| description | This paper contains a detailed description of the design and validation of a measurement stand for testing the airborne sound insulation of specimens made at a small scale. The stand is comprised of two coupled reverberation rooms in which the geometry represents the full-size reverberation rooms used at the AGH University of Science and Technology at a 1:8 scale. The paper proves that both the scaled measurement stand and the testing methodology conform to the ISO 10140 standards, and that the obtained measurement uncertainty does not exceed the maximum values specified in ISO 12999-1. Moreover, the calculated uncertainty of measurements obtained for the 1:8 scale stand is comparable with the typical uncertainty given in ISO 12999-1 and the uncertainty obtained on the full-scale measurement stand. In connection with the above, the authors have proved that by using the scaled-down measurement stands, one can obtain reliable and repeatable results of measurements of airborne sound insulation. |
