sound power absorption coefficient attributed to a surface by the Eyring reverberation-time equation
NOTE – The Eyring reverberation-time equation is:
where:
T is the reverberation time
V is the volume of the room
c is the speed of sound in the contained air
S = Σ Si is the total area of surfaces of the room
is the area-weighted mean Eyring coefficient of all the surfaces
Si is the area of the i-th surface
αi is Eyring sound power absorption coefficient attributed to the i-th surface. The equivalent absorption area of the i-th surface is Siαi.
