Introduction
An ideal mufer for a ICE should work as a low pass lter: attenuation should be applied to the uctuating ow which is associated with the acoustic pressure uctuation, while the steady or mean ow should be allowed to pass unimpeded through the mufer.
- The performance of a silencer can be described by two key parameters: - the attenuation of the pressure uctuations crossing the mufer over a pre-dened wide frequency range, usually 20-2000 Hz - the pressure drop associated with convective and dissipative effects of the mean ow: it affects both the acoustic attenuation performance and the back pressure seen by the engine
http://www.engines.polimi.it
The acoustic performance of acoustic silencers is determined by the Transmission Loss, dened as the ratio of Sound Pressure Level spectrums (Lp ) of incident waves: TL(fn ) = 20log10 pups + (fn ) pdws + (fn )
- all acoustic frequencies of the eld of interest must be excited: large-band acoustic sources - anechoic termination is needed Since the gas pressure in the domain is the result of superimposition of incident waves coming from the source and reections from the boundaries, it is impossible to directly measure the incident components of the pressure pulsation. Hence, algorithms for data postprocessing based on the general hypotheses of the linear acoustics are used (two-sensor method).

Motivation
The objective of this study is: - to develop a three-dimensional time-domain approach based on the CFD simulation to evaluate the transmission loss of silencers and resonators without and with mean ow - to examine the inuence of mean ow on the acoustic attenuation performance of complex silencers ... but: - an inlet b.c. to model different acoustic sources is needed - acoustic simulations of compressible ows require an accurate control of wave reections from the computational domain boundaries. Acoustic waves are often modied by numerical dissipation - the waveTransmisive b.c. in OpenFOAM is not perfectly non reecting; small acoustic waves are reected to the inner domain - there is the need for sophisticated boundary conditions (NSCBC), which can handle correctly the transmission and the reection of acoustic waves on boundaries

Different kind of time-varying perturbations are applied at the inlet boundary patch Ad-hoc developed run time controls ensure correct case setup and avoid aliasing due to poor frequency resolution or to non physical frequency signals distorting the spectrum in the chosen range (Oppenheim and Schaffer)

Numerical solution
Governing equations have been solved by a multistage time stepping scheme in t n,k : t n,k t n + k t = t n + k t K k [1; K ] (1)
where t n,k is a variable local fractional time-step. The method consists of the iteration of two main steps:
k 1) Evaluation of backward spatial derivatives at t n and of the uxes at time t n + K t; conservation equations are solved sequentially. The solution is rst order in time.
2) Fluxes and source terms calculated at the previous step are used to nd the solution at time t n + k+1 t. The time accuracy of this method is of the second order at this stage. K The process is iterated until the solution at the new time t n+1 t + t is calculated. The time stepping algorithm: - requires a relatively small amount of memory storage - it is more stable and accurate - it allows for larger global time steps in the simulation than a traditional explicit method.

Case setup
- solver: pisoFoam - temporal discretisation: Crank-Nicholson scheme - differential operators: standard nite volume discretisation of Gaussian integration - working uid: air - boundary conditions: - inlet : pressure pulse with frequency content f[20;2000] Hz (step 20 Hz) - outlet: non-reective NSCBC anechoic boundary condition - walls : adiabatic, no-slip condition - time step limited by the CFL criterion (max. Courant=0.4). Max time-step: 106 s - perturbation period T = 1/ min(fmin , fstep ). Two periods were needed to reach full convergence in the simulation. Max time step used guarantees a sampling frequency that satises the Nyquist sampling law
