9. Assumptions in the Design
The source would be located on the existing TurnTable.
The working space would take the form of a cylinder with the height of H = 2000 mm and
the diameter of D = 2000 mm.
In the working space, the microphone would be suspended with small diameter ropes to
minimize the interference of the free field.
The accuracy of the positioning for a linear displacement of the microphone will be less
than 1 mm
The axis of the measuring microphone can be reoriented relative to the sound source.
All the simulations provide the results in the case of maximum loads and stresses possible.
