NOISE ELIMINATION METHOD AND MUFFLER BASED ON SOUND RAY REFRACTION THEORY

摘要

A noise elimination method based on sound ray refraction theory and the muffler thereby are disclosed. The method uses low temperature refrigeration system (2) to form a temperature gradient inside and outside the chamber of the muffler, and the temperature inside the pipe wall of the chamber is higher than the outside. The temperature gradient may force sound ray to refract towards the low temperature direction, so the noise of the system may be captured and reduced. The muffler comprises a housing (1) whose inner wall is laid with a sound absorbing structure (4), and on the outer wall of the housing (1) is provided a low temperature refrigerating system (2). The system covers at least 5% of the area of the outer wall of muffler housing and combines with a temperature control system (3) to realize quantitative control of the temperature gradient. The invention improves the noise-absorbing effect of the existing muffler effectively.
