  • Abstract:
    The John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe Center), in support of

    the Federal Aviation Administration, Office of Environment and Energy, has developed

    Version 2.2 of the Heliport Noise Model (HNM). The HNM is a computer program used for

    determining the impact of helicopter noise in the vicinity of terminal operations.

    This document, prepared by the Volpe Center's Acoustics Facility, is a User's Guide for

    HNM Version 2.2. It presents: (1) computer system requirements and installation

    procedures; (2) an overview of HNM capabilities and the user's implementation of these

    capabilities; (3) the elements of a heliport case study; (4) a step-by-step tutorial

    for preparing and running a case study; and (5) the interpretation of HNM Version 2.2

    output. Also presented, in the Appendices of this document, are the following: (1) a

    discussion of the technical revisions made to several internal algorithms - primarily

    revisions which are transparent to HNM users; (2) a discussion of the helicopter noise

    Data Base used by the HNM; and (3) a summary of error messages in the HNM.
