This, the 35th in aseries of international congresseson noise control engineeering washeld held in Honolulu,Hawaii, USAon <strong>December</strong> 3-6, 2006. The themeof the congress was “Engineering aQuieter World.”The technical topics covered atINTER-NOISE 06 included:• Aircraft and Airport <strong>Noise</strong> Control• Community <strong>Noise</strong>• Fan noise and aeroacoustics• Highway, automobile and heavyvehicle noise• Machinery noise• <strong>Noise</strong> policy• Product noise emissions• Sound quality.The NOISE-CON 05ProceedingsThis searchable CD-ROM contains198 papers presented at the jointNOISE-CON 05/ASA <strong>15</strong>0th meetingas well as 749 papers from theNOISE-CON conferences held in1996, 1997, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2003,and 2004 as well as the papersfrom the Sound Quality Symposiaheld in 1998 and 2002. All papersare PDF files.Several papers are taken fromsessions organized by the <strong>Noise</strong>,Architectural Acoustics andStructural Acoustics Technicalcommittees for this <strong>15</strong>0th ASAmeeting. The three plenary lecturesrelated to noise and its impact onthe environment are included. Alsoincluded are papers in one or moreorganized sessions in the areas ofaircraft noise, tire/pavement noise,and hospital noise.166 www.inceusa.org • www.noisenewsinternational.net • www.i-ince.org <strong>2007</strong> <strong>December</strong>
Product <strong>News</strong>Brüel and KjærThe Brüel and Kjær Type 2270 Hand-held AnalyzerThe latest innovation and addition to the B&Kgrowing family of hand-held analyzers is the Type2270. Some of the features of the instrument are:• Integrated digital camera (to aid documentation ofthe measurement environment)• Two-channel measurement capability (twomeasurement locations in one hand-held analyzer)• Integrated LAN and USB interfaces (offeringfast data transfer to PC and remote control andmonitoring of Type 2270• Environmental protection IP44Type 2270 also boasts a wide range of applicationsoftware modules that can be licensed separately.Currently available measurement software includes:• Sound Level Meter application• Real-time frequency analysis• Logging (noise level profiling)• Sound and vibration recording• Building acoustics applications• Tonal assessment optionThe Type 2270 is said to meet head on the demandsof today’s wide-ranging sound and vibrationmeasurement tasks with the accuracy and reliabilityassociated with Brüel & Kjær instrumentation.For more information, go to www.bksv.com.PCBPCB Introduces New Free Field ICP ® Array MicrophonePCB Piezotronics (PCB ® ) has debuted Model130D22, a combined ICP ® free field responsepre-polarized array microphone and preamplifier.The microphone is designed for measuring soundpressure levels and frequencies in the audiblerange, and can be used simultaneously with ICP ®accelerometers to simplify test setups.Model 130D22 also incorporates a SMB connector,which is easy to assemble, provides seamlesstransition for many data acquisition systems andsoftware set-ups, and saves time when connectingmultiple units, such as in a large channel arraysetup. When used with data acquisition systemsthat have 2-20 mA constant current supply, thesystem does not require additional power supplies.The unit has high sensitivity (45 mV/Pa), usesstandard low-cost coaxial cables, and also hasoptional TEDS capability, which allows for ease ofuse, and traceability.This acoustic test product is said to be ideal forarray set-ups (2 D Pressure Mapping, Holography);trending and frequency analysis; predictivemaintenance on machinery fans, bearings andother industrial applications; white goods testing;NVH studies for automotive and aerospace; largechannel count tests; biomedical research; orgeneral acoustic testing, where a Type 1 compliantmicrophone is not justifiable and the customerrequires a lower cost alternative.

The unit occupiesa 0.11 x 0.16 x 0.27 inch (2.8 x 4.1 x 6.9 mm) envelope,and weighs a mere 0.007 ounces (0.20 grams), forminimal mass loading of a test article. The unitconnects to laboratory-style charge amplifiers or inlinecharge converters, which condition an outputsignal for recording or analysis.Model 357A19 features an operating temperaturerange of -100 to +350 °F (-73 to +177 °C) and is suitedfor thermal cycling and vibration stress screeningof circuit boards, disk drive mechanisms, mobilephones, PDA’s, and other electronic devices. Otherapplications include NVH studies on automotiveparts and modal analysis of small structures andsatellite components.
