Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO 15086 may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 15086-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 131, Fluid power systems,

Introduction
In hydraulic fluid power systems, power is transmitted and controlled through a liquid under pressure within an
enclosed circuit. During the process of converting mechanical power into hydraulic fluid power, flow and pressure
fluctuations and structure-borne vibrations are generated.
Hydro-acoustical characteristics of hydraulic components can be measured with acceptable accuracy if the speed of
sound in the fluid is precisely known.
The measurement technique for determining the speed of sound in a pipe, as described in this part of ISO 15086, is
based upon the application of plane wave transmission line theory to the analysis of pressure fluctuations in rigid
pipes [1].
Two different measurement approaches are presented, namely the use of:
� three pressure transducers in a pipe,
� acoustic antiresonance in a closed-end pipe system.
The three-pressure-transducer method should be used at any time when the speed of sound is to be measured
under the effective working conditions in a system.
The antiresonance method should be used to produce a table of speed-of-sound data as a function of mean
pressure and temperature for a particular fluid.

c) fluid temperature;
shall meet the requirements for "industrial class" accuracy of measurement, i.e. class C as given in annex B.

---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
ISO 15086-2:2000(E)
5.2 Dynamic measurements
The instruments used to measure pressure ripple shall have the following characteristics:
a) resonant frequencyW 30 kHz;
b) linearityW� 1%;
c) preferably include acceleration compensation.
The instruments need not respond to steady-state pressure. It may be advantageous to filter out any steady-state
signal component using a high-pass filter. This filter shall not introduce an additional amplitude or phase error
°
exceeding 0,5 % or 0,5 respectively of the current measurement.
5.3 Frequency analysis of pressure ripple
A suitable instrument shall be used to measure the amplitude and phase of the pressure ripple.
The instrument shall be capable of measuring the pressure ripple from the pressure transducers such that, for a
particular harmonic, the measurements from each transducer are performed simultaneously and synchronised in
time with respect to each other.
The instrument shall have an accuracy and resolution for harmonic measurements of
a) amplitude within � 0,5 %;
°
b) phase within � 0,5 ;
c) frequency within � 0,5 %;
over the frequency range from 25 Hz to 2 500 Hz.
5.4 Uncertainty
Compliance with the above specification will result in an uncertainty in measurement of speed of sound of less than
� 3%.
6 Hydraulic noise generator
6.1 General
Any type of hydraulic noise generator may be used, provided that sufficient pressure ripple is created at the
pressure transducers to allow accurate measurements to be taken.
EXAMPLE Pumps and motors create a pressure ripple consisting essentially of many harmonics of the fundamental
frequency. In these cases, the fundamental frequency is equal to the product of the shaft rotational frequency and the number
of gear teeth, vanes or pistons, etc. (as appropriate to the machine employed).
Suitable alternatives include:
� an auxiliary valve with a rotating spool allowing flow to pass to the return line over part of its rotation;
� an electrohydraulic servo-valve driven by a frequency generator.
� The servo-valve may be operated with a white noise signal in order to obtain significant pressure ripple
measurements at each frequency of interest.

wall of the pipe.
Two alternative specifications for the measurement pipe and transducer position are given, in accordance with the
method employed.

ISO 15086-2:2000(E)
8.2 Thermal insulation
Temperature shall be measured at both ends of the measurement pipe. The difference in temperature between the
two ends of the measurement pipe shall not exceed 2 °C at any test condition. If necessary, sufficient thermal
lagging shall be applied to the measurement pipe to enable this requirement to be met.
8.3 Method 1: Three-transducer method
8.3.1 This method is suitable when the velocity of sound is to be measured at the same time as other hydro-
acoustical characteristics of hydraulic components, such as impedance, source flow ripple or transfer matrix
coefficients. The measurement pipe shall be installed at the place in the test system where measurement of the
speed of sound is needed. Several measurement pipes may be used simultaneously, if required.
The measurement pipe shall be uniform and straight. Its internal diameter shall be between 80 % and 120 % of the
diameter of the pipes, or component ports, to which it is connected. The pipe should be supported in such a manner
that vibration is minimized.
For cases where other hydro-acoustic properties are not being measured simultaneously, a pump (and if necessary,
a hydraulic noise generator) shall be mounted at one end of the measurement pipe. The other end shall be
terminated by a loading valve without free-moving internal parts, such as a needle valve.
Mean pressure shall be measured at the upstream end of the measurement pipe.
8.3.2 Three pressure transducers are required for Method 1, configured as shown in Figure 1. The transducer
spacing shall be selected according to the standard specifications of hydro-acoustical measurements to be carried
out simultaneously. Otherwise, the distances L and L' between the pressure transducers shall be as specified in
Table 3.
Table 3 — Spacing of transducers: Method 1
L 330 mm �2mm
L'
470 mm �2mm
The distance between each end of the measurement pipe and the nearest pressure transducer shall be at least
10 d, where d is the internal diameter of the pipe. The distances L and L' between the transducers, as shown in
Figure 1, shall be measured to an accuracy of � 0,5 mm.
No other components shall be connected between the inlet port and outlet port of the measurement pipe.

ISO 15086-2:2000(E)
8.4 Method 2: Antiresonance method
8.4.1 This method can be used to produce a data chart of the speed of sound for a particular fluid. Due to the
pressure resonances that are created in the system, this method is not appropriate when other hydro-acoustical
measurements are to be undertaken.
8.4.2 An appropriate test rig is presented schematically in Figure 2 a). The loading valve shall not contain free-
moving parts. A needle valve is an example of a suitable loading valve. The measurement pipe takes the form of a
closed-end side-branch line connected to the pump/pipe/loading-valve circuit as shown. It is important that the fluid
in the measurement pipe is at as uniform a temperature as possible, and does not contain gas bubbles. To achieve
these objectives, the measurement pipe is terminated by a bleed valve. A needle valve is an example of a suitable
bleed valve. Prior to measurements being taken, the bleed valve is opened for a period of time sufficient to flush the
pipe of gas bubbles and to stabilize temperature. The measurement pipe shall be orientated downwards with the
bleed valve below the level of the through-flow pipe to prevent the trapping of air in the measurement pipe during
testing. It is important that the bleed valve does not introduce significant extra volume at the end of the line when
the valve is in the closed position.
The pressure transducers, PT and PT in Figure 2 a), are located at each end of the measurement pipe. It is
1 2
essential that transducer PT is mounted as closely as possible to the end of the pipe. Moreover, the location of
2
transducer PT should be as close as possible to the point where the measurement pipe is connected to the main
1
circuit. Figure 2 b) provides an example of how these requirements may be achieved. In this example, the
measurement pipe is terminated by a purpose-built housing which contains the needle valve assembly.
The hydraulic components necessary to obtain the appropriate test conditions may, inherently, generate sufficient
pressure pulsation levels to allow satisfactory frequency-spectrum analysis to be performed. Should this not be the
case, a separate hydraulic noise generator shall be connected to the circuit, as shown in Figure 2 a).
In order to maximize the pressure pulsation levels, the distance between the pump (or the noise generator if in use)
and the loading valve should not be greater than one-tenth of the measurement pipe length.
8.4.3 The measurement pipe shall be a uniform, rigid, straight metal pipe. The internal diameter of the pipe shall
be between 50 % and 100 % of the diameter of the line where it is connected. This pipe shall be supported in such
a manner that pipe vibration is minimized.
The distance, l, between the pressure transducers shall be defined according to the first acoustic antiresonance
frequency f by equation (1).

8.5 Calibration of pressure transducers
Calibration of pressure transducers and signal conditioning is necessary. Perform relative calibration by mounting
the pressure transducers in a common block such that they measure the same pressure ripple. Construct this
common block such that the pressure transducers are at the same axial position and no more than one internal
diameter of the measurement pipe apart.
Measure the amplitude and phase relationship between the pressure transducers for a range of frequencies
spanning the complete range of interest with one transducer used as a reference. For piezoresistive transducers,
the reference transducer can be calibrated statically using, for example, a deadweight testing machine.
If piezoelectric transducers and charge amplifiers are employed, a calibrated piezoresistive transducer may be used
as a reference for dynamic calibration purposes.
If the amplitude or phase difference between the transducers exceeds 1 % or 0,5° respectively, correct for the
differences in the analysis of the test data (see 9.3 and 10.3). Record the transfer functions.

9.1 Prior to the commencement of tests, operate the hydraulic system for a sufficient period of time to purge air
from the system and to stabilize all variables, including fluid condition, to within the limits given in Table 1. If a speed
of sound test is to be performed at the same time as other hydro-acoustical measurements, conditions to the
standard relevant to those measurements can be used.

and calculate the coherence function S at each frequency f over the frequency range. Typical examples of the

calculated.
9.5 Calculate the mean fluid velocity by dividing the mean flow by the internal cross-sectional area of the
measurement pipe. If the mean fluid velocity is greater than 5 % of any speed of sound measurement, then the
method is invalid and results shall not be reported.
10 Test procedure for Method 2
10.1 Prior to the commencement of a series of tests, operate the hydraulic system and noise generator (if
included) for a sufficient period of time to purge air from the system and to stabilize all variables, including fluid
condition, to within the limits given in Table 1. Particular attention should be given to obtaining a representative fluid
characteristic, especially the bulk modulus.
The bleed valve should be fully open to allow flow through the measurement pipe during this stabilization period.
The restrictor valve downstream of the bleed valve should be adjusted to create a mean pressure approximately
0,5 MPa below the desired test pressure during this phase. Immediately before pressure transducer measurements
are taken, the bleed valve should be closed and, if necessary, the mean pressure re-established through
adjustment of the loading valve.
Warning — No safety valves are included in the system. Personnel performing tests should exercise great
care to ensure that excessive and dangerous pressures are not created when adjusting restrictor valves.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO 15086 may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 15086-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 131, Fluid power systems,

Introduction
In hydraulic fluid power systems, power is transmitted and controlled through a liquid under pressure within an
enclosed circuit. During the process of converting mechanical power into hydraulic fluid power, flow and pressure
fluctuations and structure-borne vibrations are generated.
Hydro-acoustical characteristics of hydraulic components can be measured with acceptable accuracy if the speed of
sound in the fluid is precisely known.
The measurement technique for determining the speed of sound in a pipe, as described in this part of ISO 15086, is
based upon the application of plane wave transmission line theory to the analysis of pressure fluctuations in rigid
pipes [1].
Two different measurement approaches are presented, namely the use of:
� three pressure transducers in a pipe,
� acoustic antiresonance in a closed-end pipe system.
The three-pressure-transducer method should be used at any time when the speed of sound is to be measured
under the effective working conditions in a system.
The antiresonance method should be used to produce a table of speed-of-sound data as a function of mean
pressure and temperature for a particular fluid.

5.2 Dynamic measurements
The instruments used to measure pressure ripple shall have the following characteristics:
a) resonant frequencyW 30 kHz;
b) linearityW� 1%;
c) preferably include acceleration compensation.
The instruments need not respond to steady-state pressure. It may be advantageous to filter out any steady-state
signal component using a high-pass filter. This filter shall not introduce an additional amplitude or phase error
°
exceeding 0,5 % or 0,5 respectively of the current measurement.
5.3 Frequency analysis of pressure ripple
A suitable instrument shall be used to measure the amplitude and phase of the pressure ripple.
The instrument shall be capable of measuring the pressure ripple from the pressure transducers such that, for a
particular harmonic, the measurements from each transducer are performed simultaneously and synchronised in
time with respect to each other.
The instrument shall have an accuracy and resolution for harmonic measurements of
a) amplitude within � 0,5 %;
°
b) phase within � 0,5 ;
c) frequency within � 0,5 %;
over the frequency range from 25 Hz to 2 500 Hz.
5.4 Uncertainty
Compliance with the above specification will result in an uncertainty in measurement of speed of sound of less than
� 3%.
6 Hydraulic noise generator
6.1 General
Any type of hydraulic noise generator may be used, provided that sufficient pressure ripple is created at the
pressure transducers to allow accurate measurements to be taken.
EXAMPLE Pumps and motors create a pressure ripple consisting essentially of many harmonics of the fundamental
frequency. In these cases, the fundamental frequency is equal to the product of the shaft rotational frequency and the number
of gear teeth, vanes or pistons, etc. (as appropriate to the machine employed).
Suitable alternatives include:
� an auxiliary valve with a rotating spool allowing flow to pass to the return line over part of its rotation;
� an electrohydraulic servo-valve driven by a frequency generator.
� The servo-valve may be operated with a white noise signal in order to obtain significant pressure ripple
measurements at each frequency of interest.

8.2 Thermal insulation
Temperature shall be measured at both ends of the measurement pipe. The difference in temperature between the
two ends of the measurement pipe shall not exceed 2 °C at any test condition. If necessary, sufficient thermal
lagging shall be applied to the measurement pipe to enable this requirement to be met.
8.3 Method 1: Three-transducer method
8.3.1 This method is suitable when the velocity of sound is to be measured at the same time as other hydro-
acoustical characteristics of hydraulic components, such as impedance, source flow ripple or transfer matrix
coefficients. The measurement pipe shall be installed at the place in the test system where measurement of the
speed of sound is needed. Several measurement pipes may be used simultaneously, if required.
The measurement pipe shall be uniform and straight. Its internal diameter shall be between 80 % and 120 % of the
diameter of the pipes, or component ports, to which it is connected. The pipe should be supported in such a manner
that vibration is minimized.
For cases where other hydro-acoustic properties are not being measured simultaneously, a pump (and if necessary,
a hydraulic noise generator) shall be mounted at one end of the measurement pipe. The other end shall be
terminated by a loading valve without free-moving internal parts, such as a needle valve.
Mean pressure shall be measured at the upstream end of the measurement pipe.
8.3.2 Three pressure transducers are required for Method 1, configured as shown in Figure 1. The transducer
spacing shall be selected according to the standard specifications of hydro-acoustical measurements to be carried
out simultaneously. Otherwise, the distances L and L' between the pressure transducers shall be as specified in
Table 3.

L 330 mm �2mm
L'
470 mm �2mm
The distance between each end of the measurement pipe and the nearest pressure transducer shall be at least
10 d, where d is the internal diameter of the pipe. The distances L and L' between the transducers, as shown in
Figure 1, shall be measured to an accuracy of � 0,5 mm.
No other components shall be connected between the inlet port and outlet port of the measurement pipe.

8.4 Method 2: Antiresonance method
8.4.1 This method can be used to produce a data chart of the speed of sound for a particular fluid. Due to the
pressure resonances that are created in the system, this method is not appropriate when other hydro-acoustical
measurements are to be undertaken.
8.4.2 An appropriate test rig is presented schematically in Figure 2 a). The loading valve shall not contain free-
moving parts. A needle valve is an example of a suitable loading valve. The measurement pipe takes the form of a
closed-end side-branch line connected to the pump/pipe/loading-valve circuit as shown. It is important that the fluid
in the measurement pipe is at as uniform a temperature as possible, and does not contain gas bubbles. To achieve
these objectives, the measurement pipe is terminated by a bleed valve. A needle valve is an example of a suitable
bleed valve. Prior to measurements being taken, the bleed valve is opened for a period of time sufficient to flush the
pipe of gas bubbles and to stabilize temperature. The measurement pipe shall be orientated downwards with the
bleed valve below the level of the through-flow pipe to prevent the trapping of air in the measurement pipe during
testing. It is important that the bleed valve does not introduce significant extra volume at the end of the line when
the valve is in the closed position.
The pressure transducers, PT and PT in Figure 2 a), are located at each end of the measurement pipe. It is
1 2
essential that transducer PT is mounted as closely as possible to the end of the pipe. Moreover, the location of
2
transducer PT should be as close as possible to the point where the measurement pipe is connected to the main
1
circuit. Figure 2 b) provides an example of how these requirements may be achieved. In this example, the
measurement pipe is terminated by a purpose-built housing which contains the needle valve assembly.
The hydraulic components necessary to obtain the appropriate test conditions may, inherently, generate sufficient
pressure pulsation levels to allow satisfactory frequency-spectrum analysis to be performed. Should this not be the
case, a separate hydraulic noise generator shall be connected to the circuit, as shown in Figure 2 a).
In order to maximize the pressure pulsation levels, the distance between the pump (or the noise generator if in use)
and the loading valve should not be greater than one-tenth of the measurement pipe length.
8.4.3 The measurement pipe shall be a uniform, rigid, straight metal pipe. The internal diameter of the pipe shall
be between 50 % and 100 % of the diameter of the line where it is connected. This pipe shall be supported in such
a manner that pipe vibration is minimized.
The distance, l, between the pressure transducers shall be defined according to the first acoustic antiresonance
frequency f by equation (1).

8.5 Calibration of pressure transducers
Calibration of pressure transducers and signal conditioning is necessary. Perform relative calibration by mounting
the pressure transducers in a common block such that they measure the same pressure ripple. Construct this
common block such that the pressure transducers are at the same axial position and no more than one internal
diameter of the measurement pipe apart.
Measure the amplitude and phase relationship between the pressure transducers for a range of frequencies
spanning the complete range of interest with one transducer used as a reference. For piezoresistive transducers,
the reference transducer can be calibrated statically using, for example, a deadweight testing machine.
If piezoelectric transducers and charge amplifiers are employed, a calibrated piezoresistive transducer may be used
as a reference for dynamic calibration purposes.
If the amplitude or phase difference between the transducers exceeds 1 % or 0,5° respectively, correct for the
differences in the analysis of the test data (see 9.3 and 10.3). Record the transfer functions.

9.1 Prior to the commencement of tests, operate the hydraulic system for a sufficient period of time to purge air
from the system and to stabilize all variables, including fluid condition, to within the limits given in Table 1. If a speed

calculated.
9.5 Calculate the mean fluid velocity by dividing the mean flow by the internal cross-sectional area of the
measurement pipe. If the mean fluid velocity is greater than 5 % of any speed of sound measurement, then the
method is invalid and results shall not be reported.
10 Test procedure for Method 2
10.1 Prior to the commencement of a series of tests, operate the hydraulic system and noise generator (if
included) for a sufficient period of time to purge air from the system and to stabilize all variables, including fluid
condition, to within the limits given in Table 1. Particular attention should be given to obtaining a representative fluid
characteristic, especially the bulk modulus.
The bleed valve should be fully open to allow flow through the measurement pipe during this stabilization period.
The restrictor valve downstream of the bleed valve should be adjusted to create a mean pressure approximately
0,5 MPa below the desired test pressure during this phase. Immediately before pressure transducer measurements
are taken, the bleed valve should be closed and, if necessary, the mean pressure re-established through
adjustment of the loading valve.
Warning — No safety valves are included in the system. Personnel performing tests should exercise great
care to ensure that excessive and dangerous pressures are not created when adjusting restrictor valves.

Avant-propos
L'ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération mondiale d'organismes nationaux de
normalisation (comités membres de l'ISO). L'élaboration des Normes internationales est en général confiée aux
comités techniques de l'ISO. Chaque comité membre intéressé par une étude a le droit de faire partie du comité
technique créé à cet effet. Les organisations internationales, gouvernementales et non gouvernementales, en
liaison avec l'ISO participent également aux travaux. L'ISO collabore étroitement avec la Commission
électrotechnique internationale (CEI) en ce qui concerne la normalisation électrotechnique.
Les Normes internationales sont rédigées conformément aux règles données dans les Directives ISO/CEI, Partie 3.
Les projets de Normes internationales adoptés par les comités techniques sont soumis aux comités membres pour
vote. Leur publication comme Normes internationales requiert l'approbation de 75 % au moins des comités
membres votants.

ISO 15086-2:2000(F)
Introduction
Dans les systèmes de transmissions hydrauliques, l'énergie est transmise et commandée par l'intermédiaire d'un
fluide sous pression circulant en circuit fermé. Le processus de transformation de l'énergie mécanique en énergie
hydraulique génère des fluctuations de l'écoulement et de la pression ainsi que des vibrations de la structure.
Les caractéristiques hydro-acoustiques des composants hydrauliques peuvent être mesurées avec une précision
acceptable lorsque la vitesse du son émis par le fluide est connue de façon précise.
La méthode de mesurage pour l'évaluation de la vitesse du son dans un tube, comme décrit dans la présente
partie de l’ISO 15086, est fondée sur l'application de la théorie de la ligne de transmission à onde plane à l'analyse
des fluctuations de pression dans des tubes rigides [1].
Deux méthodes différentes sont présentées, à savoir:
� trois capteurs de pression dans un tube;
� l’antirésonance acoustique dans un système de tubes à extrémité fermée.
Il convient d’utiliser la méthode des trois capteurs de pression chaque fois que la vitesse du son est à mesurer
dans les conditions de service efficaces d'un système.
Il convient d’utiliser la méthode antirésonance pour produire un tableau de vitesse des données acoustiques en
fonction de la pression et de la température moyennes d'un fluide particulier.

5.1 Mesures statiques
Les instruments utilisés pour mesurer
a) l'écoulement moyen (Méthode 1 uniquement);

doivent satisfaire l'exigence relative à l’exactitude de mesurage de «classe industrielle», c'est-à-dire la classe C
donnée dans l'annexe B.
© ISO 2000 – Tous droits réservés 3

---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
ISO 15086-2:2000(F)
5.2 Mesures dynamiques
Les instruments utilisés pour mesurer l'onde de pression doivent avoir les caractéristiques suivantes:
a) fréquence de résonanceW 30 kHz;
b) linéaritéW� 1%;
c) compensation d'accélération souhaitable.
Il n'est pas nécessaire que les instruments correspondent à une pression en régime établi, et il peut être
avantageux de filtrer toute composante de signal en régime établi à l'aide d'un filtre passe-haut. Ce filtre ne doit
pas générer d'erreur d'amplitude ou de phase supplémentaire supérieure à 0,5 % ou 0,5° respectivement, de la
mesure courante.
5.3 Analyse de fréquence de l'onde de pression
Un instrument approprié doit être utilisé pour mesurer l'amplitude et la phase de l'onde de pression.
L'instrument doit pouvoir mesurer l'onde de pression à partir des capteurs de pression de telle sorte que, pour un
harmonique particulier, les mesures réalisées à partir de chaque capteur soient effectuées simultanément et de
manière synchronisée les unes par rapport aux autres.
La précision et la résolution de l'instrument pour les mesures d'harmonique doivent être les suivantes:
a) amplitude:� 0,5 %;
b) phase:� 0,5°;
c) fréquence:� 0,5 %;
sur une gamme de fréquences comprise entre 25 Hz et 2 500 Hz.
5.4 Incertitude
La conformité à la spécification ci-dessus donnera une incertitude de la vitesse du son inférieure à� 3%.
6 Générateur de bruit hydraulique
6.1 Généralités
Tout type de générateur de bruit hydraulique peut être utilisé à condition qu'il crée une onde de pression suffisante
au niveau des capteurs de pression permettant ainsi la réalisation de mesures exactes.
EXEMPLE Les pompes et les moteurs créent une onde de pression composée principalement de nombreux harmoniques
de la fréquence fondamentale. Dans ces cas, la fréquence fondamentale est égale au produit de la fréquence de rotation de
l’axe et du nombre de dents de l'engrenage, de palettes ou de pistons, etc. (selon la machine utilisée).
Des méthodes alternatives appropriées comprennent:
� un distributeur auxiliaire équipé d'un tiroir tournant permettant au flux de se diriger vers la canalisation de
retour grâce à sa rotation partielle;
� un servodistributeur électro-hydraulique entraîné par un générateur de fréquence. Le servo-distributeur peut
être déclenché par un signal de bruit blanc afin d'obtenir des mesures d'onde de pression significatives à
chaque fréquence intéressante.

8 Banc d'essai
8.1 Généralités
Si, à toute condition d'essai, les amplitudes d'ondes de pression sont trop faibles pour pouvoir réaliser une analyse
satisfaisante du spectre de fréquences, un autre générateur de bruit doit être choisi.
Les capteurs de pression doivent être montés de telle sorte que leurs diaphragmes soient au même niveau que la
paroi intérieure du tube à � 0,5 mm.
Deux spécifications alternatives relatives au tube de mesure et à la position du capteur sont données
conformément à la méthode utilisée.
8.2 Isolation thermique
La température doit être mesurée aux deux extrémités du tube de mesure. La différence de température entre les
deux extrémités du tube de mesure ne doit en aucun cas dépasser 2 °C quelle que soit la condition d'essai. Si
nécessaire, un calorifugeage thermique suffisant doit être appliqué au tube de mesure pour pouvoir satisfaire cette
exigence.
8.3 Méthode 1: Méthode des trois capteurs
8.3.1 Cette méthode peut être utilisée lorsque la vitesse du son doit être mesurée en même temps que les
autres caractéristiques hydro-acoustiques des composants hydrauliques telles que l'impédance, l'onde
d'écoulement de la source ou les coefficients de la matrice-transfert. Le tube de mesure doit être installé dans le
système d'essai à l'endroit où la vitesse du son doit être mesurée. Si nécessaire, plusieurs tubes de mesure
peuvent être utilisés simultanément.
Le tube de mesure doit être uniforme et droit. Son diamètre intérieur doit être compris entre 80 % et 120 % du
diamètre des tubes, ou des orifices de composants, auxquels il est raccordé. Il convient que le tube soit soutenu de
manière à réduire toute vibration.
Dans les cas où les autres propriétés hydro-acoustiques ne sont pas mesurées simultanément, une pompe (et, si
nécessaire, un générateur de bruit hydraulique) doit être montée à une extrémité du tube de mesure. L'autre
extrémité doit avoir la forme d'une soupape de charge ne comportant aucun élément interne libre, telle qu'une
soupape à pointeau.
La pression moyenne doit être mesurée à l'extrémité amont du tube de mesure.
8.3.2 Cette méthode requiert l'utilisation de trois capteurs de pression, configurés comme représenté à la
Figure 1. L'espace entre les capteurs doit être choisi selon les spécifications normalisées des mesures hydro-
acoustiques à effectuer simultanément. Sinon, la distance entre les capteurs de pression L, L' est celle spécifiée
dans le Tableau 3.
La distance entre chaque extrémité du tube de mesure et le capteur de pression le plus proche doit être au moins
égale à 10d,où d est le diamètre intérieur du tube. Les distances L et L' entre les capteurs, comme représenté à la
Figure 1, doivent être mesurées avec une exactitude de � 0,5 mm.
Aucun autre composant ne doit être raccordé entre les orifices d'entrée et de sortie du tube de mesure.

8.4 Méthode 2: Méthode antirésonance
8.4.1 Cette méthode peut être utilisée pour réaliser un organigramme de la vitesse du son d'un fluide particulier.
En raison des résonances de pression créées dans le système, cette méthode ne convient pas lorsque d'autres
mesures hydro-acoustiques doivent être réalisées.
8.4.2 Un banc d'essai approprié est représenté schématiquement à la Figure 2 a). La soupape de charge ne doit
comporter aucun élément libre. Une soupape à pointeau est un exemple de soupape de charge appropriée. Le
tube de mesure prend la forme d'un branchement latéral à extrémité fermée raccordé au circuit
pompe/tube/soupape de charge comme présenté. Il est important que le fluide dans le tube de mesure ait une
température la plus uniforme possible, et qu'il ne contienne pas de bulles de gaz. Pour réaliser ces objectifs,
l'extrémité du tube de mesure est constituée d'un robinet de purge. Une soupape à pointeau est un exemple de
robinet de purge approprié. Avant d'effectuer les mesures, le robinet de purge est ouvert pendant une durée
suffisante pour évacuer les bulles de gaz dans le tube et pour stabiliser la température. Le tube de mesure doit être
orienté vers le bas avec le robinet de purge situé en dessous du niveau du tube d'écoulement de façon à éviter que
de l’air reste piégé dans le tube de mesure durant l’essai. Il est important que le robinet de purge n'achemine pas
un volume supplémentaire significatif à l'extrémité de la conduite lorsque le robinet est fermé.
Les capteurs de pression, PT et PT , représentés à la Figure 2 a), sont situés à chaque extrémité du tube de
1 2
mesure. Il est essentiel que le capteur PT soit monté le plus près possible de l'extrémité du tube. Il convient
2
également que l'emplacement du capteur PT soit le plus proche possible du point de raccordement du tube de
1
mesure au circuit principal. La Figure 2 b) donne un exemple de satisfaction de ces exigences. Dans cet exemple,
l'extrémité du tube de mesure est un logement prévu à cet effet comportant la soupape à pointeau.

Figure 2 — Dispositif type de l'essai antirésonance
Les composants hydrauliques nécessaires pour obtenir les conditions d'essai appropriées peuvent,
intrinsèquement, générer des niveaux d'impulsion de pression suffisants pour pouvoir effectuer l'analyse du spectre
de fréquences de façon satisfaisante. Dans le cas contraire, un générateur de bruit hydraulique séparé doit être
raccordé au circuit, comme représenté à la Figure 2 a).
Afin de maximiser les niveaux d'impulsion de pression, il convient que la distance entre la pompe (ou le générateur
de bruit lorsqu'il fonctionne) et la soupape de charge ne soit pas supérieure à un dixième de la longueur du tube de
mesure.
8.4.3 Le tube de mesure doit être un tube métallique uniforme, rigide et droit. Son diamètre intérieur doit être
compris entre 50 % et 100 % du diamètre de la conduite à laquelle il est raccordé. Ce tube doit être soutenu de
telle sorte que les vibrations soient réduites.
La distance entre les capteurs de pression, l, doit être définie selon la première fréquence antirésonance
acoustique f àl'aidedel'équationsuivante:

Le coefficient de charge effectif B peut être évalué en utilisant les données du fabricant relatives au fluide adapté
aux conditions de service des essais. Une valeur précise n'est pas requise.
La fréquence f peut être choisie dans la gamme comprise entre 100 Hz et 200 Hz.
0
La distance entre les capteurs de pression doit être mesurée avec une précision de � 0,5 mm.
8.5 Étalonnage des capteurs de pression
L'étalonnage des capteurs de pression et la mise en forme de signaux sont des opérations nécessaires.
L'étalonnage relatif doit être effectué en montant les capteurs de pression sur un bloc commun de telle sorte qu'ils
mesurent la même onde de pression. Ce bloc commun doit être construit de sorte que les capteurs de pression
aient la même position axiale et ne soient pas éloignés du tube de mesure de plus d'un diamètre intérieur.
Mesurer la relation amplitude-phase entre les capteurs de pression pour une gamme de fréquences couvrant la
gamme complète concernée avec un capteur utilisé comme élément de référence. Pour les capteurs piézorésistifs,
le capteur de référence peut être étalonné de manière statique en utilisant, par exemple, une machine d'essais à
contre-poids.
Lorsque l'on utilise des capteurs piézo-électriques et des amplificateurs de charge, un capteur piézorésistif
étalonné peut être pris comme référence pour un étalonnage dynamique.
Lorsque la différence d'amplitude ou de phase entre les capteurs dépasse 1 % ou 0,5° respectivement, les
différences doivent être corrigées dans l'analyse des données d'essais (voir 9.3 et 10.3). Enregistrer les fonctions
