Introduction
This Part of GB/T 1859 is one of a series of standards for the measurement of
sound power level of reciprocating internal combustion engines using sound
pressure. This series of standards gives a method for measuring the sound
pressure level on the measurement surface enveloping sound source to
calculate the sound power level.
The measurement result of sound power level is basically irrelevant to the test
environment and the installation conditions of sound source. This is an
important reason for the use of sound power level to characterize the noise
radiation of various types of machines and equipment.
The sound power level has the following uses.
- Marking of machine radiation noise under specified conditions;
- Verification of noise marking values;
- Comparison of radiation noise of machines of various models and
dimensions;
- Comparison with the noise limits specified in the purchase contract or
specification;
- Development of engineering measures to reduce machine radiation noise
(Generally, the band sound power level shall also be provided);
- Prediction of noise sound pressure level at specified position.
Table 1 shows the measurement methods of sound power level of three
accuracy classes to which the envelope surface method of this series of
standards applies. The measurement results are accurate to 0.1 dB. The
methods given in this Part allow the determination of A-weighted sound power
level; the accuracy class is Class 3.

Appendix A
(Normative)
Methods for appraisal of acoustic environment
A.1 General
This appendix specifies the method for measuring environmental correction K2
and can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of a given measurement surface
of the sound source being measured.
The first appraisal test (absolute comparison method, SEE A.2) is performed
using a standard sound source. This method is suitable for indoor or outdoor
use; and is a preferred method for appraisal of test environment, especially
when the frequency band data is required, and the sound source being
measured can be removed from the test site.
The second appraisal test (according to room sound absorption method, SEE
A.3) requires measuring the room sound absorption amount A. This test method
is based on the following premises. The room shape is similar to a cube, is
basically empty; and the room boundary has a sound absorption effect. The
following four methods, reverberation time method, double-surface method,
standard sound source method, and approximation method, can calculate the
room sound absorption amount A. If the sound source being measured cannot
be removed or has a large size, one of the methods may be preferred.
A.2 Absolute comparison method
The standard sound source whose characteristics meet the requirements of
GB/T 4129 is placed on the ground of test environment. The center of the
bottom surface coincides with the center of projection of bottom plane of
reference box on the ground. The measurement surface, microphone position
and its number are the same as those of the sound source being measured.
According to the provisions of Chapter 7, MEASURE the sound power level of
standard sound source, without environmental correction (ASSUME K2=0).
Environmental correction K2 shall be calculated according to the formula (A.1).
