, it might be possible to refer to another standard from this series,or to ISO 9614.
This International Standard describes methods of accuracy grade 2 (engineering grade ) as defined in ISO 12001, when the measurements are performed in a space that approximates an acoustically free field over a reflecting plane. Such an environment can be found in a specially designed room, or within industrial buildings or outdoors. Ideally, the test source should be mounted on a sound-reflecting plane located in a large open space. For sources normally installed on the floor of machine rooms, corrections are defined to account for undesired reflections from nearby objects, walls and the ceiling, and for the residual backgroun noises that occur there.
