5  Principle
An alternating volume flow with a low frequency, f , for example of 2 Hz, is generated by a piston or
similar device (see Figure 1 and Figure 2) moving sinusoidally. This volume flow acts on an air cavity
that is either closed by an airtight termination or terminated by the test specimen mounted in a
measurement cell. The sound pressure level is measured in the air cavity for both cases.
The pressure inside the cavity is the outside atmospheric pressure modulated by the alternating flow
generated by the piston. The microphone mounted inside the cavity therefore measures the pressure
difference across the specimen when the test cell with the specimen is mounted.
When the air cavity is closed, the volume flow creates a sound pressure in the air cavity that can be
calculated from the piston movement, the dimensional information of the cavity and the atmospheric
air pressure.
When the measurement cell is mounted, the main part of the generated volume flow passes through
the test specimen and a lower sound pressure is observed in the air cavity. The difference between the
sound pressure levels when the vessel is closed and when the test cell is mounted is a direct function of
the airflow resistivity of the test specimen. By the measurement of the sound pressure differences, the
airflow resistance for the test specimen can be computed.
It can be practical to use different piston stroke lengths for the closed vessel and when the measurement
cell is mounted.

NOTE For materials with a visco-inertial transition frequency below 100 Hz, the method described in
ISO 9053-1 using a static flow can give a different result. Examples of such materials are: a) fibre materials with
large fibres, such as some metal or plant fibres, b) foams with low porosity but big pores, such as some metal
foams, c) granular materials with large grains and low porosity, such as road pavements.
6 Equipment
6.1  General
The equipment shall consist of:
a) a device for producing the alternating airflow (see 6.2);
b) a sound level meter or an alternative device for measuring the sound pressure level in a narrow
frequency band (e.g. a fractional-octave band) around the frequency of the piston (see 6.3);
c) a vessel (see 6.4)
— containing the air cavity,
— allowing connections to the microphone and the source of the alternating airflow, and
— including an airtight termination and a measurement cell;
d) a device for measuring the static pressure (see 6.5);
e) a device for measuring the frequency of the piston (see 6.6);
f) a device for measuring the thickness of the test specimen when it is positioned for the test.
6.2  Device for producing the alternating airflow
The alternating airflow shall be produced by a sinusoidally moving piston. The frequency of the piston
movement, f , shall be in the range of 1 Hz to 4 Hz and known with sufficient accuracy (see Annex C).

---------------------- Page: 16 ----------------------
SIST EN ISO 9053-2:2020
ISO 9053-2:2020(E)

The amplitude of the piston stroke, h (see Figure 1 and Figure 2), shall be determined, normally by
dimensional measurements. The rms-value of the volume flow, q , produced by the moving piston is
v
qf=⋅2 π⋅⋅hA⋅
vP
Different stroke lengths can be applied for the measurement with the airtight termination and the
measurement cell with specimen. The two lengths shall be selected to obtain suitable sound pressure
levels in both situations as well as to generate the required airflow velocity through the specimen. The
use of different piston frequencies and stroke lengths can be used to demonstrate that the obtained
airflow resistance is independent of the airflow velocity.
The rms-value of the flow velocity through the test specimen, in metres per second, is calculated
according to Formula (1):
2⋅⋅π fh⋅⋅A
sP
v = (1)
s
A
−4 -1 −−31
It is recommended to use rms-values of the flow velocity between 51· 0 ms and 41· 0 ms .
NOTE 1 A piston with a diameter of 10 mm and stroke lengths of 1,4 mm (airtight termination) and 14 mm
(measurement cell with specimen) has proven to be appropriate for a measurement cell diameter of 100 mm and
−3 3
an air cavity with a volume of about 10 m .
NOTE 2 The uncertainty analysis shows that the ratio between the different applied stroke lengths is
important. The ratio can be verified by using a sound level measuring system that covers the pressures generated
by all the applied strokes lengths.
6.3  Sound measuring device
The sound measuring device shall be able to measure sound pressures with the piston frequency. The
applied sound pressure shall be within the linear measurement range for the device.
The sound measuring device shall have a small bandwidth around the piston frequency for reducing
background noise and harmonic distortions.
For all related measurements at a particular piston frequency including measurement of background
noise, the bandwidth of the sound measuring device shall not be changed.
The sound measuring device may be a sound level meter, including microphones and cables, conforming
to the requirements of IEC 61672-1 class 1 or class 2, and with fractional-octave band filters meeting
the requirements of IEC 61260-1 class 1 or class 2.
It is important that the sound measuring device only measure the sound with frequencies close to the
frequency of the piston in order to reduce the effect of harmonic distortions and background noise. The
band limiting function can be obtained by the use of a fractional-octave band filter or FFT-analyser/
technique.
NOTE The sound measuring device is mainly used to determine the difference in sound pressure levels for
sound with a constant frequency. Level linearity performance at this frequency is therefore the most important
property.
6.4  Vessel and measurement cell
The vessel and the measurement cell shall be in the shape of a circular cylinder or a rectangular
parallelepiped (preferably with a square cross-section in the latter case). The vessel shall include
appropriate seals to enable a leak-free mounting of the airtight termination and the measurement cell.
The vessel and the airtight termination shall be sufficiently stiff to avoid volume changes under
alternating pressure conditions. The volume, V , of the air cavity inside the closed vessel with the
© ISO 2020 – All rights reserved 7

---------------------- Page: 17 ----------------------
SIST EN ISO 9053-2:2020
ISO 9053-2:2020(E)

airtight termination mounted shall include all connecting pipes, such as to the microphone and to the
piston. The piston shall be in centre position when the volume is measured.
The diameter or smallest edge of the measurement cell shall be chosen depending on the specimens
to test. In any case, the minimum diameter or smallest edge of the measurement cell shall be 29 mm.
Furthermore, the air cavity shall have a cross section that is at least the same as the cross section of the
measurement cell. Various measurement cells can be used as long as they fulfil all the requirements of
this document.
The vessel and the measurement cell should be made so that the airflow is along the flow direction
to be measured. This is normally perpendicular to the surface of the specimen to be measured. The
measurement cell may include two grills or perforated plates for keeping the test specimen in position.
It is important that the test specimen do not move due to the alternating air flow. The supports shall
have an open area of minimum 50 %, evenly distributed. The holes in the support shall have a diameter
of not less than 3 mm. The airflow resistance of the support should be less than 1 % of the airflow
resistance to be measured. See Annex D for additional information.
6.5  Device for measuring the static pressure
The device for measuring the static pressure shall be capable of performing measurements with a low
uncertainty. The uncertainty in the static pressure shall be considered in the uncertainty budget.
6.6  Device for measuring the frequency of the piston
The frequency of the piston shall be determined with low uncertainty. Th

5 Principle
An alternating volume flow with a low frequency, 𝑓𝑓, for example of 2 Hz, is generated by a piston or
similar device (see Figure 1 and Figure 2) moving sinusoidally. This volume flow acts on an air cavity
which is either closed by an airtight termination or terminated by the test specimen mounted in a
measurement cell. The sound pressure level is measured in the air cavity for both cases.
The pressure inside the cavity will be the outside atmospheric pressure modulated by the alternating
flow generated by the piston. The microphone mounted inside the cavity will therefore measure the
pressure difference across the specimen when the test cell with the specimen is mounted.
When the air cavity is closed, the volume flow creates a sound pressure in the air cavity which may be
calculated from the piston movement, dimensional information of the cavity and the atmospheric air
pressure.
When the measurement cell is mounted, the main part of the generated volume flow passes through the
test specimen and a lower sound pressure is observed in the air cavity. The difference between the
sound pressure levels when the vessel is closed and when the test cell is mounted is a direct function of
the airflow resistivity of the test specimen. By the measurement of the sound pressure differences, the
airflow resistance for the test specimen may be computed.
It can be practical to use different piston stroke lengths for the closed vessel and when the test cell is
mounted.

NOTE For materials with a visco-inertial transition frequency below 100 Hz the method described in ISO
9053-1 using static flow may give a different result. Examples of such materials are: a) fibre materials with large
fibres like some metal or plant fibres, b) foams with low porosity but big pores like some metal foams, c) granular
materials with large grains and low porosity like road pavements.
6 Equipment
6.1 General
The equipment shall consist of
a) a device for producing the alternating airflow;
b) a sound level meter or an alternative device for measuring the sound pressure level in a narrow
frequency band (e.g. a fractional-octave band) around the frequency of the piston;
c) a vessel
− containing the air cavity,
− allowing connections to the microphone and the source of the alternating airflow,
− including an airtight termination and a measurement cell;
d) a device for measuring the static pressure;
e) a device for measuring the frequency of the piston;
f) a device for measuring the thickness of the test specimen when it is in position for the test.
6.2 Device for producing the alternating airflow
The alternating airflow shall be produced by a sinusoidally moving piston. The frequency of the piston
movement, 𝑓𝑓, shall be in the range 1 Hz to 4 Hz and known with sufficient accuracy (see Annex C). The

amplitude of the piston stroke ℎ (see Figure 1 and Figure 2) is to be determined, normally by
dimensional measurements. The rms-value of the volume flow, 𝑞𝑞 , produced by the moving piston is
v
𝑞𝑞 =√2⋅𝜋𝜋⋅𝑓𝑓⋅ℎ⋅𝐴𝐴
v P
where
𝑓𝑓 is the frequency of the piston movement, in Hz;
ℎ is the amplitude of the stroke of the piston in m;
𝐴𝐴 is the cross sectional area of the piston, in m².
P
Different stroke lengths may be applied for the measurement with the airtight termination and the test
cell with specimen. The two lengths should be selected to obtain suitable sound pressure levels in both
situations as well as generating the required airflow velocity through the specimen.
ℎ is the amplitude of the stroke of the piston when the air cavity is closed by the airtight
t
termination;
ℎ is the amplitude of the stroke of the piston when the measurement cell with the test specimen
s
is mounted.
The rms-value of the flow velocity through the test specimen in m/s is calculated according to
Formula (1):
√2⋅𝜋𝜋⋅𝑓𝑓⋅ℎ ⋅𝐴𝐴
s P
(1)
𝑢𝑢 =
s
𝐴𝐴
where 𝐴𝐴 is the cross-sectional area of the test specimen, in m², perpendicular to the direction of flow. It
−4 −3
is recommended to use rms-values of the flow velocity between 5 · 10 m/s and 4 · 10 m/s.
NOTE 1 A piston with a diameter of 10 mm and stroke lengths of 1,4 mm (airtight termination) and 14 mm
(measurement cell with specimen) has proven to be appropriate for a measurement cell diameter of 100 mm and
−3 3
an air cavity with a volume of about 10 m .
NOTE 2 The use of different piston frequencies and stroke lengths can be used to demonstrate that the
obtained airflow resistance is independent of the airflow velocity.
NOTE 3 The uncertainty analysis shows that the ratio between the different applied stroke lengths is
important. The ratio can be verified by using a sound level measuring system that covers the pressures generated
by all the applied strokes lengths.
6.3 Sound measuring device
The sound measuring device shall be able to measure sound pressure with the piston frequency. The
applied sound pressure shall be within the linear measurement range for the device.
The sound measuring device shall have a small bandwidth around the piston frequency for reducing
background noise and harmonic distortions.
For all related measurements at a particular piston frequency including measurement of background
noise, the bandwidth of the sound measuring device shall not be changed.

oSIST prEN ISO 9053-2:2020
ISO/DIS 9053-2:2019(E)

The sound measuring device may be a sound level meter, including microphones and cables,
conforming to the requirements of IEC 61672-1 class 1 or class 2, and with fractional-octave band filters
meeting the requirements of IEC 61260-1 class 1 or class 2.
NOTE 1 The sound measuring device is mainly used to determine the difference in sound pressure levels for
sound with a constant frequency. Level linearity performance at this frequency is therefore the most important
property.
NOTE 2 It is important that sound measuring device only measures the sound with frequencies close to the
frequency of the piston in order to reduce the effect of harmonic distortions and background noise. The band
limiting function can be obtained by the use of a fractional-octave band filter or FFT-analyser/technique.
6.4 Vessel and measurement cell
The vessel and the measurement cell shall be in the shape of a circular cylinder or a rectangular
parallelepiped (preferably with a square cross-section in the latter case). The vessel shall include
appropriate seals to enable a leak free mounting of the airtight termination and the measurement cell.
The vessel and the airtight termination shall be sufficiently stiff to avoid volume changes under
alternating pressure conditions. The volume 𝑉𝑉 of the air cavity inside the closed vessel with the airtight
termination mounted shall include all connecting pipes such as to the microphone and to the piston.
The piston shall be in centre position when the volume is measured.
The diameter or smallest edge of the measurement cell shall be chosen depending on the specimens to
test. In any case, the minimum diameter or smallest edge of the measurement cell shall be 29 mm.
Furthermore, the air cavity shall have a cross section which is at least the same as the cross section of
the measurement cell. Various measurement cells can be used as long as they fulfil all the requirements
of this standard.
The vessel and the measurement cell should be made such that the airflow is along the flow direction to
be measured. This is normally perpendicular to the surface of the specimen to be measured. The
measurement cell may include two grills or perforated plates for keeping the test specimen in position.
It is important that the test specimen do not move due to the alternating air flow. The supports shall
have an open area of minimum 50 %, evenly distributed. The holes in the support shall have a diameter
of not less than 3 mm. The airflow resistance of the support should be less than 1 % of the airflow
resistance to be measured. See informative Annex D for information.
6.5 Device for measuring the static pressure
The device for measuring the static pressure shall be capable of performing measurements with a low
uncertainty. The uncertainty in the static pressure shall be considered in the uncertainty budget.
6.6 Device for measuring the frequency of the piston
The frequency of the piston shall be determined with low uncertainty. The uncertainty in the frequency
shall be considered in the uncertainty budget. The frequency may be measured from the microphone
signal by the use of a frequency counter or by frequency analysis.
7 Test specimens
7.1 Shape
The test specimen may be circular or rectangular, corresponding to the shape of the measurement cell.

7.2 Dimensions
7.2.1 Lateral dimensions
The lateral dimensions of a specimen shall contain a minimum of 10 pores for a foam specimen,
10 fibres for a fibrous material specimen, 10 grains for a granular specimen. In case no information
about the microstructure of the material (number of pores, fibres or grains per millimetre) is available,
a minimum diameter of 95 mm or a smaller edge of 90 mm minimum is required for the material
specimens.
The measurement cell shall have the same lateral dimensions as the material specimen to test. See 7.2
to avoid leaks between the measurement cell and the specimen.
Care should be taken to avoid dimensional distortion of the test specimen.
7.2.2 Thickness
The thickness of the test specimen shall be chosen to obtain a measurable sound pressure level above
self-noise in the instrument and noise in the environment.
The test specimen shall be mounted in the measurement cell in a way to prevent altering the thickness
of the specimen.
If the test specimens available are not sufficiently thick to produce a suitable sound pressure level, test
specimens chosen in the same way, may be superimposed if it does not modify the material microscopic
structure. In particular, when test specimens of fibrous materials or non-woven textiles are
superimposed, the same orientation of the fibres shall be used for the individual superimposed
specimens. For perforated plates or woven textiles, holes or patterns should all be superimposed.
7.3 Number of test specimens
The required number of test specimens depends on the type of the material and is commonly defined in
product standards. Usually three to six samples are required.
8 Test procedure
7.1 Place the test specimen, prepared as described in Clause 6, in the measurement cell.
7.2 Ensure that the edges are properly sealed. A thin layer of petroleum jelly, thread seal tape or rings
may be used to seal the edges of specimens. When using petroleum jelly, care should be taken to avoid
penetration of the petroleum jelly inside the material specimen.
7.3 Bring the device for measuring the thickness of the test specimens into contact with the upper
surface of the test specimens, compressing it lightly if necessary.
7.4 Note the thickness and use this measurement to determine the free or the compressed volume
and from this derive the free or the compressed density of the test specimen when in position.
