    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Gives a direct and a comparison method to determine the sound power level that would be produced by a source operating in an environment at standard meterological conditions corresponding to a characteristic impedance of pc = 400 N-s/m3. Specifies test room requirements, source location and general rules for operating conditions.
