Absorption of Sound by Air: A Personal Calculator Program

Authors: Bernfeld, Benjamin

Journal of the Audio Engineering Society · Volume 28 · Issue 7/8 · pp. 521–524 · August 1980

Abstract

The proposed personal calculator program is based on ANSI S1.26-1978. "Standard Method for the Calculation of the Absorption of Sound by the Atmosphere." Apart from the absorption for pure tones, the program computes the absorption for octave or one-third-octave bands of white noise, as required in the calculation of reverberation processes and noise propagation.
