Wave Motion Some Basics Sound waves are pressure disturbances in fluids, such as air or hydraulic fluid as a result of vibration, turbulence, pumping, etc. These disturbances propagate at the speed of sound c (c = 343 m/s or 1125 ft/s in air at room temperature) The wavelength = c/f. For f = 1 khz, the wavelength is approximately 0.34 m or 1.13 ft. The wavelength is the acoustic yardstick. 3
Particle Motion Particles oscillate (but no net flow) Waves move much faster than particles Particle Displacement sin 2 Particle Velocity 2 cos 2 Particle displacement amplitude D 4
Overview Sound Power and Decibels Measuring Sound Power Noise Paths 5
Sound Intensity and Power u, p I pu Sound intensity is the sound power radiated per unit area I To get sound power, we integrate the normal component of the sound intensity over a closed surface W I nds S (watts) 6
An Analogy Like temperature, the sound pressure depends on the source power level AND the environment in which the source is placed. 7
The Decibel Scale Sound Pressure Level: Sound Power Level: L p L w p rms ( db) 10log10 pref 20 Pa pref W 12 (db) 10log10 Wref 1 10 watts W ref 2 The main thing to remember is that 100 db sound pressure level and 100 db sound power level are completely different! 8

An Example NVH Training Workshop March 7, 2018 A source has a sound power level of 90 db (re 10-12 W). What is the sound pressure level at a distance of 10 m in (a) a free field, (b) in a hemispherical free field, and (c) in a duct of cross-sectional area 1 m 2? a. b. c.
