Bibliography

Gives a method for testing ducted fans and other air-moving devices to determine the sound power radiated into an anechoically terminated duct on the inlet and/or outlet side of the equipment. Applicable to fans which emit steady, broad-band and discrete-frequency sound and to air temperatures between -50 degrees C and +70 degrees C.
