Active exhaust silencer
1997
An active silencer for a vehicle exhaust system that is constructed so that it can be hung underneath the vehicle without altering the vehicle. The silencer has a chamber isolated from the exhaust flow. A duct spans longitudinally through the chamber. One or more loudspeakers (e.g. 2 or 4 loudspeakers) are mounted on the duct side-by-side. The loudspeakers share a common tuning volume within the duct which is ported to a mixing apparatus where the canceling acoustic wave mixes with noise from the exhaust flow before the exhaust noise exits to the atmosphere.
