12、ting from hydraulic fluid power systems and components. It is intended that this standard will unify testing methods and enable the performance of different pumps to be compared on a common basis. The standard comprises the following Parts. Part 1: Method of test for pumps; Part 2: Method of test fo
13、r motors; Part 3: Guide to the application of Part 1 and Part 2; Part 4: Method of determining sound power levels from valves controlling flow and pressure. Further Parts are planned. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standard
14、s are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.

16、duction In hydraulic fluid power systems, power is transmitted and controlled through a liquid under pressure in a closed circuit. Pumps are components which convert rotary mechanical power into fluid power. During the process of converting mechanical power into hydraulic fluid power, airborne noise
17、, fluid-borne vibrations and structure-borne vibrations are radiated from the pump. The airborne noise level of a hydraulic fluid power pump is an important consideration in component selection. The noise measurement technique should, therefore, be such as to yield accurate appraisals of these airbo
18、rne noise levels. The determination of noise levels is complicated by the interactions which occur during noise measurement. The fluid-borne and structure-borne vibrations from the pump can be transmitted to the circuit and ultimately give rise to background airborne noise levels which could affect
19、the determination of the pump airborne noise levels. The procedures described in this Part of BS 5944 are intended to measure only the airborne noise radiated directly from the pump under test. This standard closely follows the methods described in BS 5944-1 and BS 5944-2 but allows the use of alter
20、native pump mounting and drive configurations which are simpler and cheaper to implement in an anechoic chamber. Much of the guidance given in BS 5944-3 is equally applicable to this standard. The data obtained has been shown to be sufficiently accurate in industrial terms for frequency A weighted,
21、octave and 1/3 octave noise measurements. 1 Scope This Part of BS 5944 describes procedures for the determination of the sound power levels of a hydraulic fluid power pump, under controlled conditions of installation and operation, suitable for providing a basis for comparing the noise levels of pum
22、ps in terms of: a) A-weighted sound power level; b) octave band sound power levels. From these sound power levels, sound pressure levels may be calculated for reporting purposes (see clause 11). For general purposes, the frequency range of interest includes the octave bands with centre frequencies b
23、etween 125 Hz and 8 000 Hz. This method is applicable to all types of hydraulic fluid power pumps operating under steady-state conditions, irrespective of size, except for any limitations imposed by the size of the test environment (see clause 4). NOTEThe titles of the publications referred to in th
24、is standard are listed on the inside back cover. 2 Definitions For the purposes of this Part of BS 5944, the definitions given in BS 661 apply together with the following. 2.1 free sound field a sound field produced in a homogeneous, isotropic medium free of boundaries NOTEIn practice, it is a field
25、 in which the effects of the boundaries are negligible over the frequency range of interest. 2.2 free-field over a reflecting plane a field produced by a source in the presence of one reflecting plane on which the source is located 2.3 free-field over two reflecting planes a field produced by a sour
26、ce in the presence of two mutually perpendicular reflecting planes 2.4 anechoic room a test room having boundaries which absorb essentially all of the incident sound energy over the frequency range of interest, thereby affording free-field conditions over the measurement surface 2.5 mean-square soun
27、d pressure the sound pressure averaged in space and time on a mean-square basis NOTEIn practice, this is estimated by space and time averaging over a finite path length or over a number of fixed microphone positions. 2.6 mean sound pressure level (Lp) ten times the logarithm to the base 10 of the ra
28、tio of the mean-square sound pressure to the square of the reference sound pressure in decibels (dB) NOTEThe weighting network or the width of the frequency band used should always be indicated; for example, A-weighted sound pressure level, octave band sound pressure level. The reference sound press
29、ure is 20 4Pa. 2.7 sound power level (Lw) ten times the logarithm to the base 10 of the ratio of a given sound power to the reference sound power in decibels (dB) Licensed Copy: sheffieldun sheffieldun, na, Fri Dec 01 14:21:26 GMT+00:00 2006, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSI BS 5944-5:1985 2 BSI 10-1999 N

31、d in 4.1, use methods of measurement which tend to result in standard deviations which are equal to or less than those given in Table 1. To meet this requirement the engineering methods given in clause 4 and Appendix A of BS 4196-4:1981 shall be used. 4 Test environment 4.1 Conduct the tests in an e
32、nvironment generally in accordance with that described in BS 4196-4 and which provides “free-field” conditions over two mutually perpendicular reflecting planes, at least one of which extends beyond the projected area of the microphone measuring array. NOTEThe other reflecting surface, which will us
33、ually be formed by an acoustic enclosure over the pump mounting, may be smaller if required. Table 1 Standard deviation of sound power level determination 4.2 Calibrate the acoustic test environment thus formed by the substitution technique. NOTEA reference sound source meeting the requirements of B

Ascertain the environmental corrections for each frequency band of interest (see 10.4). 5 Instrumentation 5.1 Use instrumentation to measure fluid flow, fluid pressure, pump speed and fluid temperature in accordance with the recommendations for “indu
35、strial class” accuracy of testing, i.e. class C given in Appendix A. 5.2 Use type 2 instruments for acoustical measurements in accordance with BS 5969. This instrumentation shall be in accordance with BS 4196-4 for both performance and calibration. 6 Installation conditions for pump 6.1 Pump locatio
36、n Locate the pump with its mounting flange flush with one reflecting plane. Arrange the second reflecting plane to intersect the first at right angles as close to the pump as practicable. 6.2 Pump mounting 6.2.1 Use a method of mounting the pump that will minimize the noise radiated as a result of p
37、ump vibrations. 6.2.2 Construct the mounting bracket of high damping material, or with sound damping and sound insulating material applied to the bracket as required. 6.2.3 If necessary, employ vibration isolation techniques, even if the pump is securely mounted. 6.3 Pump drive Locate the drive moto
38、r outside the test space and drive the pump through flexible couplings and an intermediate shaft or isolate the motor in an acoustic enclosure. 6.4 Hydraulic circuit 6.4.1 Include in the circuit all oil filters, oil coolers, reservoirs and restrictor valves as required to meet the pump hydraulic ope
39、ration conditions (see clause 7). 6.4.2 Use test fluid and filtration in accordance with the manufacturers recommendations. 6.4.3 Install inlet and discharge lines having bores in accordance with the manufacturers recommended practice. Exercise extra care when assembling inlet lines to prevent air l
40、eaking into the circuit. 6.4.4 Mount the inlet pressure gauge at the same height as the inlet fitting or calibrate for any height difference.

43、I 10-19993 6.4.5 Select the lengths of pipe between the pump and the load valve which minimize setting up standing waves in the discharge line which can increase the sound radiated from the pump. NOTEIt has been found that a long length of hydraulic hose can minimize standing wave effects. 6.4.6 Use
44、 a stable load valve. NOTEUnstable load valves in the discharge line can generate and transmit noise through the fluid and piping which can emerge as airborne sound at the pump. 6.4.7 Position the load valve as far as possible from the pump, preferably outside the test room, to minimize interaction.
45、 Locate the load valve close to the pump only when adequate control of its acoustic performance can be provided. 6.4.8 Enclose all fluid lines and load valves in the test space within acoustic ducts and enclosures, as required, to meet the specified background noise suppression (see 9.1). Use enclos
46、ures having a sound transmission loss of at least 10 dB at 125 Hz and greater loss at higher frequencies. 7 Operating conditions 7.1 Determine the sound power levels of the pump for any desired set of operation conditions (see 10.4). 7.2 Maintain these test conditions during the test within the limi
47、ts given in Table 2. 7.3 Test the pump in the “as delivered” condition together with any integral ancillary pumps and valves operating normally during the test, so as to include their noise contributions to the airborne noise level of the pump.

NOTEOver the frequency range of interest, the band sound pressure levels of this background noise should be at least 6 dB below the pump band sound pressure levels at each measurement point. 9.1.2 Correct for this background noise, if evidenced by measurement, by applying the corrections for this purpose given in BS 4196-4. 9.1.3 When measuring band levels of background noise is no
