Reverberation time calculation – Planning with the OWA area acoustics calculator.
In recent years, the sensitivity to acoustic design of occupied areas has increased in importance. The responsible planning authorities try to pre-determine product qualities in many building projects.
As an aid to the correct product selection of OWA wall absorbers or ceiling tiles, our on-line calculation service will suit all planners for initial arithmetical estimations of the reverberation time T [s] . With the calculation programme, you can check whether the acoustics in the area planned by you meet the corresponding requirements.
Note: Java Runtime Environment (JRE) required
If the reverberation time calculator does not run, it may be because the required Java plug-in (Java-VM) is not enabled in your computer.
To use OWA reverberation time calculator, you need Java Runtime Environment (JRE) from SUN. This tool can be downloaded free-of-charge at: http://www.java.com
You can check, whether JRE is enabled in your web browser, as follows:
