Abstract
This paper presents a three-microphone two-load (3M2L) method for measuring the normal incidence sound transmission loss of a noise control system or material in a modified impedance tube. In the standard ASTM E2611-09, the downstream section of the impedance tube includes two microphones flush with the interior surface of the tube and the proposed four-microphone two-load (4M2L) method to assess the normal incidence sound transmission loss requires the use of two arbitrary acoustic terminations. The method presented here is conceptually identical but (i) the downstream section is reduced to a simple movable rigid backing with one microphone flush mounted on it and (ii) the two arbitrary acoustic terminations are replaced by two air cavities. It thus requires one microphone less and fewer transfer functions. The standard switching technique used to correct the variations between the three microphones is validated on a symmetrical air layer. The proposed 3M2L method is then applied to a non-symmetrical specimen and validated compared to the standard 4M2L method.
