Flow Noise
A term generally used to describe aerodynamic noise produced when a gas flows within a duct or when the gas exits the duct, hence flow noise. This is a typical problem observed in the exhaust [more…]
Acoustic Filter Elements
There are a number of different ways to attenuate the sound waves propagating down a duct (eg air intake, exhaust system) and I thought it would be good to list these different acoustic filter elements, [more…]
Exhaust System Design
Exhaust system design is primarily about managing the gases ejected from an engine as waste products are transported away from the engine using an exhaust system. The main features that must be considered are: Acoustic [more…]
