These phenomena are: absorption in air and by the sound-absorbing material covering the walls and the coincidence effect. The absorption in the air can be neglected in small size enclosures for low ultrasonic frequencies (20-30 kHz). The coincidence plays a role in decrease of the sound insulation, however the main role play the leaks. The boards made of ceramic fibers have been chosen as the optimal sound-absorbing material. They are dense and have deeply porous structures. The enclosure for insulation of 20-kHz noise produced by a welding machine has been designed and manufactured, and reductions of 25 dB of peak and Leq levels have been achieved.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Sound-Absorbing and Insulating Enclosures for Ultrasonic Range}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/107541/PDF-MASTER/71.pdf}, doi={10.2478/v10168-010-0014-4}, keywords={ultrasonic noise, sound absorbing and insulating enclosure, welder}, }
