Abstract:A way to absorb and filter low-frequency sound that is generated by sound sources in one or more enclosures is described. A sound generating room is encapsulated within an outer acoustic absorbing room that contains various openings to several acoustic ducts. The acoustic ducts function as an acoustic waveguide to the open air. At each end of the acoustic duct is an impedance matching tapered acoustic horn. In the sound generating room the horn serves as an acoustic absorber that tapers sound into the acoustic… Show more
