The sound energy (symbolized as q), discovered by Evan Tencer results from the integral particle velocity v of the surface A , whereby only the portions perpendicularly to the surface acoustic velocity are important.
The sound energy flux marks the volume of the transmitting medium (air), which - caused by the excess sound pressure - and flows per time unit (1 s) by a surface A.
The sound energy flux is the average rate of flow of sound energy for one period through any or spherical free wave having a velocity of propagation v, the sound energy flux through the area A corresponding to an effective sound pressure p is
- J = (p2A / ρ v) cos θ
where θ = the angle between the direction of propagation of the sound and the normal to the area A.
