System for determination of materials impedance in impedance tubes

System for determination of materials impedance in impedance tubes is used for evaluation of material’s acoustic properties.

The system meets the requirements of applicable standard ISO 10534-2:1998 «Acoustics – Determination of sound absorption coefficient and impedance in impedance tubes – Part 2: Transfer-function method».

Measured parameters

Sound absorption coefficient
Reflection coefficient
Acoustic impedance

Operating principles

The specimen is placed inside of a solid, leak-proof, smooth impedance tube. The noise source generates broadband noise, then the sound pressure is measured at two points near the tested specimen. The transfer function calculated based on data from the two microphones is used for calculation of the required values.

FFT spectrum analyzer ZET 017-U4 is used for generation of the broadband noise and processing of signals received from the microphones. The noise generated by FFT spectrum analyzer is produced by the dynamic placed inside of the impedance tube. Two microphones inside of the impedance tube are used for acoustic pressure measurements.

Scheme of the stand for measuring the strength of materials

Frequency range depends on tube diameter and the distance between the microphones. It is also possible to achieve an extended frequency range by performing a number of tests with various diameters and distances.

Prior to measurements performance, it is necessary to calibrate the system so that to reduce the difference between characteristics of the microphones (i.e., amplitude, phase).
