Wicked Man's Rest is the debut and sole studio album of the British band Passenger (stylized as /Passenger.) fronted by Mike Rosenberg.Use of Telephone in Noisy Areas Satisfactory, difficult and impossible noise levels for telephone use in noisy areas.Sound Intensity, Power and Pressure Levels Introduction to decibel, sound power, intensity and pressure.Sound Intensity Acoustic power of sound per unit area.Sound - Doppler Effect The doppler effect is the change in sound frequency due to the relative motion between a source and a listener.Sound - Attenuation and the Directivity Coefficient The attenuation in a room depends on the location of the sound source and the receiver - and the room constant.the Distance from Source The disruption of the sound pressure wave and the reduction of noise is called attenuation - Sound Pressure Level vs. SIL - the Speech Interference Levels Background noise frequencies that interferes with speech.Signals - Adding Decibels The logarithmic decibel scale is convenient when adding signal values like sound power, pressure and others from two or more sources.Phonetic Alphabet The phonetic alphabet used in international aircraft communications.Outdoor Ambient Sound Pressure Levels Outdoor ambient sound pressure levels (dBA) in rural and urban business and industrial environments with or without limited traffic.Noise generated in Blade Dampers Sound power noise generated by blade dampers in ventilation systems.Noise generated by Fans - Blade Pass Frequency (BPF) The Blade Pass Frequency noise generated by a fan can be very intense and varies with the number of blades and the rotation velocity.Noise - Acceptable dB A Level Acceptable noise - dB A - level at typical common locations.Maximum Sound Pressure Levels in Rooms Maximum recommended sound pressure levels in rooms like kindergartens, auditoriums, libraries, cinemas and more.Fans - generated Noise Power The sound generated by a fan depends on the motor power, the volume capacity, the static pressure increase and the discharged volume.Noise and Attenuation Noise is usually defined as unwanted sound - noise, noise generation, silencers and attenuation in HVAC systems.Acoustics Room acoustics and acoustic properties, decibel A, B and C, Noise Rating (NR) curves, sound transmission, sound pressure, sound intensity and sound attenuation. Sound power in watts and sound power level in decibels from some common sources are indicated below:īackground noise in broadcast/recording studio The sound intensity level can be calculated with (3) as The sound intensity - sound power transfer per unit surrounding surface - in a distance 1 m from the 100 dB machine in the example above can be calculated by rearranging (1b) to L p = sound pressure level (dB) Example - Sound Intensity and Pressure Level - Distance from Source The value of sound intensity level and sound pressure level is almost the same I ref = 10 -12 - reference sound intensity (W/m 2) L I = sound intensity level ( decibel, dB) Sound intensity can also be expressed relative to a reference intensity - the threshold of hearing - 10 -12 W/m 2 - in a logarithmic " decibel" scale as The sound power can be calculated by rearranging (1) to The sound power level from a machine is rated to 100 dB. The sound power level can be calculated as The sound power from a from a tool is 0.0015 W. The human ear is able hear sound powers that spans from 10 -12 W to 10 - 100 W, a range of 10/10 -12 = 10 13. N ref = 10 -12 - reference sound power (W) It can be practical to express the sound power relative a reference power - 10 -12 W - in a logarithmic " decibel" scale as R = radius in sphere (m) Sound Power Level (dB) S = surface area surrounding source (m 2)įor a source propagating sound in all directions - through a virtual spherical surface - the acoustic power can be modified to I = sound intensity - sound power through surface (W/m 2) N = acoustic power radiated from source (W) The sound power radiated from a source can therefore be calculated by integrating the acoustic intensity over a surrounding surface. The sound intensity is the sound power transmission through a surface (W/m 2) - a vector quantity with direction through a surface. When sound propagates through a medium acoustic sound power is transferred. Sound power is the energy rate, or energy of sound per unit of time ( J/s or W in SI-units) - emitted by a source.
