Aero Port Area Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the total area of an aero port.
A = pi*D^2 / 4 * #
- Where A is the total area
- D is the diameter of the aero port
- # is the total number of aero ports
Aero Port Definition
What is an aero port?
An aero port is a space that provides a framework required to enclose sub-woofers within a cabinet.
What are some advantages of aero ports?
- Aero ports are much easier to make then slots when done by hand.
- Aero ports let you change the tune of your enclosured without the need to a new box.
- Aero ports are more efficiency then slots.
What are some disadvantages of aero ports?
- It can be costly to install aero ports.
- The structure is less rigid with aero ports.
- The sound quality can vary.
Example Problem
how to calculate aero port area?
First, determine the diameter of each aero port.
In this example, the diameter is found to be 6 inches.
Next, determine the total number of ports.
In this case, there are 3 ports.
Finally, calculate the total aero port area using the formula above:
A = pi*D^2 / 4 * #
A = 3.14159*6^2 / 4 *3
A = 84.822 in^2
