How do you figure out aero port displacement inside box


Recommended Posts

Before I get yelled at, Ive tried downloading the torres box calculator and my computer is a pos and it doesnt work no matter what I do. So....

My original plan was a box 40w20h20d with a single 10" aero port at 27" long to achieve 31hz tuning around 6 cubes for my sa-15s. Looking at that design I was not sure if the subs would mount without touching the port inside the box so I cut it a little bigger to be safe. The box has not been put together yet, but the dimensions for it now are 40w24h20d. Ive used a few differnt methods to figure out my cubic ft and im coming up with 9.6 which is way too much.

So to solve my dilema I need to first figure out if this is correct. And secondly I need to figure out how many cubes my 10" aero port is taking up.

If I cant figure this out I will be doing better measurements in the morning to see if my original design will work.

Thanks for any input on this.

Volume of a cylinder.

V = π X R² X H (Volume = Pi X Radius squared X Height)

Volume = 2121.428 cubic inches.

2121.428 cubic inches = 1.227 cubic feet.

It's actually a little more than that, but I don't know the thickness of those Sono-Tubes, which is what I assume you're using. You'll have to tell me the external diameter of the tube.

I think the outside diameter is just over ten inches. Its all good, built the box today with my original measurements, and omg it hits so freakin low. THANKS FOR THE DESIGN BASSRACE!!!
