The document discusses different aspects of sound and noise levels:
1) It provides the formula for speed of sound and defines units of measurement for sound pressure level (SPL) in bels and decibels.
2) It lists examples of common sound pressure levels from speaking to rocket launches to give a sense of the SPL scale.
3) It describes how perceived noise and effective perceived noise (EPNdB) are measured, accounting for annoying frequency spikes.
4) Aviation noise regulations set EPNdB limits for aircraft depending on size, with larger planes allowed to be louder, generally between 111-115 EPNdB for commercial jets.

Sound Pressure Level SPL measured in “decibels” (dB)
SPL = 20 log10 [P/Pref]
Pref = 2 x 10-5 Pa (hearing threshold)
Sound Pressure Level • Reference pressure SPL = 0 dB • Speaking at 1m SPL = 60 dB • Street noise SPL = 80 dB • Turbojet at 0.3 n.miles SPL = 120 dB • Saturn V rocket 2 n.miles SPL = 130 dB Effective Perceived Noise Perceived noise: weighting factor added to certain frequency range
Effective perceived noise: noise level takes
into account spikes in pressure that cause annoyance

aircraft: bigger aircraft are permitted to be noisier Large aircraft at civil airports: Take-off noise 114 EPNdB at 1 n.mile Approach noise 115 EPNdB at 1 n.mile } Σ EpNdB Sideline noise 111 EPNdB at 0.35 n.mile General aviation VLA (less than 750 kg) < 55 dB (150 m flyover) Light aircraft GTOM < 600 kg < 68 EPNdB 300 flyover Light aircraft GTOM < 1500 kg < 80 EPNdB 300 m flyover
Helicopters < 75 dB at 300 m, < 81 dB at 150 m
(concessions for hospital helicopters) Origin of Noise Airframe noise, turbulent separations and panel flutter
Engine Noise, vibration
Jet noise, shear flows: acoustic power increases as Vj8
Propellers: noisy especially when tip speed becomes
