Since the acoustic heating theory (c.f. Ulmschneider 1979) has been proven successful for the solar chromosphere, it was common practice to extend this concept to other stars. However, as it appeares from observed chromospheric and coronal emissions, the usual theoretical acoustic fluxes for red dwarf star, particularly, are too small to account for the heating of chromospheres and coronae (e.g. Blanco et al 1974; Vaiana et al, 198l) . It is therefore the intention of this paper to discuss improvements on the current model calculations for turbulent sound generation from outer convection zones.
