Principle

You can choose an existing noise indicator or specify new characteristics from an existing indicator.

An indicator covers the simulation periods corresponding to the map.

Indicator LDEN

Indicator LDEN

Each time an indicator is changed, fields are automatically updated.

Each period can be activated/disabled and its weighting (Weig.) altered (from 0 to 30).

Formula applied to determine the acoustic level (unit: dB or dB(A))

Formule pour déterminer le niveau

where :

i is a period of time (day, evening, etc.).

Leqi the equivalent (eq) sound level over the period i.

Ti is the number of hours in the period i.

Ci is the weighting coefficient for a period i.

Dynamic indicators

A simulation with a storage mode of the LAmax type allows access to dynamic indicators:

important

The Facade subtraction -3dB option (or not taking the last facade reflection into account) that appears in the case of maps that include only facade receivers is automatically selected for LDEN, LN indicators.

When to select the Facade subtraction -3dB option:

Is the receiver associated with a building?

Was the chosen indicator included in the last facade reflection?

Does the simulation have at least one reflection?
