+
+Description
+    Calculates the acoustic power due to the volume of isotropic turbulence
+    using Proudman's formula
+
+    The acoustic power \f$ P_A \f$ [W/m3] in terms of turbulence \f$ k \f$
+    and \f$ \epsilon \f$ is given as:
+
+        \f[
+            P_A = alpha_\epsilon \rho \epsilon M_t^5
+        \f]
+
+    where \f$ alpha_\epsilon \f$ is a constant (0.1) and
+
+        \f[
+            M_t = \frac{\sqrt{2 k}}{a_0}
+        \f]
+
+    with \f$ a_0 \f$ the speed of sound.  The acoustic power is also output in
+    dB using:
+
+        \f[
+            L_P = 10 \log \frac{P_A}{P_ref}
+        \f]
+
+    where \f$ P_ref \f$ is a constant (1e-12 W/m3)
+
+Usage
+    Example of function object specification to calculate the Proudman acoustic
+    power:
+    \verbatim
+    proudmanAcousticPower1
+    {
+        type        proudmanAcousticPower;
+        libs        ("libfieldFunctionObjects.so");
+        ...
+
+        // Required additional entries for incompressible calculations
+        rhoInf      1.225;
+        aRef        340;
+    }
+    \endverbatim
+
+    Where the entries comprise:
+    \table
+        Property | Description                              | Required | Default
+        type     | type name: proudmanAcousticPower         | yes |
+        rhoInf   | Freestream density (for incompressible)  | no  |
+        aRef     | Reference speed of sound (for incompressible) | no  |
+        alphaEps | Model coefficient                        | no  | 0.1
+    \endtable
+
+Note
+    The freestream density and reference speed of sound are only necessary
+    when a thermodynamics package is unavailable, typically for incompressible
+    cases.
