Equipment Name

Engine acoustics & vibration facility

The micro Drivven Combustion noise Analysis( μDCAT) Software:

Engine noise, vibration testing and analysis.
The micro Drivven Combustion Analysis Tool (μDCAT) is used to perform Engine combustion and noise analysis.
It is the combustion analysis tool from National Instruments and it requires NI Compact DAQ 9178 Chassis and NI 9215 module.

B& K 4374 - Miniature piezoelectric charge accelerometer:

Type 4374 is a piezoelectric, Planar Shear accelerometer.
It is able to withstand high temperature on the engine surface and is able to measure engine vibration.
High-level, high-frequency measurements, measurements in confined spaces and on delicate structures are possible
Vibration testing and analysis can be performed.

B & K 4192 - Pressure-field microphone, 3.15 Hz to 20 kHz, 200V polarization:

Type 4192 is designed for high-precision noise measurements. Being externally polarized, Type 4192 should be used with a classical pre-amplifier.
Pressure-field microphones are optimised to have a flat frequency response in a pressure field. The microphones are used for making measurements in small, closed couplers or close to hard, reflective surfaces
Type 4192 is suited for situations, where a robust and stable pressure-field microphone is required and it is well suited for the engine noise applications.
