Appendix.
Some Investigations of the Acoustical Qualities of the Hearing Aid Test Box.
In the
following section some
measurements
carried
out on hearing
aids
are
described.
The
measurements
are carried
out partly in the
Test
Box and
partly in
an anechoic chamber with
the inner dimensions o.9
X
1.2
X
o.75
meters.
The first experiment
deals with the pressure increase developed on the
surface
of
a
hearing
aid exposed
to
a
free
sound
field. The measurements
were made on
a
dummy
consisting
of
a
metal box
with
a 7.5
X
6.0
em
(3 X
2o/s inches) side
facing
the
sound source
and
a
built-in Condenser
