Optimization of sound absorbers and mufflers
- calculation of the sound propagation (sound absorption, sound reflexion, sound insulation) above layered absorbers by applying different absorber models (e. g. homogeneous model, phenomenological model) with sound absorber software AcoustiCalc® Absorber
- prediction and optimization of the sound absorption in mufflers and silencers as well as absorbent-lined ducts by both analytical models with muffler software AcoustiCalc® Silencer and by numerical calculation (see FEM)
