Room Acoustic Hvac Operations Package

Calculates source-bound RT60, air-change, HVAC/equipment receiver level, combined room noise, and occupancy metrics from a deterministic SSC-12 task-owned source pack.

with-tool: The model is given an executable Python calculator script.

Difficulty

Each template is sampled at three tiers. Harder tiers may hide inputs, forcing the model to infer them from the scenario description.

All inputs remain visible at every tier

For this template, difficulty scales through parameter and scenario ranges rather than hidden information.

easy:
All source-pack values given for the SSC-12 room acoustic HVAC package
medium:
All source-pack values given for the SSC-12 room acoustic HVAC package
hard:
All source-pack values given for the SSC-12 room acoustic HVAC package
