Abstract
The propagation of sound in an infinite rigid circular cylindrical duct with an inserted expansion cham-
ber whose walls are treated with an acoustically absorbent, locally-reacting material is investigated rigor-
ously through the Wiener–Hopf technique. The expansion chamber is separated from the central airwaywhich contain a uniform main gas flow by a perforated cylindrical screen which also increases the silencing
performance. The influence of the expansion chamber radius, lining impedances, the mean flow and the
acoustical impedance of the central perforated tube on the transmission loss are displayed graphically.

1. Introduction
The acoustic characteristics of sudden area changes in ducts, such as expansions and contrac-tions are important in noise reduction applications. For example, to reduce the unwanted exhaustnoise produced by internal combustion engines one usually introduces expansion chambers tomuffle the noise as it travels along the duct. A wave propagating through ducts with rapid changesin the cross-sectional area can experience significant reflections which reduce the energy in the

propagating transmitted wave. This, together with cavity resonance mechanisms, is the method bywhich silencer box helps to reduce noise in the car exhaust system [1].The treatment of the duct walls with a thin acoustically absorbent lining is another effective
method that has been proved useful in reducing unwanted noise [2].As a sound attenuator, the acoustic performance of an expansion chamber in a duct can be in-
creased significantly by lining its walls by an acoustically absorbent material [3,4]. The acousticmodelling of simple silencer geometries, such as circular or rectangular cross-sections, has beenestablished and classified depending on the assumption of locally- or bulk-reacting lining. Morse[5] used a locally-reacting model to investigate the sound transmission in pipes with absorbingmaterial on the inner walls. By using bulk-reacting model for linings, Scott [6] studied the trans-mission of sound in infinite rectangular and circular ducts. Ko [7] derived a governing eigen equa-tion for annular and circular ducts containing a bulk-reacting liner and mean gas flow. Later, thepropagation of sound in cylindrical ducts with mean flow and bulk-reacting lining has been trea-ted in a series of papers by Nilsson and Brander [8–11].The acoustic performance of circular silencers have been subjected to numerous past investiga-
tions. For example, Cummings and Chang [12], Kirby [13] and Peat [14] used the well knownmode matching technique in order to calculate the transmission loss of a finite length dissipativecircular silencer. Numerical techniques such as the finite element method [15–17], the boundaryelement method [18,19], and the boundary integral equation method [20] have also been used suc-cessfully to model dissipative silencers.In the present work the propagation of sound in an infinite rigid circular cylindrical duct with
an inserted expansion chamber whose walls are treated with an acoustically absorbent material(characterized by a constant surface impedance) is investigated rigorously through the Wiener–Hopf technique. The expansion chamber is separated from the central airway which contain a uni-form main gas flow by a perforated cylindrical screen. The effect of the perforated center tube is toregulate the main flow and increase the silencing performance (see [20]). The simpler case, wherethe mean flow and central perforated duct are absent, has been recently investigated by the presentauthors [21]. By introducing the Fourier transform for the scattered field and applying the bound-ary conditions in the transform domain, the problem is reduced into a modified Wiener–Hopfequation. The solution involves four sets of infinitely many constants satisfying four infinite sys-tems of linear algebraic equations which are solved by means of numerical procedures. The effectsof the expansion chamber radius, lining admittances, the mean flow and the acoustical impedanceof the central perforated tube on the transmission loss are displayed graphically. For some specialcases, the results are compared with those reported previously in [20,22,23] and it is found that theagreement is excellent.Notice that the results reported in this work may also be used as a benchmark solution for
approximate and numerical treatment of circular silencer problems.
2. Analysis
The silencer studied in the present work is assumed to have a uniform circular cross-sectionwith radius b and to contain a uniform mean gas flow in the central channel of radius a, The veloc-ity of the mean gas flow is v0 =Mc where c is the velocity of sound andM is the Mach number. In

the silencer chamber, a perforate screen separates the central channel (region 1) from the outercavity (region 2). The inlet and outlet pipes with radius a, are rigid walled (see Fig. 1). FromSullivan�s experiment [24], it can be understood that most of the medium flows straight troughthe center tube and only a little mass flows into the outer cavity at the fore stage of the perforatedsurface and flows out at the end part. It is therefore, assumed that the main flow only exists in thecenter tube [13,20].From the symmetry of the geometry of the problem and of the incident field, the acoustic field
everywhere will be independent of /, where (q,/,z), are the usual cylindrical polar coordinates.We shall therefore introduce a scalar potential uj(q,z) which defines the displacement vj, the veloc-ity vj and the acoustic pressure pj, in the regions j = 1 and j = 2 by vj = graduj, vj = gradDjuj andpj ¼ �.0D
2j uj, respectively, with D1 ¼ �ix þMc o
oz and D2 = �ix. Here .0 is the density of theundisturbed medium and a time factor exp(�ixt) has been assumed and suppressed.The walls of the expansion chamber defined by {q = b,z 2 (0, l)}, {q 2 (a,b), z = 0} and
{q 2 (a,b), z = l} are assumed to be coated by a thin acoustically absorbent material. The acousticimpedance of the lining is defined by the ratio Z = p2/(v2 Æ n) [25], where the normal n is directedinto the lining. Thus, in terms of the velocity potential u2, the boundary condition on the absor-bent surface is given by
n � gradu2 �ikf‘u2 ¼ 0;
where k = x/c denotes the wave number, and f‘ (=Z/.0c) is the specific impedance of the lining.Consider the problem of a plane wave, given by

incoming from the left of the junction at z = 0, shown in Fig. 1.For analysis purposes it is convenient to express the total field uT(q,z) as follows:

Note that the half range Fourier transforms, F+(q,a) and F�(q,a) are regular func-tions of a in the regions Ima > Im{�k/(1 +M)} (upper half-plane) and Ima < Im{k/(1 �M)}(lower half-plane), respectively, whereas F1(q,a) is an entire function.Solving (4) by taking into account the finite energy condition for q = 0, it is found that

For stationary media and graz-ing flow, empirical formulae of specific acoustical impedance fp proposed by Sullivan and Crocker[26] are used.

The regularity of the right-hand side of (31) may be violated by the presence of simple poleslying at the lower (Ima < Imk) and upper (Ima > Im(�k)) halves of the a-plane, namely ata = � am(m = 1,2, . . . , Im � am < Im � k) and a = am, (m = 1,2, . . . , Imam > Imk), respectively.These poles are the simple zeros of the function L(a) and satisfy the equation

In what follows, some graphical results showing the effects of various parameters of the silenceron the transmission loss are presented. For numerical purposes the roots ±am of Eq. (32a) and b�
mof Eq. (40) should be determined. The Newton–Raphson algorithm is used to determine theseroots.Notice that, when 1/f‘ approaches zero, the roots n�
m tend to the values reported in [8].All the numerical results were derived by truncating the infinite series and the infinite systems of
linear algebraic equations after the first N terms. Table 1 shows the variation of the modulus oftransmission coefficient T against the truncation number N, for different values of the surfaceimpedance f‘. It is seen that the infinite series converge rapidly enough to truncate it after the firstfew terms. The truncation number is chosen as N = 5.The walls of the expansion chamber are assumed to be coated by a thin fibrous sheet for which
the surface impedance is [2]:

In Fig. 3a–c the influence of the specific impedance f‘ of the acoustical lining on the transmis-sion loss
TL ¼ �20 log10jTj ð54Þ
are displayed in the cases whereM = 0,M = 0.05 andM = 0.1, respectively. ForM = 0, Eq. (29a)and for M 5 0 Eq. (29b) are used to account for the perforated tube surface impedance fp. Theperforate hole diameter dh, the wall thickness of perforated tube tw and the porosity r are assumedto be dh = 2.49 · 10�3 m, tw = 0.9 · 10�3 m, r = 0.08 for the case of Fig. 3a, and dh = 2.49 · 10�3m, tw = 0.81 · 10�3 m, r = 0.037, for the cases of Fig. 3b and Figs. 4–6.In the case of Fig. 3a the mean flow in the central tube is absent. We see that an expansionchamber with an absorbing lining have generally significantly higher acoustic attenuation thanthe one with no lining. When the surface impedance of the lining increases, the repeating domescorresponding to rigid expansion chamber are transformed to a single broad peak. The graphscorresponding to vanishing surface admittance (1/f‘ = 0) in Fig. 3a are exactly the same as theones previously obtained in [19, Fig. 6] and [20, Fig. 8], respectively. Similarly, the result related

to the case 1/f‘ = 0, fp = 0 andM = 0, which is displayed in Fig. 3c, coincide with the result givenin [22, Fig. 4].From Fig. 4, it is seen that the mean flow velocity has an important effect on the performance of
the silencer. The magnitude of the TL peak is reduced when the mean flow velocity increases.Figs. 5 and 6 depict the transmission loss versus the frequency for different values of the expan-
sion chamber radius b and length l, respectively. It is observed that beyond 1200 Hz approxi-mately, the transmission loss decreases with increasing values of b. As to the effect of theexpansion chamber length, it is seen that the magnitude of the noise reduction peak is increasedwith the increasing values of l.Finally, Fig. 7 shows the effect of the central perforated tube on the acoustic performance of the
silencer. In the presence of mean flow, the porosity parameter r in Eq. (29b) is changed while the

other quantities are kept as in the previous cases. It is observed that the magnitude and the cor-responding frequency of the main TL peak are increased as the porosity is increased.
4. Concluding remarks
A rigorous Wiener–Hopf approach is adopted to analyze the acoustic performance of a cylin-drical silencer whose walls are treated with a locally reacting absorbant liner. The expansionchamber is separated from the central airway which contain a uniform main gas flow by a perfo-rated cylindrical screen. The effect of the perforated center tube is modelled as a partially trans-missing surface characterized by the boundary conditions in (28a,b). The final solution involvesfour systems of linear algebraic equations involving four sets of infinitely many unknown
A. Demır, A. Buyukaksoy / International Journal of Engineering Science 43 (2005) 398–416 415
coefficients. Numerical solution to these systems is obtained for various values of the silencerparameters. In the case where the mean flow and the central perforated tube are absent, the resultsreduce exactly to those previously obtained in [21]. Furthermore, the graphs corresponding tovanishing surface admittance (1/f‘ = 0) in Fig. 3a and b are exactly the same as the ones previouslyobtained in [19, Fig. 6] and [20, Fig. 8], respectively. Similarly, the result related to the case 1/f‘ = 0, fp = 0 and M = 0, which is displayed in Fig. 3c, coincide with the result given in [22,Fig. 4]. These can be considered as an accurate check of the analysis carried out in this work.It is worth pointing out that this work may also serve as a benchmark solution for approximateand numerical techniques used for dealing with circular silencer problems.
