16. Abstract
Calculation procedures to describe airplane noise during takeoff and approach havebeen programmed for batch operation on a large digital computer. Three routines areincluded. The first normalizes far-field noise spectra to reference conditions andthen determines spectra at various distances from the airplane, for airport elevationsbetween sea level and 6000 feet and ambient temperatures between 30OF and 1000F.Overall sound pressure levels, A-weighted noise levels, perceived noise levels, andeffective perceived noise levels are calculated. The second routine uses aerody-namic and engine thrust data to produce takeoff and approach flight path description.The basic takeoff is at constant equivalent airspeed, with thrust reduction oracceleration option after gear-up. The approach is along any constant glide slopebetween 3 and 6 degrees at constant airspeed, with a two-segment option. The lastroutine combines noise propagation and flight path information to produce constantnoise contour "footprints ." The program has been exercised on Loclheed L-lOll-1Tristar/Rolls-Royce RB.211-22 data, providing results in EPNdB and dBA.
"o Volume I contains detailed discussion of the calculation procedures."o Volume II includes L-lOll-1 noise propagation and airplane performance and samples
of contours."o Volume flr presents the logic behind the calculations and outlines the computational
procedures.o Volumes IV and V describe the computer program and give instructions for its
operation.

SECTION 1
INTRODUCTION
The detailed discussion of the procedures and calculations for determining the
noise patterns resulting from takeoff and approach operations of a commercial
transport is presented in Volume I of this five-volume report. Performance
anO. noise data for the Lockheed L-101-I Tristar are contained in Volume II.
This Volume III presents a description of the logic and the procedures for the
noise definition calculations which have been developed into a digital-computer
program. Sufficient detail is included to permit judgments to be made regard-
ing the applicability of the program to any particular noise study.
The aircraft noise definition analysis described he:e starts with the airplane/
engine's far field noise signature in the form of one-third octave band sound
pressure level spectra at a reference distance from the airplav,, at a refer-
ence airport elevation, ambient temperature, and relative humidity. Then thenoise versus distance-from-airplane characteristics may be calculated and used
in conjunction with the airplane's distance irom any desired point on the
ground to determine the noise level at that point. The airplane's distance is
provided by the performance subroutine which generat',s either the takeoff or
approach flight path. Ground noise patterns are generally produced as noise
directly under the airplane as a function of distance from an airport refer-
ence point or as constant noise contours (footprints) at preselected noise
levels. The airp]ane performance calculations are based on normal takeoff
and approach operating procedures. However, sufficient flexibility has been
included to permit noise evaluations of variations in operational procedures.

SECTION 2
PROGRAM CAPABILITIES
A purpose of the Comnercial Aircraft Noise Definition study reported in theseveral volumes of this report is to develop and illustrate a computational
procedure which will produce the noise patterns on the ground produced during
takeoff and landing operations of an airplane in the vicinity of an airport.These noise patterns may then be used for comparing airplanes, for evaluatingoperational procedures, and for integrating into the total noise impact ofthe air traffic at an airport. The computational procedure consists of twoparts, or subroutines, each providing independent output data which may be
used by themselves or used as input to the noise pattern calculations. These
subroutines produce noise propagation data and airplane performance, takeoff
or approach, data for use in the footprint routine which produces the noise
patterns.
The noise propagation calculation subroutine provides a means for determining
far-field noise source characteristics, or signatures, from measured or pre-dicted acoustic spectra and for calculating noise versus distance data fromthese signatures. The acoustic signature generation may be accomplished frommeasured or calculated noise spectra and durations at any far-field distancefrom the airplane and at any atmospheric conditions within the scope of SAEARP 866 (Reference 1 ) and at any engine thrust condition. These spectra and
durations are normalized to a 200 foot flyover distance from the airplane ona FAR Part 36 reference day (sea level, T70 F, 70% relative humidity). Thisportion of the calculation routine thus provides a procedure for normalizirg
flyover noise measurement data to reference conditions. If noise at severalthrust settings is available, then the dependence of noise on thrust atreference conditions is available. The noise is in the form of one-third-octave or octave band spectra, overall level, A-weighted noise level, perceived
noise level, and effective perceived noise level. If other noise weighting
are desired, then they may be introduced into the calculation program. The
remainder of the calculation procedure determines, starting with the 200 foot
spectral signatures, noise versus distance at ary atmospheric conditions
2-1
V,
specified and for all the noise level forms above. A complete description
then exists for the noise characteristics of the airplane/engine and of the
noise propagation characteristics at any atmospheric conditions at airport
elevations from sea level to 6000 feet.
The airplane performance subroutine is comprised of two separate routines.
The takeoff section provides the necessary data in the form of geometric
altitude, distance from brake release, speed, engine data Nl/9rV for input
to the footprint program. The approach section provides the same data,
except that distance to threshold is used. When used as part of a combined
program, these performance sections provide the data to the footprint pro-
gram for the bpecific cases required (see Section 4.2, Figure 4.2-3). These
data can also be output in tabular form alone (see Section 4.2, page 4-38)
without any output from the footprint program.
Three specific types of' takeoff flight profiles can be produced. One is a
takeoff and climbout at constant velocity after gear up; another is a takeoff
and climbout with an accelerated climb after gear up; the third is a takeoff
and climbout with the option of a thrust cutback after gear up. Approach
may be along any glide slope between 3 and 6 degrees or may be a two-seg-
ment maneuver with the two glide slopes intersecting at any predetermined
altitude.
The noise footprint routine combines airplane flight path data with noise
propagation data in the calculation of noise on the ground during takeoff
and approach maneuvers. The flight path and propagation data may be the
output of the program subroutines discussed above or may be available from
other sources. The footprint program calculates noise directly under the
flight path and along a sideline one-quarter nautical mile from the flight
path projection and calculates the coordinates of points on the ground where
any specified maximum noise levels are attained. Constant noise contours for
the specified maximum levels may then be drawn through the calculated points
either by hand or by means of a machine plotting routine. The specified
noise levels may be any physical, weighted, or computed levels for which
propagation information is available, either from the noise propagation
routine or from some other source.
2-2
An integration for area within a contour is performed when the maximum noise
point coordinates are being calculated and the total area enclosed by a given
contour accompanies the contour closing point. lontour-enclosed areas provide
an indication of comunity exposure to various levels of noise during operation
of an airplane. They may also be used for evaluating the impact of airplane
variations, such as weights and flap angles, and for studying the effects of
procedural variations, such as takeoff thrust cutback and two segment approach.
The footprint data, as well as the noise propagation data, may also be used
for inclusion in calculations of cumulative noise exposures resulting from the
total siz traffic at an airport during any period a,:' time.
The aircraft noise definition program discussed above is believed to be a
comprehensive and powerful tool for noise studies of airplane operations in
the vicinity of airports.
2-3
SECTION 3
MATHMMTICAL MODEL
The calculation of the noise patterns for an airplane flyover is done by a
series of routines. The noise propagation routine starts with a far-field
input spectrum or a group of spectra, either measured or predicted, and adds
appropriate attenuation to get noise versus distance from the noise source.
The noise ma; be shown as A-noise level, perceived noise level, effective
perceived noise level (References 2 and. 3 ), or some other weighted level or
subjective noise measure. A noise versus distance propagation characteristic
is determined for various engine thrust settings in the range of interest.
The performance routine is used to calculate the takeoff or the approach
flight paths, including the airplane velocity and the engine power setting.
Included in the takeoff portion of the routine are options for thrust cut-
back or for airplane acceleration during climb after gear up. The approach
portion of the routine incorporates the capability for use of any glide
slope between 30 and 60 and for the use of a two segment approach. The
equations and methods deve3 'ped by the Lockheed-California Company Commercial
Engineering Flight Test organization (Reference 14) were used and adapted for
the performance routine.
Finally, the footprint routine utilizes distances from the airplane flight
path, from the performance subroutine, and noise versus distance, from the
noise propagation subroutine, to calculate the coordinates of constant noise
positions on the ground and generates the plots of the constant noise
contours. In Section 3.5 a general flow diagram cr the complete computation
program is presented as an aid toward understanding the interplay among the
several routines.
3-1
3.1 NOISE PROPAGATION
The noise propagation subroutine calculates noise levels versus distance, for
a given set of conditions of airport elevation, ambient temperature, and
relative humidity using spherical spreading (inverse square) attenuation and
extra air attenuation (EAA) due to atmospheric absorption as defined in the
proposed revision to SAE ARP 866 (Reference 5 ). The calculation is done both
without and with extra ground attenuation, using a mathematical model of SAE
AIR 923 (Reference 6 ), to provide propagation characteristics for the two
extreme cases of essentially vertical noise paths from the airplane and of a
horizontal path close to the ground. A homogeneous atmosphere is assumed;
i.e. temperature and relative humidity are constant over the entire noise
path. For the over-the-ground propagation calculation, shielding of the noise
from far-side engines by turbulent exhaust from near-side engines is assumed,
and only half the number of engines is considered as contributing to the noise.
The levels calculated by the subroutine are one-third octave-band sound
pressure levels (SPL), overall sound pressure level (CkSPL), and octave-band
sound pressure levels (OBSPL), in units of dB re 0.0002 microbar; A-weighted
noise level (LA), in dBA; perceived noise level (PZL) and tone-corrected
perceived noise level (PNLT) in PNdB; and effective perceived noise level
(EPUL) in EPNdB. Noise signatures for the airplane/engine noise source are
first required, at any distance from the source and at any meteorological
conditions included in ARP 866, in the form of one-third octave-band sound
pressure levels. These may be measured or calculated spectra. These signa-
ture spectra are normalized to a 200 foot from noise source sideline distance
for a FAR Part 36 reference day (sea level, 770 F, 70% relative humidity) and
then averaged. The averaged, normalized spectrum may then be modified to
any other set of conditions and to various specified distances, calculating
the noise levels listed above. Normally distances of 200, 370, 800, 1600,
3200, 6o00, and 12,800 feet are specified, but other diLtances may be used.
Distances of less than 200 feet should be avoided, partir:ularly with large
engines, since these may be in the near field where the far-field propagation
0-2
assumption of the program will not be valid. If noise signature data are
available for various engine thrust settings, then a noise versus distance
calculation will be carried out for each specified thrust condition.
3.1.1 Propagation Input Parameters
For each set of conditions for which data are available for normalization
to 200 foot noise signatures, the following inputs are needed: measured or
predicted one-third octave-band spectra, temperature in degrees Fahrenheit,
relative humidity, atmospheric pressure in inches of mercury, number of
engines, distance to source (flyover or radial), angle of noise radiation,
aircraft velocity in KEAS, and duration correction. For each set of output
conditions for the noise propagation calculation it is necessary to specify
a table of distances for which attenuations are to be calculated, number -f
engines, lower and upper frequency band for which tone corrections are to be
allowed, pressure altitude at the airport elevation, temperature deviation
from ISA standard in degrees Centigrade, and relative humidity. As many
input spectra as available may be entered and averaged, and as many sets of
output conditions as desired may be run for each case.
3.1.2 Propagation Calculation
The subroutine takes each input spectrum and eaca spectrum developed in the
course of the calculations and calculates OASPL, LA, PNL, PULT, OBSPL, and
EPNL. The overall sound pressure level is calculated by summing the one-
third octave-band levels logarithmically.
Accordingly,
OASPL = 10 LOG 2410 E. anti" n (TLi/lO) (3.1-1)il
The A-noise level is calculated in a similar manner to OASPL after the A-weighting values from IEC 179-1965 (Reference 2) are added to each one-
third octave-band level.
=LA 10 LOG 24 /+El A 10 E antilog N .L i) (3.1-2)
3-3
Perceived noise level and tone-corrected perceived noise level are calculated
by the method outlined in PAR Part 36, Appexdix B (Reference 3). The octave
band sound pressure levels are calculated logarithmically, summing the one-
third octave-band levels in groups of three.
3k0BsPLk = 10 olo z atilog (Li/lO) dB (3.1-3)
i = 3k-2
for k = i, 2, .. 8,
The subroutine will, for each case, take any number of one-third octave band
spectra at the given conditions and normalize them to 200 feet, FAR Part 36
reference day, for t h e specified number of engines and then take an average
of the normalized spectra, duration corrections, and radiation angles. If the
input distance is a radial distance to the aircraft, it is converted to fly-
over distance by multiplying by sin 0. To normalize the spectra:
L i = Li + 20 LOG 10 (Do/20) + (Do - 200) / (1000 sin 9) Mi
+ (200/(1000 sin e)) ( c -toi)+ LpcO + LOG N dB (3.1-4)
where: D is the input flyover distance ft.0

Oroi is the absorption coefficient for the FAR day dB/100ft.

averaged arithmetically. If the input spectra are for a 200 foot FAR day,
then thfý spectra are already normalized and therefore are used as entered.
Once the average normalized spectra are known, they are adjusted to the output

3.2 TAKEOFF PERFORMANCE
This section describes the subroutine which calculates the takeoff flight
path from brake release (BR) to about 9500 feet above sea level (ASL) for
three different prodeduzes. All flight paths reflect all engine operation
and FAA approved aerodynamic data, thrust characteristics, and speed relation-
ships. The all engine distance to 35 feet iiz actual and does not include the
15 percent factor associated with FAR field lengths.
The primary flight path is a 3 engine takeoff and climbout at constant equi-
valent airspeed after gear up. Another path is a 3 engine takeoff and climb-
out to gear up with the option of a thrust reduction at any point after gear
up. During accelerated flight after gear up, the third option, normal cleanup
procedures (flap retraction) are followed. The flight path is broken into a
number of convenient increments, called segments.
The 1962 Standard Atmosphere (Reference 7) is used throughout for all calcu-
lations.
The program uses equations and methods developed by Flight Test (Reference 4)
that describe a takeoff and climbout from brake release to a point where the
aircraft is at about 9500 feet above sea level (Figure 3.2-1). Using FAA
approved thrust, drag, and speed relationships, the aircraft is accelerated
from BR to rotation (ROT), ROT to liftoff (LOF), and LOF to a point where the
aircraft is at 35 feet (AGL). Then the aircraft is accelerated from the velo-
city at the 35 foot point (V2 (3 engine)) to a speed equivalent to the engine
out speed (V2 (2 engine)) plus 10 knots at gear up. After gear up this speed
is maintained to about 9500 feet (ASL) with the flap setting used for takeoff.
At gear up, any flight acceleration between that corresponding to maximum
climb gradient to the maximum acceleration corresponding to level flight may
be selected (Figure 3.2-2). Use of the accelerated flight path requires an
explanation of the speed schedule after gear up. The sketch shown on the next
page shows the speed-altitude relationship required to meet FAR Part 25 (Ref-
erence 8) which limits airspeed below 10,000 feet to 250 knots. Also, if
climb speed is allowed to increase, normal cleanup procedure (flap retraction)
is followed. Successive incremental retraction of the flaps will take place
at the airplane speeds specified in the FAA Approved Flight Manual (Reference 9).
The stepwise retraction is instantaneous, although the acceleration will be

continuous during the cleanup.
After gear,up any cutback thrust level may be chosen between full thrust and
that corresponding to the thrust required for level flight with a wing engine
inoperative (Figure 3.2-3). After gear up, the aircraft is climbed at constant
equivalent airspeed, corresponding to V2 + 10 KEAS, to the predetermined cut-
back altitude. At this altitude, the throttles are set to an EPR (Engine
Pressure Ratio) corresponding to a percent of maximum takeoff thrust and a
new climb gradient is established. The climb is continued at constant speed
to about 9500 feet (ASL).
At the end of each segment, an interpolation is made for NlNusing appro-
priately calculated values of EPR, Mach number, and pressure attitude. These
parameters, plus downrange distance, are passed to the footprint routine for
use in calculating noise along the flight path. A specific airport altitude
and ambient temperature is assumed.
3.2.1 Brake Release to Rotation
This section describes the equations and data used in calculating the ground
roll performance from brake release to rotation (Figure 3.2-1). The rotation
speed (VR) is obtained from flight test data in the form of VR/VS (Figure
3.2-6) as a function of thrust to weight at liftoff (T/W) lf. The distance
equation from BR to ROT:
Sa =0o41427 (V 2 V 2 (3.2-1)
rms
3-8
is derived from the elementary equation of motion, assuming constant accelera-
tion,
2 aS=Vfinal" original (3.2-2)
All velocities used in distance equations are converted from equivalent air-
speed to true airspeed by the following relationship:
VT = V (3.2-3)
3.3.2 Rotation to Liftoff
The performance from rotation to liftoff is described in th'c same manner as
for the previous segment. The liftoff speed is obtained from Figure 3.2-6.
An acceleration from VR to V10f is made. The incremental distance covered is
o.4427 [(Vrif - V - (Vy v)2(T/W (3.2-4)

3.2.3 Liftoff to 35 Feet
This segment begins at liftoff and covers the distance travelled during tran-
sition from ground run to a point where the aircraft has climbed to a height
of 35 feet (AGL). The time (T clmb) for this trensition has been described by
Flight Test as a function of the gradient (Ylof) at liftoff (Figure 3.2-4).
Once time has been determined, the climb distance equation
S= [~~a2~of1 -V 1.87 T b (3.2-5)
can be solved. This equation is derived from the following elementary equation:
AS = V AT (3.2-6)
The incremental altitude is -lt at 35 feet.
3.2.4 35 Feet to Gear Up
This segment begins at 35 feet and includes the aircraft performance to the
gear up point. The height at gear up (Figure 3.2-5) has been described by
3-9
Flight Test as a function of the gradient bt liftoff. This height does not
account for the increase in airspeed when accelerating from V2 (3) to V2 (2)
+ 10 KEAS. The program has an iterative routine that will reduce this height
to account for the increase in true airspeed. The total time for gear up is
based on 17.5 sec. (Reference 4) from liftoff to gear up. The segment time
from 35 feet to gear up then becomes

3.2.5 Three Flight Options after Gear Up
3.2.5.1 Constant V2 + 10 KEAS Climb After Gear Up
A constant EAS climb is considered the normal option for climb after gear up.
Climb is established at a constant equivalent airspeed (V2 + 10 KEAS) and
continued to about 9500 feet (ASL) with the flap setting selected for takeoff.
To establish the method for calculating incremental distanc-e and height after
gear up, time increment is fixed at 5 seconds and a graphical type integra-
tion is established. The incremental heights over 5 second intervals are
summed until the pressure altitude exceeds 9500 feet (ASL). Basic equations
used for each 5 second integration interval are as follows:
GRAD T -D (3.2-9)
R/C 1. 6 8 78 VT (GRAD 6878 a )(3.2-10)C= 32.2(1+ .567 M2)
A = 5 ROC (3.2-11)
AScib = 1.6878 TCmb VT (3.2-12)
3.2.5.2 Accelerated Climb After Gear Up
The accelerated climb path option starts at gear up, continues until either a
9500 foot pressure altitude is reached or speed reaches 250 KEAS. In the
latter instance, the airplane is climbed at 250 KEAS until about 9500 pressure
3-10
altitude. Thus, a climb of about 9500 feet from a sea level airport or a
climb of about 3500 feet from a 6000 foot airport is realized.
The basic logic for the acceleration option assumes that the total thrust
after gear up ý-an be divided between climb and acceleration. This is accom-
plished in the program by inputting a desired acceleration (KT/SEC) and then
computing the resultant gradient and rate of climb. If a=O is input, the
program will automatically select a emstbant KEAS climb. Any acceleration
between 0 and - may be selected, but the program will limit the actual accel-
eration used for calculation. to the maximum level-flight-acceleration capa-
bility of the airplane. The sketch below shows the limits of this option.

between climb and acceleration.
3.2.5.3 Thrust Cutback After Gear Up

EPR setting. Climb is continued after thrust cutback at a reduced gradient
and constant equivalent speed.

3.3 APPROACH PERFORMANCEThis section describes the method and equations that are used to calculate
the basic engine thrust requirements that are one of the inputs required for
the approach noise program. The "final approach" configuration to be used
for this analysis consists of two flap deflections., 33 and 42 degrees, gear
down and Direct Lift Control on or off. The airplane will proceed down a
constant glide path angle at a constant calibrated airspeed. In the case of
two segment approach procedures, instantane us glide slope change is assumed
with no manuevering load factors accounted for in the transition. The air-
plane aerodynamic data are based on FAA approved results as published in the
FAA Type Certification report for the L1OII-1 airplane (Reference 10).
The basic performance equations used to generate engine thrust for constantglide slope approach are as follows:
V .~ R/D-0 IE- 0e GROUND
SR/D V x FN-D x 1-sin 0= -grad = = W .E.FACTOR
x 1W K.E. FACTOR (3.3-1)
(NO WIND)
where:
0 = approach path angle.grad = gradient.
R/D = Rate of Descent.
V = airplane velocity.
FS = Engine thrust.
D = airplane drag.
K.E. Factor = Kinetic Energy Factor dependent onvelocity change.
W = airplane weight.
3-18
The basic noise program has been written for an approach speed defined as
1.3VS + 10 (VEAS) and zero winds,which corresponds with conditions set up
for FAA noise certification. Since the airplane approaches at a constant
calibrated airspeed, the required engine thrust for maintaining a constant
angle of glide is independent of airplane altitude.
The effect of winds on engine thrust required is shown by the following
equations
' IG~u~oR/D
50 FT. GROUND
- sin O=-grad = R/DVGROUM
-grad VAIR _ ,N-D x 1VGROUND W K.E. FACTOR (3.3-2)
(WIND)where: VGROUM = VAIR - VWIND
With the use of the above equations and the flight path profile generated by
the trigonometric relation of the glide angle, engine thrust required on the
approach is calculated and submitted as an input to the noise program.
3-19
3.4 NOISE FOOTPRINT
The noise footprint subroutine has the capability to calculate the coordinates
(x and w) of equal noise points on a flat terrain, and to plot constant noise
contours through these points. In addition, the noise levels directly under
the airplane flight path and at one-quarter nautical mile to either side
thereof are calculated. As the coordinates are calculated, the area enclosed
by tne contour to that point is also calculated. A plotting routine is used
to provide machine plots of the sontonrs.
The footprint calculation utilizes the output of the performance subroutine
to describe the airplane flight path and tables of noise values extracted
from the noise propagation subroutine. If desired, flight path information
may be entered directly into the footprint routine without using the perform-
ance subroutine. The noise propagation data used are with full extra ground
attenuation and without any extra ground attenuation. The transition from
one extreme to the other in the footprint calculation depends on the angle of
elevation, 0, of the noise path to the ground point utilizing the factor
-Ntan 3e from Reference 11.
3.4.1 Footprint Input Parameters
Footprint input parameters include the following: a table of noise levels
versus distance and versus corrected fan speed (N1/q9) for a specific air-
port altitude and temperature; a maximum-noise radiation angle; the noise
level values for -which contours are desired; flight profile data; and an
initial point and associated distance increment for augmentation of the flight
profile data.
The noise level table includes data both with extra ground attenuation and
without. The flight profile data consist of airplane altitude (H) above flat
ground, true air speed, and corrected fan speed, all as functions of distance
along the flight path projection oa the ground. The initial point and dis-
tance increment input permits augmentation of the flJght profile data while
entering a minimum number of points to define the flight path. If the number
of points defining the path in considered adequate, the initial point may ba
picked beyond the termination of the flight profile and no additional pointswill be calculated.
3-20
3.4.2 Footprint Calculation
To obtain the required resolution for contour plotting, the input flight
profile usually is augmented by adding more points by linear interpolationbetween the profile points from the performance subroutine. The input points
are also included in the generated flight path.
As the augmented flight path is being generated, the noise levels under the
flight path (on the extended runway centerline) and on the quarter mile side-
lines are found. The centerline level, L0 , is found by interpolating withLOG H and N /re in the noise data without EGA. The equation X'= X + H cotan e10 1is used to calculate the intercept on the ground. The quarter nautical milesideline level, LS, is found in a similar manner except the interpolation to
find L and L is with LOG R instead of LOG 1 0H, where1 2 10 1
R =WH2 + 15202 feet (3.4-1)L1 and L2 are the levels at R with and without EGA, respectively. Accordingly,

where= arcsin (H sin e/R) degrees (3.4-3)
Note: If 6 >30 then pis set to 300.
Here, the equation X" = X + R cotan a gives the intercept on the ground for
the sideline noise.
In each of the above cases, if the level is an EPNL, a velocity correction tc
the duration must be made. It has the form C = 10 LOG (16o/v), and is added
to the levels found above.
For each noise level for which a contour is required, the distances R1 and R2
must be found using inverse interpolation in the noise data table with entry of
"L 10 Rj (j = 1,2) for each NjVe. The distance R1 and R2 are without EGA andwith EGA, respectively. This will result in tables of R and R2 versus N kle

3-21
If the levels are EPIM, a velocity correction must be made for the duration.
In this instance it is 160/V and multiplies the distance R, and R2 above.
The contour's half width, W, then, is fR2 - H. The distance along the flightpath to the point on the contour is
X' =X + R cotan e ft. (3.4-5)
The area enclosed by a contour is calculated using trapezold}il rulequadrature. This equation is
Area -Area i + 3.587 X 10 8 (X' - X_) (Wi +wi 1 ) sq.mi. (3.4-6)

where 0.5 accounts for the application of the trapezoidal rule and the 2
hccounts for both sides of the centerline. The 1 accounts for the con-
version from square feet to square miles. An example of a contour Dlot is
-included in Section 4, following.

SECTION 4PROGRAM APPLICATION
Representative ways of using the Noise Definition Program and its sister
program, the Noise Propagation Program, are presented in Section 4. Section
4.1 presents data which substantiate the mathematical model of the Noise
Definition Program with respect to comparison with measured flight test data
for both the takeoff climb profile and noise at the 3.5 n. mi. downrange
point. The programs are put to use to exercise their full capabilities.
Typical sample input and output is presented in Section 4.2.

4.1 SUBSTANTIATION WITH FLIGHT TEST DATA
The noise data used are from the L-1011 noise certification flights made on 4,
5 March 1972. The approach data were measured on 4 March and covered a range
of N1W6 from 55.8% to 70.8% at an approach altitude of arproximately 340 feet
above the microphone. The takeoff data were measured on 5 March and covered a
range of altitude from about 1200 feet to 1800 feet at a takeoff NlJMO of
approximately 90%. It was shown in the certification report (Reference 4)
that there were no tone corrections, only Pseudo tone corrections caused by
the rapid fall off of the spectra at the high frequency end at great dis-tances and by irregularities in the spectra at the low frequency end
due to ground reflections. Those were ignored.
The noise data in the form of one-third octave band spectra were normalized
to 200 feet, FAR 36 day, using the methods of FAR Part 36 (Reference 3). These
spectra were then fitted to a curve versus NhrO to produce spectra atI5% increments of NlAe over the range from 55% to 95%. The spectra were then
modified to tie various ambient conditions and attenuation incorporated to
produce tables of noise versus distance N A/e for the various ambient con-
diticns.
The approach performance routine was based on the flight test methods anddata (Reference l0)page 4.0.1-3-2-2, 4.0.1-3-7-2, 4.0.1-3-7-3. For the
conditions of

as seen in Figure 4.1-4, the noise level was found to be 102.70 EPNdB at theone nautical mile point. The certification value for approach was 103
EPNdB for these conditions.

The takeoff flight test noise certification profile for the L-1OIl-1 with
RB.211-22B engines is outlined in Reference 12. The conditions for this
profile are:

Flaps 10 degrees

Airport Temperature 770 F

Figure 4.1-2 shows computer output for the conditions outlined above. A side
by side tabular comparison of the important variables is shown in Figure 4.1-3
and a graphical comparison is made in Figure 4.1-1. It can be seen by this
comparison that the performance subroutine of the combined noise prediction
program matches flight test data within a very small tolerance.
It was shown in the certification rep'ort that around 90% Nýle, the variation
of noise with N was negligible. Using the altitude from the above takeoff
profile at the 3.5 nautical mile point the value of 96.18 EPNdB was obtained.
The certification value for this condition was 96 EPNdB.

4.2.1 Noise Data Generation - Noise Propagation Program
Shown here are three cases run on the Noise Propagation Program: one
showing the averaging of flight test data from Reference 4, the next
showing an input of previously averaged data and the third showing
multiple output conditions. Figure 4.2-1 shows the input listings for
thes- three cases and Figure 4.2-2a through u shows the tabulated
output. An example of plotted noise propagation results - effective
perceived noise leVel versus distance, normalized to 160 knots, on a
FAR Part 36 reference day - is shown as Figure 4.2-3.

Tho Commercial Aircraft Noise Definition stud-y reported in the v,-arior, volumes
of this veport involved the development of a calculation procedure and an
associated computer program for describing an airplane's operations and noise
patterns for takeoffs and approaches. This volume has presented the logic
bel-ind the calculation procedures and has summarized the capabilities of the
program and its subroutines. The program includes a noise propagation section,
an airplane performance section, and a combined routine, footprint section,
which generates datst for plotting constant noise contours for normal airplane
operations and for operational variations, such as takeoff thrust cutback and
two segment approach.
