Some aspects of acoustic insulation however are different. The purpose of this specification is to draw attention to them for the guidance of both the installer and the noise control engineer. ‘PSit | of this specification is directed towards the installer. It defines the particular details to.which he shall pay attention to achieve the required noise reduction. Part Il is intended for the guidance of the noise control engineer, and specifies three classes of insulation, The choice of these will depend on the expected or measured nc from the pipe. A general description is given of how this should be derived from equipment data or from measurements in operating units. It is emphasized that the ultimate success of acoustic insulation depends on the quality of installation; small gaps or bridging effects can have a far greater effect on the acoustic properties than on the thermal properties and may completely negate the acoustic performance. A regular inspection during installation is therefore an important aspect. This specification is concurrent with the EEMUA (OCMA) publication NWG-5. However it contains additional information with particular reference to Group use. It is intended to for use in oil refineries, chemical plants. gas plants and, where applicable, in exploration, production and new ventures. Unless otherwise authorized by SIPM, the distribution of this specification is confined to companies belonging to or managed by the Royal Dutch/Shell Group, and to contractors and manufacturers/suppliers nominated by them. All publications referred to in this specification are listed in Section 10. Where cross references are made, the number of the section or sub-section referred to is shown in brackets.Page 4 12 13 DEFINITIONS For the purpose of this specification, the following definitions shall hold: Shall and Should — the word ‘shall’ is to be understood as mandatory and the word ‘should’ as strongly recommended to comply with the requirements of this specification. ‘The Principal is the party which initiates the project and ultimately pays for its design and construction. ‘The Principal will generally specify the technical requirements. “The Principal may also include an agent or consultant, authorized to act for the Principal. The Contractor is the party which carries out all or part of the design, engineering, procurement, construction and’ commissioning for the project. The Principal may sometimes undertake all or part of the duties of the Contractor. ACOUSTIC INSULATION TERMS Pipe In this specification the word pipe is Used to refer to all ‘equipment included in the Scope, unless the context indicates otherwise. ‘Acoustic insulation >r), m 1 sidistance from the pipeaxis, m {rnormally <(1+%0) -.m) Lylxstl =the sound pressure level at 8 distance r from the axis of the pipe, at 2 distance x from the source, counted along the pipe log =logarithm to base 10Page 16 (0) NOTE: Petenes (c2) (3) vue for x i 1m: in thi sub-section, where attenuation along the pipe is considered ‘egigible, other values of x may also be used, If the pipe is long, it may be worth taking into account the attenuation along the length of the pipe, which is expressed by the formula Loe) = L,(1,) ~ Bx/D (ap) 2) Lt) see equation (1) L101 is the sound pressure level from the pipe at a distance. ‘of 1 m away from the noise source, at the same distance + from pipe axis as in L(x, 1) q D the diameter of the pipe (x and D in the same units, e.g metres) B is the attenuation factor, (8) in which: Unless otherwise specified the value of f shall be 0.06 dB for pipes carrying gas or vapour, and the length of pipe should exceed (30/A) before attenuation should be taken into account: If, for a particular application, firm evidence is available that the value for Bis different, this different value shall be used.

The errors involved in applying equation (1) for pipes longer than (30/6) and in applying equation (3) for shorter pipes can be shown to be less than 38. The contribution of the pipe to the noise in the reverberant space is calculated from its sound power level and should be added to the contributions from other sources. For environmental noise the contribution of the pipe to the total sound power level of the plant, or to the sound pressure level at the neighbourhood point should be calculated. Unless otherwise specified such calcylations shall be done in accordance with OCMA specification NWG-1 If allowable limits are exceeded by the combined effect of noise sources. the most economical method of reducing noise should be found.9.2 OEP 31,46.00.31-Gen, Page 17 THE REQUIRED ATTENUATION ~ OPERATING UNITS In operating units the assessment of pipe noise can be based on measurements and where the pipe noise is significantly higher than the background noise it may be measured directly as airborne noise. - Again, piping upstream and downstream of the source shall be considered, separately.

Appendix 11 - page 1 DERIVATION OF INSERTION LOSS IN TERMS OF dB(A) The decision to apply dcoustic’insulation will usually be based on a measured or calculated noise level in dB(A) of the unsilenced pipe, but 2 calculation of the effectiveness of acoustic insulation in terms of dB(A) can only be done on the basis of an octave band spectrum of the noise. Where possible. the actual spectrum of the pipe under consideration should be obtained. If the noise level in dB(A) is the only quantity available, the octave band spectrum may be estimated usiag Table’. This table gives a typical spectral shape of noise from pipes attached to various types of sources in the form of a correction to be subtracted from the nvise level in dB(AT.

The effect of acoustic insulation can now be obtained by substracting the insertion loss of the type of insulation considered, per octave band. The sound level in dB(A) after insulation may be obtained by substracting the A-weighting factors from the octave band levels according to Table A.2 and by adding these A-weighted octave band levels using the following equation: 7 L(A) = 10 + fog lantilog Lygy/10 + ...-. + antilog Lpg/10) in which: L, (Al = A-weighted sound level lpea = A-weighted octave band levels for 63 Hz octave band, etc,* Appendix 11 - page 2 TABLE A.2 Octave band 125 | 250 | 500 | 1000 | 2000 | 4000 | 8000 Hz A-weighting 1] 9 3 o} -1} -1 1 ‘The insertion loss in dBIA) equals the difference between the dB(A) levels for bare and insulated pipe.
