Source Effects on Realized Attenuation in Lined Ducts

Abstract

Acoustic attenuation in uniform and non-uniform ducts is investigated with the purpose of developing a flexible method of prediction of performance of acoustic treatment. Optimization procedures of acoustic treatment based on several criteria have been developed. Comparison between results of the methods developed with test data shows no systematic agreement on either optimum impedance or sound attenuation achieved with given impedance. the study has revealed that optimization and realizable attenuation are very sensitive to details of the source. It is concluded that statistical methods are appropriate for the acoustic design procedure. © 2003 by Walter Eversman.
