Changes in absolute hearing threshold depending on sound pressure level of a previous sound

Sound pressure level in a municipal preschool

AIM  To evaluate the sound pressure level to which preschool students are exposed. METHOD  This was a prospective, quantitative, nonexperimental, and descriptive study. To achieve the aim of the study we used an audio dosimeter. The sound pressure level (SPL) measurements were obtained for 2 age based classrooms. Preschool I and II. The measurements were obtained over 4 days in 8-hour session...

Experimental investigation on sound of a centrifugal blower and fluctuating pressure on its volute

The Research has shown that the primary sound source in centrifugal turbomachines is the blade passing frequency noise, which is caused by due to impac rotor exit flow with the volute and the wild pressure fluctuations. In this paper, a centrifugal blower with forward facing blades has been selected and the sound created by it in the output channel has been investigated in different operating c...

Sound pressure level generated by individual portable sound equipment.

INTRODUCTION The use of Personal Digital Audio Players can cause hearing injuries, as the sound is generated directly in the ear canal. It is believed that different types of headphones can cause different amplifications, since they cause changes in the volume and resonance of the ear canal according to their depth. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the sound pressure to which young ind...

Relationship between Sound Pressure Levels and the Risk of Hearing Loss using Personal Protective Equipment in Manufacturing Industries

Introduction: The sound pressure levels caused by work environment noise, along with the effects and ways of reducing it, are one of the most important issues in the manufacturing industry. Noise is the most common pollutant in the industrial environment, which can cause many disorders in various organs of the body, such as the auditory and vascular systems. This study aimed to investigate the ...
