Once again DTU Elektro's Electronics group could offer an interesting SRP exercise on loudspeakers – and once again we had a very good attendance.
The exercise is part of the final year high-school students’ extensive study programme – and it prepares the ground for a combination of the subjects of mathematics and physics.
In two days the high-school students are to design, simulate, produce, and verify a loudspeaker. For this job they get a compendium for design, a simulation model, a glue gun, polystyrene plates (for building the loudspeaker) as well as getting a loudspeaker unit.
When the high-school students have made the design for the loudspeaker, and they have gone through a satisfactory simulation, they build the loudspeaker. Thereafter, they are to measure the loudspeaker and verify their simulation – this part of the exercise is taking place at the Acoustic Technology’s special facility for this, namely, the “anechoic chamber”.
Our impression so far has been that a lot of final year high-school students were working enthusiastically during the two day’s exercise.
