PREDICTING FACTORY SOUND FIELDS USING 1:50 SCALE MODELS
RJ ORLOWSKI · 2024
A usetul scale factor for tactory modelling as a design aid would he 1:50.The benefit of using small models in addition to reduced costs is that they can be easily modilied or rearranged so that several alternative noise control measures could be readily evaluated.The main limitation is that measurements are accurate only to the 11:11: octave full scale.However, this restricted frequency range may he Justiliable in terms of the exibility and low cost of 1:50 scale models.To test the teasibliity o! factory modelling at 1:50 scare, a model was built at this scale of the same lactory used to} the 1:16 exercise.This permitted the
