<< Click to display Table of content >> Navigation:  The Model > The sources > Industrial sources > Point sources > Add a point source

•From the ribbon Model, click on the button in the group Add items.

•The Point tool is active. Click in the graphic window where to place the source.

•The Point Source interface is displayed so that the parameters of the input point can be entered.

•Enter the geometric parameters which correspond to the positioning of the source in the model.:

oThe source Height.

oThe Azimuth.

oThe Vertical angle.

For an omnidirectional source, the azimuth and the vertical angle have no impact on simulations.

 

The graphics are automatically updated in accordance with the parameters.

•Enter the acoustic parameters:

oA Comment.

oA Nature. The button can be used to add a nature.

oThe name of the reference model. The model mode allows to select a model stored in the List of reference models (so previously created). This is useful when several sources share the same spectrum.

The button allows you to access the interface of the characteristics of the reference model (in view only mode).

oThe percentages of use for each period.

The corresponding spectrum window is accessed via the button or via the context menu:

The button allows to convert the source to spectrum mode. The interface is then modified.

The button allows to go to model mode. The interface is then modified again. Note that when you come back to Base, the model will be the first of the list and not the one that you could have set before to switch in Spectrum.

•Click OK to confirm.

 

The buttons allow to:

•Increase/Decrease spectrum by +/-1 or +/-10.

•Reset the spectrum to 0.

•Copy the spectrum.

•Paste the spectrum.
