Abstract
Quality assessment and improvement of acoustic environment in a classroom
Incoming article date: 17.11.2018Assessment of influence of speech intelligibility and reverberation time on the quality of acoustics Determination by theoretical method and computer simulation method of reverberation time in the modern audience and the audience, built more than 10 years ago. Determination of sound absorption coefficients of surface materials in both classrooms. Modernize of classrooms using wood fiber panels to increase sound absorption and reduce reverberation time. As a result, the reverberation time of the upgraded audiences has become less than one at all frequencies. This ensures good speech quality and efficiency of the educational process.
Keywords: acoustics, classroom acoustics, reverberation time, speech intelligibility, sound absorption coefficient, computer simulation, wood fiber
