Abstract

The airflow generated noise inside a simple expansion chamber muffler is predicted by combining Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and Morhing acoustic analogy in the present work, and the good agreement is observed between the predictions and measurements. Research indicates that wall pressure fluctuations are dominated by hydrodynamic pressure fluctuations within the distance of three pipe diameters in the outlet pipe, and wall pressure fluctuations beyond the distance of six pipe diameters downstream are dominated by sound pressure fluctuations. The airflow generated noise is mainly attributed to the vortex generated by structural change in the muffler. The strong influences at the longitudinal resonance frequency and antiresonance frequency of the expansion chamber are observed.
