Hello. I have a pair of 15-inch drivers and two closed cabinets of 113 litres. I was wondering if that driver could fit in that box and if anyone here could be so helpful as to give me measurements of a possible bass port. The thiele data is on the attached picture. Thanks.

No problem...my sim has a "wanted" ported enclosure of 130.4 liters of volume, your 113,really close. I just changed it, no real difference.
At 113 liters, I got minus 3.06 Db at 44.15 hertz. Tuned frequency of the box (fb) of 41.54 hertz, Since I saw no power rating in Watts, the port velocity wouldn't come up...I used a 140mm diameter port & got a 130 mm long port.
The efficiency bandwidth product was way up at 97.8 , firmly in the ported camp of design.

Yep, it's a PA style for sure...inputting that 300 watt ability, by retuning to 240 liters worth instead of 113 liters...& dropping the box frequency down to 38 hertz, she can reach down to 34.62 hertz, an even three decibels down.
A 200 mm by 300mm nearly square port, 327mm long....the port velocity is just fine...BTW, the calculations for the 113 liter size has the port velocity a bit on the fast end of the spectrum.

Yeah, at only 113 liters worth, one gets a cube-root of only 483 mm for a fifteen-incher!! A really small enclosure! Most likely a small PA monitor design...something that would be mounted on a tall stand for sound reinforcement.
This driver really isn't suited for "Hi-Fi".
Calling it a "large power sub woofer" is somewhat deceptive.

There ya' go...cheap, "loud" ...common type stuff down here in my adopted Argentina..."Polypropylene, Trapezoid"...even the cabinet is plastic...Oh, sorry "Composites" AKA, junk.

If you can't find the exact size "pipe" for your port, I have some other dimensions...150mm diameter, 157mm long/ 200mm diameter, 327mm long/220mm diameter, 412mm long.Thanks you so much
As the volume of the port goes up, the port air velocity goes down and we are going to eat into the internal volume as well...
