OSTI ID:5320956
Techniques for predicting the noise levels of large cooling towers are presented. These predictions are used to determine whether cooling tower operation would create noise in excess of local noise level codes. Both natural and mechanical draft cooling towers, and noise control are discussed. (LCL)
