✦ Synopsis


In our work we have analyzed different stratified rockwool samples, with considerable differences regarding density, mean pore diameter, and porosity, by means of a new method for the measurement of the dynamic flow resistance based on the electrical analogy. This method enables us to measure this parameter without the need for placing the sample between two microphones. Our experimental results have been compared to those obtained with a different measurement scheme and, from a theoretical point of view, we have examined the extent to which the capillary pore approximation can be utilized in intermediate flow regimes and Poiseuille flow regimes and in real situations. For this purpose, a static flow resistivity, which was also approximated using an acoustic method and a commonly accepted theoretical approximation, was calculated based on a microscopic study of the samples and the fibre's diameter. Regarding the conclusions obtained, the results show that the new experimental procedure for determining the dynamic flow resistance is of interest in the intermediate and Poiseuille flow regimes in which, within the limitation of our experimental set-up, good results were obtained. The acoustic procedure for measuring a static flow resistivity delivered good results only for a regime close to Poiseuille, which was obtained only with higher density samples.
