摘要

This paper presents the results of the acoustic simulation of the Manuel de Falla Auditorium (MFA), Granada, Spain, carried out in CATT-Acoustic and CATT-TUCT. The 3D geometrical acoustic model created for this purpose is tuned by adjusting the absorption and scattering coefficients of the convex reflector ceiling of the auditorium through an iterative process aimed at rendering differences between simulated and measured values for reverberation time in each octave frequency band lower than 5%. The model is validated by comparing simulated and measured figures for the most significant monaural and binaural room acoustic parameters assessed at multiple locations both on the stage and within the audience areas, then by performing both spectral and spatial analyses of their behaviour, and ultimately studying dissimilarities between the two sets of data in terms of just noticeable difference (JND). The influence of the degree of detail of the geometric model on the outcome is also considered by incorporating the 44 iconic lamps specifically designed for this enclosure, into the model. Likewise, the acoustic effect of an already executed seating replacement in the performance space is analyzed in relation to the degree of occupancy of the room. The simulated results confirm the appropriateness of the choice of the new seating for the refurbishment of the concert hall.
