This study focuses on a performance improvement of the vent silencer using acoustic analysis. Since the vent silencer is generally used for a high level shock noise, it should be designed to reduce a wide frequency band noise. In the designing stage of the vent silencer, structural shapes of diffuser and splitter are the most significant design parameters. Effects of modifying the original structure of the diffuser and the splitter are analyzed and evaluated. From the results, It is found that the diffuser with two pipes and double-step structure more effectively reduces a wide frequency band noise but the increment of the number of splitters is not desirable.

Acoustic performance of splitter silencers was investigated by using 3-dimensional commercial software and experiments. Flow resistivity of sound absorbing material was indirectly estimated by using an impedance tube setup and a curve fitting method. In addition the acoustic impedance of perforated plate was determined by an empirical formulation. Such properties have been used as input parameters in the commercial software. The prediction for a splitter silencer with 1000 mm length was compared with the experimental result. The numerical method is then applied to identify the effects of number of splitters, length of splitters, absorptive material density, and porosity of a perforated plate on the performance of the splitter silencers. As the number and length of splitter increases, the acoustic performance significantly increases. Although the increase of density of absorptive material also increase the acoustic performance, a change in the density over a certain level hardly affect it. The increase of porosity will enhance the performance especially at higher frequencies.

This paper describes the design program of duct silencer. Duct silencer is used ventilating system. Variables in the program for predicting transmission loss are width of splitter, airway width, perforate plate, absorption material and frequency. Generally used expression for predicting transmission loss has something that don't think about frequency characteristic. Therefore we propose the new expression that considered frequency characteristic. In the 1/1 octave band center frequency, the expected weighting number(K) is fitted with absorption ratio and airway width. The fitted 2nd degree polynomial expression is based on the test data performed in YOUIL Industrial Corperation. This program's accuracy is about 90 percent.

Based on ISO 7235, an experimental setup to measure the acoustic performance of splitter type dissipative silencers was fabricated. The length of each duct, sound source, microphone locations, modal filter, and anechoic termination were considered in the design of this setup. The modal filter is a particularly important factor because it affects the limit of measurement. The effects of number of splitters, absorptive material density, perforate plate, and media on the noise reduction of the sample silencers were experimentally investigated. The experimental results show that the insertion loss of a silencer with media, high perforate opening, and higher number of splitters increases especially at higher frequencies.

The wall pressure fluctuations of a turbulent boundary layer over a flat plate have been investigated in an anechoic wind tunnel facility. The anechoic wind tunnel consists of acoustically-lined duct, muffler, and splitter-type silencer for noise suppression and vanes for reducing head losses involved. To improve spectra characteristics in high frequency range, a 1/8" pressure-type microphone sensor, which has a pin-holed cap of various diameters, was employed in this experiment. It was shown that the pin-holed microphone sensor with a dimensionless diameter $d^+$ of 7.1 resolved the high frequency pressure fluctuations most effectively among ones with various pin-hole diameters. The measured wall pressure spectra in terms of three types of scaling parameters were in good agreement with other experimental and numerical results. The pressure events of high amplitude were found to contribute to total fluctuating pressure energies in the turbulent boundary layer significantly and supposed to radiate to the far-field effectively.
