3. Noise Equations – Point Source
Inverse Square Law
• Spherical Wave
I =
𝑊
4𝜋𝑟2 { I α

𝑟2 }
• Hemisphere
I =
𝑊
2𝜋𝑟2 { I α
1
𝑟2 }
(Note : Sound Intensity Level IL
reduces by 6.02 dB by doubling
the distance, Example 1 is used to
derived this decibel figure )

4. Noise Equations – Line Source
Inverse Distance Law
• Distance
I =

𝜋𝑟
{ I α

}
(Note : Sound Intensity Level IL
reduces by 3.01 dB by doubling the
distance, similarly, Example 1 is used
to derived this decibel figure)

5. Example 1
Calculate noise at source if SPL at 1 metre from source is 70dB
• Intensity at 1m :-
IL = 10 log(
𝐼1
𝐼 𝑜
) = 70
𝐼1
10−12 = 107
𝐼1= 10−5 𝑊/ 𝑚2
I =
𝑊
4𝜋𝑟2 ; spherical wave
13. Example 3
Calculate noise level for given multiple Sound Intensity Level IL [dB] at various
frequency
• 𝐼𝐿1= 60 dB @ 8000Hz
• 𝐼𝐿2= 60 dB @ 4000Hz
• 𝐼𝐿3= 61 dB @ 2000Hz
{work/move from highest frequency to lower}
𝐼1
𝐼0
= 106.0
,
𝐼2
𝐼 𝑜
= 106.0
𝐼1 + 𝐼2 = (106.0 + 106.0) 𝐼0
16. The Total Energy of Noise Source for unsteady
noise over a time period
• Equivalent Steady Sound Level 𝐿 𝑒𝑞
𝐿 𝑒𝑞 = 10 log (
1
𝑇 0
𝑇
10
𝐼𝐿
10 dt )
Cause IL = 10 log (
𝐼
𝐼0
) , then (
𝐼
𝐼0
) = 10
𝐼𝐿
10
in linear scale
in decibel scale
17. • Equivalent Noise Exposure Level for 8 hours
𝐿 𝑒𝑞,8 = 10 log ( 𝑖=1
𝑛 Δ𝑡
8
10
𝑆𝑃𝐿
10 )
Where 𝐿 𝑒𝑞,8 is equivalent sound exposure level in 8 hours
∑ is the sum of the exposure for i=1 to i=n
i is discrete value of each exposure, for a specific duration
Δt is the exposure for that particular duration
SPL is sound pressure level in decibel sound meter reading
dB(A), weighted “A” scale
18. Example 4
1 Discrete exposure period, 10 minutes of Leq 120 dB(A), what is the Equivalent
Steady Sound Level for 40 hours duration Leq,40
SPL = 120 dB(A) for 10 minutes
𝐿 𝑒𝑞,40 = 10 log ( 𝑖=1
𝑛 Δ𝑡
40
10
𝑆𝑃𝐿
10 )
= 10 log (
10/60
40
∗ 10
120
10 )
= 96.1 dB(A)
21. Summary / Conclusion
• Figures used in Example 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 are use for illustration only,
for the equations as derived, to the Equivalent Steady Sound Level
Leq.
• Noise Prediction/Prevention in this situation, is to reduce Sound
Pressure Level SPL dB(A) at noise source.
• With this, noise calculation shall be with reference to Factories and
Machinery Act 1967 (ACT 139) (Noise Exposure) Regulations 1989.
