It can also calculate the frequency if the wavelength and the medium are known or the speed of sound if its frequency and wavelength are known.
Room frequency calculator.
Acoustical room calculator for ceilings 13 feet or lower.
As long as the measurement for the room is done in feet then the calculation automatically cancels out the feet for both the wave speed and the wave length.
The program will automaticly calculate resonanses and detect isolated and degenerate modes.
Peak and dips in the amplitude frequency response curve cause unwanted voice and music coloration.
That s what this calculator is for punch in your room dimensions and you can get a good idea of what the modes are.
The worst type of room shape is a perfect cube say ten feet long ten feet wide and ten feet high because all three dimensions are the same and all three dimensions resonate at the same frequency.
Then treat your room to deal with these frequencies.
A new criterion for the distribution of normal room modes aes journal usa 29 1981.
Basically you are doing a calculation for frequency hertz by dividing the wave speed 1 130 feet per second by the wave length twice the longest dimension of the room.
Thus one can find the optimal room dimensions for home cinemas control rooms sound studios and exercise rooms.
With this calculator you can determine just the right amount of acoustical coverage you ll need to effectively treat your space.
In this example the wavelength will be equal to 29 98 m.
According to the bonello criteria this function should be strictly increasing to reach a good distribution of modes.
The axial tangential and oblique room modes of rectangular homogeneous rooms are computed axial room modes hit on two facing surfaces tangential room modes hit on four surfaces and oblique room modes include six surfaces crosswise.
Plug the numbers in excel or openoffice or something and see where there are some clusters those will be your worst modes.
As a default our calculator uses a value of 299 792 458 m s the speed of light propagating in a vacuum.
This especially refers to the range 95 175 hz marked in light grey.
Substitute these values into the wavelength equation λ v f.
The distribution of the modal frequencies should.
Dividing the room into the particular number of separate sections is an effective way to calculate the room s precise size when it has a unique shape.
Choose the velocity of the wave.
Ranges are displayed as minimum to recommended.
A 10 foot cube shaped room will have a strong inherent resonance near 55 hz which is the open a string on a bass.
Use the dot as a separating char.
Shows the number of modes per third up to your chosen limit frequency beginning with the lowest mode.
Calculate the wavelength of a sound wave propagating in sea water from a transducer at a frequency of 50 khz if the speed of sound in salt water is 1530 m s.
