Is there any kind of equation to find the frequency of a sub enclosure?

I have a sub enclosure for 2 12 inch subs, and I don’t know what frequency it’s tuned to. Is there some equation or other method to find the tuned frequency?
if you build the enclosure to the recommended cu.ft for the sub in question you can use a bass test CD like bass mechnix that has the frequencies separated int o tracks and play the tracks one by one till you find the loudest frequency and with a ported enclosure you can tune it to the desired frequency by increasing or decreasing the length and diameter of the port

you’d have to download some speaker modeling software — winisd is the option I’m familiar with. You’d enter all the t/s data for your sub then you can give it enclosure specs comparable to yours and it will tell you what the resulting tuning frequency is.
