So the pressure is on.
Or is it?
Hi Mark,
I am now getting the correct results. I need to do some further tests though, before releasing an update - hopefully it won't take too long!
Kind regards,
David
Hornresp Update 3940-150924
Hi Everyone,
The error detailed in Post #5734 has now been fixed. My thanks to Twellmann for reporting the problem.
For the test example given in Post #5734, the horn mouth peak sound pressure at 28 Hz has changed from 29788.0696 Pa to 229.5493 Pa.
Sanity check:
Mouth peak pressure = 229.5493 Pa
Mouth rms or effective pressure = 229.5493 / Sqrt(2) = 162.3159 Pa
Mouth sound pressure level = 20 * Log10(162.3159 / (2 * 10 ^-5)) = 138.1866 dB
Half space SPL at distance of 1 metre = 134.6590 dB
Kind regards,
David

Patiently waiting.
Your wait is over .
What is the comparable throat pressure?Hi Everyone,

What is the comparable throat pressure?
Hi Andrew,
Throat peak pressure = 3797.3884 Pa
Throat rms or effective pressure = 3797.3884 / Sqrt(2) = 2685.1591 Pa
Throat sound pressure level = 20 * Log10(2685.1591 / (2 * 10 ^-5)) = 162.5588 dB
Kind regards,

Tech support's wages should be doubled.
2 x $0.00 = $0.00 .
Hi Andrew,
Not when it's pressure due to sound . An effective pressure of 3.7 kPa is equivalent to an SPL of 165 dB.
It depends on the amount of distortion you are prepared to tolerate. The Hornresp Sample tool will give you the percentage second-harmonic distortion for single-segment horns.
Kind regards,
David
3.7kPa is quite low.

What pressures are we expecting when designed start talking about distortions due to over driving?

And now for something completely different.
Hi David,
There is an old Cologne, Germany carnival song that states "Drei mol null es null es null" (3 x 0 = 0 = 0) , so I assume your calculations of your tech support wages are spot on. Thank you.
I'm sitting with SWMBO in Rom, and we are trying to straighten out the mess, credit card accounts, and bank accounts that were affected by her wallet being stolen out of her purse. Note to anyone who cares: don't assume that there is anything on you body that is safe from theft in Rom; those guys are good. Even in a closed purse, it's not safe. Always keep you wallet in your front pocket under one hand. Don't let anyone push you. All the people you have to deal with in the hotels, etc. are just great, but there are others. Well, so much for the travel report, with any luck it won't be to long until we're back home. If you plan a trip to Rom, go to Paris.
Regards,

And every time a helper asks me for a raise I hand them a ladder.
I'm not evil all the time. I do sleep from time to time.

But, we won't let the confused and evil ones win.
That's the spirit!
Onward and upward.
Wishing you the better half of your vacation Oliver.
