Hello,
Sound levels result in Hevacomp shows as overall value in the room and for the attenuation required section is shown for each octave and so ,I was wondering if these results for the overall value in the room are available for each octave bands.
Thanks,
Manuel Toledo Castillo
Hi Manuel, can you please confirm what calculation you are referring to? Is it the Hertz program within Hevacomp mechanical design?

Hello Shane,
It is Hevacomp mechanical design which I am using for estimate the sound level.
Thanks
Thanks Manuel,
I assume the specific program is Hertz as below?
If so I am a little unclear as to what you are asking, as all of the results are displayed for each octave band as below. Could you please clarify?
Sorry If I didn't explain well.
I am using the System builder for creating my rooms, the routing of the Hvac system and I get s result like that:
Is this result available for each octave bands?
Thank you
Manuel
Hi Manuel,
Thanks for clarifying. These results are limited to those shown. However a more detailed breakdown of the noise levels can be obtained if you calculate your ductwork as in reports below:
I assume that noise levels are before apply the correction factors for distance, room size, room acoustic characteristic,reverberation etc..
The calculation methodology can be viewed in the Outlets section of the manual, ie:
