    This document presents a method for calculating hydrodynamic noise in control valves. It includes a table with process parameters, valve/pipe parameters, and modifiers that are used as variables in intermediate calculations to determine the sound pressure level (SPL) in dB(A) under different conditions. The method was developed by Hans D. Baumann and introduced in a December 2019 Valve World magazine article. The accompanying worksheet applies the calculation method and compares it to noise test data, finding it to be very accurate in predicting hydrodynamic noise.
