Test cases for control of Nord2000

Summary and conclusions

The present report contains a number of test cases calculated by the new Nordic road traffic noise calculation method Nord2000. The purpose of the test cases is to provide a basis for testing software developed according to the new Nordic model. The test cases are divided into four groups:

1. The group "Straight Road" contains 62 cases for a straight road with only one lane carrying traffic and includes results of L_Aeq,24h, L_AE and L_Amax.
2. The group "Curved Road" contains 8 calculation points distributed along a road with two lanes and a turn, looking more like a "real" case. The group includes results of L_Aeq,24h and L_Amax with three wind conditions.
3. The group "City Street" contains 4 calculation points in a city street environment and includes results of L_Aeq,24h with zero wind.
4. The group "Yearly Average" contains 4 cases where the yearly average of L_den has been calculated.
