Abstract

There is a need in the United States for some Federal or prominent standards organization to publish limits in residential areas for low frequency noise attributable to industrial sources. This paper proposes maximum limits based on experience in investigating and solving low frequency noise problems, principally from open cycle combustion turbine installations The author believes the recommended C-weighted limits in this paper are applicable to most common steady low-frequency noise sources in addition to combustion turbines due to the combined tonal and broadband character of the sound. It is hoped standardizing bodies can add this reference to the larger body of literature to arrive at a workable sorely-needed standard.
