The equation for determining the length of a port is as follows:



Where:

diameter of vent (Dv)
number of ports (Np)
volume of box (Vb)
frequency of box (fb)
end correction factor (k)

k values:
vent has one free end and one flanged = 0.732
vent has two free ends = 0.614
vent has two flanged ends = 0.850

Note that a decrease in port length for a given diameter is inversely proportional to the effective tuning frequency.
