Abstract

Cylindrical chamber silencers with an extended inlet and outlet are extensively used in many application fields to reduce the propagated noise in ducts. The basic attenuation effectiveness in the low frequency region can be explained by the reactive wave action inside the expansion chamber associated with the geometric configurations of the inlet and outlet locations, and the area expansion of the jacket. In this study. an acoustic analysis is carried out for a concentric extended pipe inserted into a simple expansion chamber. An algebraic equation is derived by using the eigenfunction expansion and orthogonality principle in which the acoustic pressures and particle velocities defined on each subdivided surface are expressed by the separable coordinates. By using the proposed analytical method, transmission losses are predicted for several configurations of the concentric extended systems and they agree very well with experimental results.

입력단 및 출력단이 동심을 이루어 원형 확장관 안으로 연장되어 있는 소음기가 관내 전달 소음저감을 위해 널리 사용되고 있다. 이 소음기의 저주파수 영역에서의 소음저감 효과는 음파 진행 단면의 확장-축소와 입력단 및 출력단의 상대적 위치 등으로 발생되는 소음기의 리액티브 성분에 의해 설명이 된다. 본 논문에서는 입력단 및 출력단에 동심으로 배치된 연장관이 단순 팽창형 소음기 내부에 삽입되어 있는 경우에 대한 음향해석을 수행하였다. 해석방법으로는 음장을 분리좌표계로 표현될 수 있는 몇개의 경계 표면으로 나누고, 각 표면에서의 음압 및 입자속도를 정규화 된 음향 고유 모드로 전개하여 간단한 대수식으로 표현하였다. 이 해석적인 방법을 사용하여 소음기의 투과손실을 예측하였으며, 실험과도 잘 일치함을 관찰할 수 있었다.
