Characterizing fluid noise generated by a fluid dynamic pump is an important aspect of pump design and noise control. Noise generated by fluid power pumps comes from a variety of sources, including fluid flow, pressure pulsations, mechanical vibration, and cavitation. The following are some key points to consider when characterizing the fluid noise generated by a fluid dynamic pump: 1. Noise measurement: - Sound Pressure Level (SPL): Measure the sound pressure level at different locations using a microphone or a sound level meter. SPL quantifies the overall noise intensity, providing a basis for comparison and evaluation. -Frequency Analysis: Frequency analysis is performed on the noise signal to identify the main frequency components. This helps to understand specific noise sources and their contribution to the overall noise spectrum. - Octave or Third Octave Analysis: Divide the noise spectrum into octave or third octave bands to evaluate noise levels in different frequency ranges. This detailed analysis helps to identify specific noise peaks and understand the noise characteristics of the pump. 2. Noise source and mechanism: - Fluid Flow Noise: Fluid flowing through pump components such as valves, ports, and orifices can generate noise due to turbulence, eddies, and pressure fluctuations. Analyze flow patterns and fluid dynamics to identify specific sources of noise associated with flow. - Pressure pulsation noise: Pressure pulsation caused by pump operation can cause noise. Evaluate pressure pulsation levels and their frequency content to determine their contribution to the overall noise. - Mechanical vibrations: Mechanical vibrations within the pump structure are emitted in the form of noise. Identify sources of vibration, such as rotating parts, reciprocating parts, or resonance effects, and evaluate their contribution to noise generation. - Cavitation noise: Cavitation occurs when the pressure is lower than the vapor pressure of the fluid, resulting in noise. Investigate the potential for cavitation to occur within the pump and its impact on noise levels. 90R075-MA-1-BC-80-S-3-C6-E-03-GBA-42-42-24 90R075MA1BC80S3C6E03GBA424224 90-R-075-MA-1-BC-80-S-3-C7-D-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R075MA1BC80S3C7D03GBA353524 90-R-075-MA-1-BC-80-S-3-C7-E-03-GBA-20-20-24 90R075MA1BC80S3C7E03GBA202024 90R075-MA-1-BC-80-S-3-C7-E-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R075MA1BC80S3C7E03GBA353524 90-R-075-MA-1-BC-80-S-3-C7-E-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R075MA1BC80S3C7E03GBA353524 90-R-075-MA-1-BC-80-S-3-C7-E-03-GBA-38-38-20 90R075MA1BC80S3C7E03GBA383820 90-R-075-MA-1-BC-80-S-3-S1-D-03-GBA-29-29-20 90R075MA1BC80S3S1D03GBA292920 90-R-075-MA-1-BC-80-S-3-S1-D-03-GBA-32-32-24 90R075MA1BC80S3S1D03GBA323224 90-R-075-MA-1-BC-80-S-3-S1-D-03-GBA-35-32-24 90R075MA1BC80S3S1D03GBA353224 90-R-075-MA-1-BC-80-S-3-S1-D-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R075MA1BC80S3S1D03GBA353524 90-R-075-MA-1-BC-80-S-3-S1-D-03-GBA-38-38-24 90R075MA1BC80S3S1D03GBA383824 90-R-075-MA-1-BC-80-S-3-S1-E-03-GBA-32-32-24 90R075MA1BC80S3S1E03GBA323224 90-R-075-MA-1-BC-80-S-4-S1-D-03-GBA-32-32-24 90R075MA1BC80S4S1D03GBA323224 90-R-075-MA-1-BC-80-S-4-S1-D-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R075MA1BC80S4S1D03GBA353524 90R075-MA-1-BC-80-S-4-S1-D-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R075MA1BC80S4S1D03GBA353524 90-R-075-MA-1-BC-81-P-3-S1-E-03-GBA-32-32-24 90R075MA1BC81P3S1E03GBA323224 90-R-075-MA-1-BC-81-S-3-C6-D-03-GBA-42-42-24 90R075MA1BC81S3C6D03GBA424224 90-R-075-MA-1-CD-60-D-3-C7-L-03-GBA-38-38-24 90R075MA1CD60D3C7L03GBA383824 90-R-075-MA-1-CD-60-D-4-C7-L-03-GBA-38-38-24 90R075MA1CD60D4C7L03GBA383824 90-R-075-MA-1-CD-60-L-3-C7-D-04-GBA-42-42-24 90R075MA1CD60L3C7D04GBA424224 3.
