Noise Control Activities in Ship Projects: A Partnership with HBK

Noise control activities throughout the entire lifecycle of a new ship project, from conceptual design to validation in official sea trials, are essential to meet comfort noise requirements, airborne noise radiated externally, and underwater radiated noise specified in technical specifications. Design stages related to internal and external acoustic comfort are generally addressed using simulation calculation tools, and the results of these calculations are validated during construction and official sea trials through various measurement and noise testing campaigns, such as airborne noise isolation measurements, comfort noise measurements, acoustic power measurements, structural noise measurements, transmissibility measurements, underwater radiated noise measurements, etc.

#HBK has one of the most extensive catalogs of solutions for acoustic measurements and tests. HBK provides expert and reliable acoustic solutions to tackle validation stages and meet the various noise requirements commonly established in the contractual specifications of a new ship project.

TSI has been a user of Brüel & Kjaer Solutions (recently HBK) since the beginning of its activity in 1983. The use of this type of equipment is fundamental to TSI’s daily activities, using them for routine measurements, validation measurements, and as tools for research on phenomena.

From TSI, we want to express our gratitude to #HBK for their full dedication to the field of acoustics, providing valuable technological solutions since their origins in 1942 when the evolved Brüel & Kjaer was founded by Per Vilhelm Brüel and Viggo Kjær to be a leading Danish multinational engineering and electronics company headquartered in Nærum. Therefore, at TSI, we are very thankful to #HBK for their contribution to the development and continuous improvement of our activities. In this particular instance, we appreciate their virtual space on their website where, through the following link, you can learn more details about our HBK-TSI technical and professional synergy.
