Abstract This book is intended for engineers and technicians in the textile industry and specialists concerned with the problems of measuring, setting standards for and controlling machinery noise. Contents: evaluation and standardisation of shop noise conditions and determination of textile machinery noise characteristics (measuring instruments, accuracy, computation of noise levels, etc.); textile machinery noise and its sources (sources of acoustic energy, a computerised noise analysis system, noise radiation source identification); noise generation processes and the relation between noise characteristics and design and dynamic parameters (structure-borne noise and a block acoustic model of a machine, acoustical models of noise sources, method for predicting the acoustical characteristics of machinery, etc); methods for controlling machinery noise at source (noise suppression, acoustic design); noise control experience in textile undertakings and economic efficiency of control measures (organisational, technological, structure and architectural methods of noise control, personal protective equipment). In appendix: acoustic energy sources in specific machines.
