Subject: Cabin Noise Survey Results on G550, Serial Number 5176
Attachments: Detailed Cabin Noise Results
Introduction
A cabin noise survey was conducted on 19 March 2008 on G550 s/n 5176 by GAC's Acoustics &
Vibration group. This aircraft is owned by Cristen Limited EACE and was outfitted at GAC's completion
center in Appleton. WI.
Test Item
The test item is a completed 6550 with a custom interior that includes a forward galley and an enhanced
acoustics package. The aircraft has an aft and a forward lavatory. The passenger cabin has 18 seats,
including club seating with a forward divan for six at Windows 3 and 4. standard club seating for four at
Windows 5 and 6, and private double aft divans at Window 7 and aft. A standard pocket door is
separating the vestibule and passenger cabin. A second pocket door was located between Windows 6
and 7 separating the forward and aft passenger cabins.
An ultraleather material was used for the headliner, and PSU's. A leather material was used for the cabin
seats, and a decorative fabric was used to cover the dado panels and window panels. The divan was
covered is a cloth finish.
Cabin Noise Metrics
SIL's are the speech interference levels measured in decibels. defined as the arithmetic average of the
un-weighted 1000 Hz, 2000 Hz, and 4000 Hz octave band sound pressure levels. The dB(A) levels are
the summation of sound pressure over all frequencies after the W weighting is applied. The reference
level is 20 pPa.
Engine/Aircraft Settings
The aircraft was operated in normal, level flight at 45,000 feet, 0.80 Mach. An doors and gaspers were
closed. During the survey there were no turns, banks, climbs, or descents. The engine speeds, EPR
setting, and vibration at the start of the survey were:
Left Engine Right Engine
EPR 1.58 1.58
N1 % 86.5 86.3
N2 % 88.1 87.9
LP EVM 0.18 0.14
HP EVM 0.01 0.05
Total fuel at the time of the survey was 13700 lbs. The cabin pressurization was at a differential of 10.11
psi during the cabin noise survey. The SAT was -52°C and the pressure from the left and right ECS pats
20 psi each.

Data Acquisition
Cockpit noise levels were measured at a point midway between pilot and co-pilot at ear level. The
passenger cabin on Aircraft 5176 is defined as seated positions from Window 3 through to the aft lavatory
door. Noise levels at window positions and other areas were measured at the seated head height of an
occupant, including the lavatories, except for the vestibule and galley. The passenger cabin door, the aft
lavatory door, the baggage door, and all interior doors and curtains were closed during the survey.
A recording of sound pressure was taken at each location using a B&K 2250 Sound Level Meter. Data
consisted of an eight-second recording of un-weighted sound pressure at each position. The time needed
to complete the cabin noise survey was approximately 20 minutes.
Data Reduction
The recorded data was reduced using a B&K 2250 Sound Level Meter. Eight-second averages were
taken at each measurement position over a one-third-octave band center frequency range from 25 Hz to
10,000 Hz. Both one-third octave and octave band data were generated. The A-weighted noise levels
were calculated from the one-third octave band data. Speech Interference Levels (SIL's) were calculated
from the octave band data.
Results
The cabin noise data shows the passenger cabin averages at 70.4dB (A) and 46.3 dB SIL. The engine
fan tone is above 93.0 dB in the private aft cabin in the Window 7 area. A fan trim balance was
recommended to reduce the engine noise in the private aft cabin. The fan trim balance was performed on
the right engine but there was no opportunity to acquire cabin noise data after the balance.
Aircraft 5176 satisfies all GAC acoustic requirements for cabin noise surveys. Attached are the detailed
summary table and chart of the sound measurement at each location in the aircraft.
