[0092] Step 3: Analyze the main frequency band f of the exhaust sound source.
[0093] The frequency that has the greatest impact on the total sound pressure level is selected as the main frequency band f of the exhaust sound source.
[0094] Step 4: Select the exhaust muffler configuration.
[0095] According to the main frequency band f of the exhaust sound source, the canceller configuration is selected with the principle of maximizing the sound energy absorption.
[0096] Usually, non-local reactive sound lining can be selected as the muffler design configuration. The non-local reactive sound lining is mainly composed of a perforated panel and a cavity layer, which can broaden the sound absorption frequency band.
[0097] Step 5: Based on the structural parameters of the exhaust muffler, establish the acoustic impedance z expression of the exhaust muffler perforated plate, and establish the sound field p inside the exhaust muffler cavity c 'expression.
