Can I include sound transmission in an ODEON simulation?

ODEON includes airborne sound transmission through a wall via a sound reduction index. To do so, you should use the “Transmission” wall type in the Material list.

Please not that flanking transmission is not included in ODEON simulations. If you know the influence of the flanking transmission you can manually include it in the sound reduction index for the wall. If you want to make more advanced sound insulation simulations, please check a more appropriate software like Bastian from DataKustik or SONarchitect by Sound of Numbers.

To obtain reliable results in sound transmission studies, it is recommended to use a number of rays corresponding to precision setting or higher, to ensure that the reflection density in the receiver room is at least 50 reflections per ms. If it is too low, you should increase the number of rays. You can see the value of the reflection density either in the Reflection Density tab of a single-point response or at the bottom of the Energy parameters tab in a multi-point response.
