Noise and Vibration Control on Ships

  • 86 Accesses

Abstract

Universal control of noise and vibration is still somewhat of a novelty. Between existing and pending noise and vibration regulations, it is one of the most difficult responsibilities for the shipbuilding industry – including regulators, designers, builders, and owner/operators. The great majority of noise and vibration treatments for ships carry significant weight, space, and cost impacts. This is the major reason given for noise control being one of the last issues considered and implemented during a ship design or refit.

Notes

  1. 1.

    One of the first steps in risk reduction is a careful evaluation of acoustic criteria, their applicability to the vessel being built, any potential error in the written criteria, and the implications on the extent of noise and vibration controls needed to meet the requirement, and critical paths needed to achieve the desired results.

  2. 2.

    The latest US Navy noise standard as of 2016.

  3. 3.

    If smoke, fire, and toxicity requirements are met.

  4. 4.

    Covered by either a vapor barrier and/or perforated sheathing.

  5. 5.

    Meeting regulatory marine fire, smoke and toxicity requirements.

  6. 6.

    Chockfast material, a pourable epoxy grout, may slightly attenuation vibration above 4000 Hz.

  7. 7.

    Information in Table 10.2 similar to that in Table 8.12; however, some parameters are different.

  8. 8.

    The loss factor, η, is 2ς

  9. 9.

    Usually, the piping weight up to the first flex coupling or first isolator supporting the piping.

  10. 10.

    Bear in mind that spring isolators have a very low lateral stiffness compared to the vertical stiffness. In a seaway, spring isolators tend to short out unless a resilient pad is used to limit this motion.

  11. 11.

    A “strong” excitation is one with a high ‘modal participation factor’ and a high modal mass.

  12. 12.

    The after measurement should occur after at least 24 hours after the mount is fully loaded or within manufacturer recommendations.

  13. 13.

    Caepipe, Ceasar II, and Autopipe.

  14. 14.

    Spray-on damping treatment—be sure to follow vendor prep and application directions.

  15. 15.

    NASA also has an Excel worksheet to compute “Gas-flow-noise-estimation-2005.”

  16. 16.

    NACA – National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics.

  17. 17.

    ASHRAE – American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers

  18. 18.

    DesignerNOISE®, developed by Noise Control Engineering, LLC under a SBIR grant from the USN Office of Naval Research.

  19. 19.

    k value represents the material’s thermal conductivity

  20. 20.

    Due to high temperatures or stringent hygienic requirements

  21. 21.

    Also known as the Sound Reduction Index, R, per IEC 801–31-39.
