Acoustics - Measurement of insertion loss of ducted silencers without flow - Laboratory survey method (ISO 11691:2020)

This document specifies a laboratory substitution method to determine the insertion loss without flow
of ducted, mainly absorbent, circular and rectangular silencers, as well as other duct elements for use
in ventilating and air-conditioning systems.
NOTE Laboratory measurement procedures for ducted silencers with superimposed flow are described in
ISO 7235[5].
This document is applicable to silencers where the design velocity does not exceed 15 m/s. As the
method does not include self-generated flow noise, this document is not suitable for tests on silencers
where this type of noise is of great importance for the evaluation of the silencer performance. As most
silencers, particularly in offices and dwelling, have design velocities below 15 m/s, this document can
often be a cost-efficient alternative to ISO 7235[5].
The insertion loss determined according to this document in a laboratory is not necessarily the same
as the insertion loss obtained in an installation in the field. Different sound and flow fields in the duct
yield different results. In this document, the sound field is dominated by plane wave modes. Due to the
use of regular test ducts, the results can include some flanking transmission via structural vibrations
in the duct walls that sets an upper limit to the insertion loss that can be determined.
This document is intended to be used for circular silencers with diameters of 80 mm to 2 000 mm or for
rectangular silencers with cross-sectional areas within the same range.

Akustik - Messung des Einfügungsdämpfungsmaßes von Schalldämpfern in Kanälen ohne Strömung - Laborverfahren der Genauigkeitsklasse 3 (ISO 11691:2020)

Dieses Dokument legt ein Substitutionsverfahren zur Bestimmung des Einfügungsdämpfungsmaßes unter Laborbedingungen von runden oder rechteckigen, hauptsächlich absorbierend wirkenden Kanalschall-dämpfern ohne Strömung sowie von anderen Kanalelementen zum Einsatz in raumlufttechnischen Anlagen fest.
ANMERKUNG   Labormessverfahren für Kanalschalldämpfer mit überlagerter Strömung werden in ISO 7235 [5] beschrieben.
Dieses Dokument gilt für Schalldämpfer mit einer Auslegungsgeschwindigkeit von höchstens 15 m/s. Da in diesem Dokument das Strömungsgeräusch nicht behandelt wird, eignet es sich nicht zur Anwendung auf solche Schalldämpfer, bei denen diese Art des Geräusches wesentlich für die Beurteilung der Wirkung des Schalldämpfers ist. Da die meisten Schalldämpfer, insbesondere in Büro- und Wohnräumen, niedrigere Auslegungsgeschwindigkeiten als 15 m/s aufweisen, kann dieses Dokument häufig eine wirtschaftliche Alternative zu ISO 7235 [5] darstellen.
Das nach diesem Dokument in einem Labor ermittelte Einfügungsdämpfungsmaß ist nicht notwendigerweise gleich dem Einfügungsdämpfungsmaß, das sich in einer Anlage unter Betriebsbedingungen ergibt. Unterschiedliche Schall- und Strömungsfelder im Kanal führen zu unterschiedlichen Ergebnissen. In diesem Dokument überwiegen beim Schallfeld ebene Wellenformen. Durch den Einsatz von üblichen Prüfkanälen können die Messergebnisse Beiträge durch Nebenwegübertragung von Körperschall über die Kanalwände enthalten, wodurch das bestimmbare Einfügungsdämpfungsmaß nach oben beschränkt wird.
Dieses Dokument ist vorgesehen zur Anwendung auf runde Schalldämpfer mit Durchmessern von 80 mm bis 2 000 mm und für rechteckige Schalldämpfer mit Querschnittsflächen derselben Größenordnung.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

corresponding arrangements in ISO 7235:2003 , and
— in this edition, test ducts and test object should, if possible, have the same cross-sections.

Introduction
The insertion loss of absorbent silencers is generally not affected by the air flow, provided that the
flow velocity does not exceed approximately 20 m/s in the narrowest cross-section of the silencer. In
practice, non-uniform flow distributions must be considered, therefore the limit velocity of 20 m/s
corresponds to a design velocity of 10 m/s to 15 m/s.

DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/DIS 11691:2019(E)
Acoustics — Measurement of insertion loss of ducted
silencers without flow — Laboratory survey method
1 Scope
1.1 General
This document specifies a laboratory substitution method to determine the insertion loss without flow
of ducted, mainly absorbent, circular and rectangular silencers, as well as other duct elements for use
in ventilating and air-conditioning systems.
NOTE 1 Laboratory measurement procedures for ducted silencers with superimposed flow are described in
ISO 7235.
This document is applicable to silencers where the design velocity does not exceed 15 m/s. As the
method does not include self-generated flow noise, this document is not suitable for tests on silencers
where this type of noise is of great importance for the evaluation of the silencer performance. As most
silencers, particularly in offices and dwelling, have design velocities below 15 m/s this document can
often be a cost efficient alternative to ISO 7235.
The insertion loss determined according to this document in a laboratory will not necessarily be the
same as the insertion loss that will be obtained in an installation in the field. Different sound and flow
fields in the duct will yield different results. In this document the sound field will be dominated by
plane wave modes. As this document requires regular test ducts, the results may include some flanking
transmission via structural vibrations in the duct walls, that sets an upper limit to the insertion loss
that can be determined.
NOTE 2 ISO 7235 gives methods for determining this limit.
This document is intended to be used for circular silencers with diameters of 80 mm to 2000 mm or
rectangular silencers with cross-sectional areas within the same range.
1.2 Measurement uncertainty
Due to lack of knowledge the determination of the uncertainty of results obtained from measurements
[2]
according to this document does not comply with ISO/IEC Guide 98-3 . Exact information on the
precision of the method cannot be given at this time. Therefore this document is denoted a survey
standard. However, due to a simpler and more narrowly defined test set-up it is estimated that this
method will have a standard deviation of reproducibility, σ , as defined in ISO 5725-2, which is equal to
R
or better than that of ISO 7235. See Table 1.
