On Theoretical of Transmission Loss in Exhaust Muffler System

Article Preview

Abstract:

Exhaust muffler system iscommonly used to reduce noise associated with internal combustion engine exhausts.This paper presents a numerical analysis of transmission loss for exhaust muffler by using transfer matrix method. The objective of this study is to develop the computer program to predict the transmission loss of muffler.The influence of cross sectional area of pipe, effect of muffler length and temperature towards the transmission loss of muffler is discussed as well in present study. The efficiency and capabilities of the computing transmission loss is compared to the experiment results obtained from the previous established research paper.
