Abstract
By using steady flow relations including pressure loss coefficients a method is developed for calculating wave action in a duct with a gauze. Both steady and non-steady flow experiments for five gauzes are described. The results of the non-steady flow tests showed excellent agreement between the predicted indicator diagrams, using the steady flow pressure loss coefficients, and the measured indicator diagrams. The methods described in the paper may be used by engine designers to predict the effect of gauzes or similar devices on the wave action in exhaust systems of internal combustion engines.Keywords
