Finite-Difference Time-Domain Models of Open Windows

18th November 2013KTP, Natural Ventilation, Research, Sustainable Acoustics, Vented Facades

An important area of research for MACH Acoustics, below are a few examples of a FDTD model we have produced to demonstrate various open window conditions.

First a top swung window, notice the noise ingress into the room.

The above but as a bottom swing.

An open window representation.

The above but with a internal baffle.
