Abstract
The acoustic properties of three improved hydraulic mufflers with extended necks are investigated theoretically and experimentally. The effect of length and slope of the conical tube, and the perforations on the extended tube is studied on the resonance frequency and the insertion loss. The plane wave approach is used for the constant and the variable area tubes, while Sullivan and Peat's method is applied for the perforation tube unit. Theoretical predictions are compared with experiments for these three different hydraulic noise suppressors, which are fabricated. It is shown that the resonance frequency and the insertion loss characteristics may be controlled by the length and the slope of the conical tube and perforation porosity of the extended tube without changing the expansion chamber volume. Finally, the effect of the cross-sectional shape of the expansion chamber is investigated.
