| Acoustical Test Facility Design, Qualification, and Application |
|
Staiano Engineering (SEI) defined acoustical test chamber options for an equipment manufacturer needing to perform product sound power level testing in response to a customer specification. After the client selected a reverberant room facility, SEI designed the acoustical features of the facility and the sound level data acquisition system. The test chamber was qualified for discrete frequency measurements in accordance with American National Standards and calibrated by means of reverberation time measurements. Once the chamber was qualified and calibrated, SEI performed the sound pressure level measurements, determined the source sound power emissions, and evaluated product compliance with the customer performance specification.
