  2. p vs r log p vs log r SOUND FIELD Free field Reflections

  3. Sound decay Sound decay in a 400 m3 classroom Sound pressure level as a function of time for that room

  4. GROWTH AND DECAY OF REVERBERANT SOUND RT = K (volume / area) RT = 0.161 V/A(V in m3; A in m2 ) If room dimensions are given in feet, the formula may be written: RT= 0.049 V/A (V in ft.3 ; A in ft.2 )

  5. Decay of reverberant sound • and (b) are decay curves of sound pressure and sound • level in a room with uniform energy distribution • (c) shows different initial and final reverberation times • (d) shows peaks due to prominent standing waves or room • resonances

  6. CALCULATING REVERBERATION TIME

  7. CALCULATINGREVERBERATION TIME

  8. Desirable reverberation times for various sizes and functions Variation of reverberation time with frequency in good halls
