O,C. 204B0 August 16, 1977 SURFACE TRANSPORTATION EXHAUST SYSTEM NOISE SYMI_IUM Sponsored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Conducted by the Environ_ntal Protection Agency and McDonnell Douglas Astronautics Company at Howard Johnson's - O'Hare, Chicago, Illinois on October ii, 12, 13, 1977 The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency/Office of Noise Abatement and Control (EPA/ONAC)has initiated studies pursuant to requirements established under Section 8 of the Noise Control Act of 1972 which may lead to Federal requirements for the labeling of surface transportation vehicles and mufflers with respect to noise. One study is designed to assess the methodologies available to measure and communicate the noise reduction characteristics of surface transportation vehicle exhaust systemIs. The information co_|_unicatedmay be actual sound levels or information relative to sound levels (i.e., veri- fication that a vehicle with a particular aftermarket muffler installed will meet an applicable standard), or other information such as warranty claims, proper maintenance and operator instructions, etc. The information would be used by dealers, repair facilities, enforcement personnel and the general public. The other study is to explore'avenues available to commun}cate to con- sumers the noise characteristics of surface transportation vehicles (e.g. total vehicle noise, interior noise, etc.). This second study, however, is not the subject of this sy_siu_. In support of the exhaust system program the EPA desires information on possible testing procedures which could be used in a Federal muffler labeling requirement. EPA needs to know whether standardized procedures exist or can be developed that can be used to characterize meffler per- formance without having to test exhaust systems installed on the vehicles for which _hey are intended. To gain the necessary information, EPA is sponsoring a three day sy_osiu_ scheduled for October ii, 12, 13, 1977 in Chicago, Illinois. Inputs from industry, research organizations and other interested parties are solicited to provide information to the government on appropriate procedures. iv Papers submitted for presentation should be directed primarily to bench test procedures and their relationship to total vehicle sound level methodologies for use in a Federal regulatory requirement. The methods discussed may include the following: o System testing using a standard sound source, o analytical simulation techniques, and e combination of testing and analytical methods. Information that must be developed on vehicle or vehicle engine sound characteristics (other than total vehicle noise) to make _ffler labeling useful should also be addressed. While the primacy purpose of the sy_sium is to assess "bench test methodologies" and their use in a Federal regulatory requirement, it may be necessary to address other testing methodologies, in the event that a suitable bench test methodology does not appear to be available. In this light a limite4 number of papers will be accepted on stationary (near field) and dynamometer test methods, results and their relationship to moving vehicle noise test methods. six sessions of in-4epth papers are planned to cover all aspects of exhaust system bench testing. Three plenacy sessions will be held emphasizing the application of various exhaust system bench test methods.
