A review of flow acoustic effects on a commercial automotive exhaust system - methods and materials

Abstract

Literature review on flow acoustic methods and materials of an automotive muffler. a car is judged comfortable also depending on the acoustic level transmitted inside, and a thorough knowledge of acoustics of ducts and mufflers is needed for the design of efficient muffler configurations. Unstable exhaust gas at high temperature flowing from internal combustion engine manifold may cause of noise and vibrations conflicting with the high standard of acoustic comfort requested by this kind of vehicle. The basic gaols are to define most important methods to identify noise occur from the motion of fluid in case of turbulent model. Materials properties like velocity, temperature, thermal conductivity and density have been technical presented in this work.
