Abstract

Machinery noise is a major issue in many industries. Some industries, like aerospace and automotive, are well staffed and are equipped to consider noise even in the early product development stages. However, noise control practice is inadequate in many industrial sectors including textile, paper, metal fabrication, and food preparation. The objective of this work is to develop a simple spreadsheet tool that can be used to predict the effectiveness of common noise control measures. Though some basic noise control knowledge is needed, the user need not be a noise control expert. The methods and relevant theory are described, and the model is tested on several examples.
