There are still discrepancies in the measurement results despite the standardized methods of measuring the sound absorption coefficient in the reverberation room. They appear especially in interlaboratory tests. The research used the method included in the EN-ISO 354: 2003 standard to determine the sound absorption coefficient. The subject of scientific research was to investigate the impact of measurement techniques (Maximum Length Sequence method and interrupted noise method for both T20 and T30 evaluation ranges), humidity in the test room, sample seasoning and sample fitting, and finally the influence of room variability on the measurement results. The tests were performed in two reverberation chambers. The study included two types of materials. Samples (1) made of identical pieces of mineral wool (ISOVER glass wool and ROCKWOOL rock wool) and (2) of fibreboard. Mineral wool was of different thicknesses. Among the measurement techniques, the smallest dispersion of the reverberation time results was obtained with the MLS -T30 method, and the highest differences in the results were caused by the test being performed in another room (reverberation chamber). There was no significant influence with the increase in humidity or the careful arrangement of the test sample from the components on the measurement result.

The main problem in the measurement of airborne sound insulation is the measurement of the sound power radiated by the barrier, in practice performed by measuring the sound pressure level and the acoustic absorption in the receiving room. Large variations of the sound pressure level in a reverberation room indicate the presence of dominating strong standing waves, so that it becomes necessary to install diffusing elements. In ISO 10140, the limits have been defined in which the reverberation time at frequencies at and above 100 Hz should be included. Sometimes, however, in the case of rooms with a large volume, obtaining the required parameters is difficult and sometimes even impossible. It should then be checked whether the measured sound insulation depends on the reverberation time. The paper presents the results of sound insulation measurements at various reverberation time lengths in subsequent stages of diffusing elements installation in the receiving room. An analysis of diffusing materials amount and arrangement influence on the uniformity of the sound pressure level distribution and reverberation time in the room as well as the value of the measured sound insulation was carried out. Uncertainty of sound insulation measurement with partial uncertainties was adopted as a criterion supporting the assessment of the obtained results.

A set of sound power assessments was performed to determine measurement precision in specified conditions by the comparison method in a reverberation room with a fixed position array of six microphones. Six blenders (or mixers) and, complementary, a reference sound source were the noise sources. Five or six sound power calculations were undertaken on each noise source, and the standard deviation (sr) was computed as “measurement precision under repeatability conditions” for each octave band from 125 Hz to 8 kHz, and in dB(A). With the results obtained, values of sr equal 1.0 dB for 125 Hz and 250 Hz, 0.8 dB for 500 Hz to 2 kHz, and 0.5 dB for 4 kHz and 8 kHz. Those can be considered representative as sound power precision for blenders according to the measurement method used. The standard deviation of repeatability for the A-weighted sound power level equals 0.6 dB. This paper could be used for house or laboratory tests to check where their uncertainty assessment for sound power determination is similar or not to those generated at the National Metrology Institute.

Norma PN-ISO/ lEC 17025:2005 dotycząca kompetencji laboratoriów badawczych i wzorcujących wymaga, aby laboratoria te stosowały procedury szacowania niepewności wyników pomiarów. W niniejszym artykule zastosowano podstawowe zasady wyznaczania niepewności podane w Przewodniku GUM oraz w Instrukcji ITB dotyczącej niepewności wyników badań wytrzymałościowych. Jedną z możliwości jest ocena budżetu niepewności, uwzględniająca wszystkie elementy mające istotny wpływ na wartość końcową niepewności wyniku końcowego. W przypadku pomiaru współczynnika pochłaniania dźwięku, przeprowadzonego zgodnie z PN-EN ISO 354:2005, na niepewność wyniku ma przede wszystkim wpływ niepewność pomiaru czasów pogłosu T1 i T2 oraz niepewność wyznaczenia współczynników tłumienia energii m1 i m2 (reprezentujących warunki klimatyczne w komorze pogłosowej), które oblicza się według PN-ISO 9613-1:2000. Pomimo bardzo małej różnicy między wartościami m1 i m2 opisującej zmiany warunków klimatycznych w laboratorium, złożona postać funkcji logarytmiczno-wykładniczej definiującej te współczynniki sprawia, że niepewność pomiaru wzrasta wraz z częstotliwością bardzo szybko. Szczególnie ma to miejsce w zakresie wysokich częstotliwości, gdzie wartości niepewności są znacząco duże. Ze względu na brak badań międzylaboratoryjnych, umożliwiających określenie niepewności pomiarów współczynnika pochłaniania dźwięku w komorze pogłosowej, jedyną możliwością jest wyznaczenie niepewności przez dane laboratorium. W ramach tematu naukowo-badawczego NA-62 opracowano własną metodę, związaną z wyposażeniem pomiarowym Laboratorium Akustycznego ITB i stosowaną w nim metodyką badań.

The standard PN-EN ISO/lEC 17025:2005 on the competence of testing and calibration laboratories requires that these laboratories shall apply procedures for estimating the uncertainty of their measurement results. The general principles of uncertainty evaluation used in this paper are based on the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM) and the Guide elaborated in ITB, concerning the uncertainty in measurements of resistance. One of the possibility is to evaluate the budget of uncertainty, taking into account all components that contribute significantly to the final result. In case of the sound absorption coefficient measurement, carried out according to the standard PN-EN ISO 354:2005, the overall uncertainty is first of all affected by the reverberation times T1, T2 and the power attenuation coefficients m1 and m2, calculated according to the PN-ISO 9613-1:2000. representing the climatic conditions in the reverberation room. In spite of very little difference between the values m1 and m2 describing the changes of climatic conditions (usually, it is the case in laboratory), logarithmic-exponential form of the coefficient function causes that the uncertainty of measurement results increase with frequency very fast. Particularly for the high frequencies, the values of uncertainty are very important. Due to the lack of interlaboratory tests, enabling the determination of uncertainty in measurement of sound absorption coefficient in a reverberation room, the only possibility is to determine the uncertainty by the given laboratory. In the frame of research work NA-62 the own method, has been developed, connected with the measuring equipment and the methodology of measurement used in Acoustic Laboratory of Building Research Institute (ITB).
