The active Helmholtz resonator provides increased acoustic bandwidth by adding a controlled velocity via a secondary sound source. Plane wave tests demonstrated that the concept could be used both the increase a resonator’s absorption bandwidth and induct insertion loss bandwidth. For effective absorption of sound in a two dimensional duct environment, the active resonator concept was combined with a unidirectional radiation technique, which was extended to provide simultaneous suppression of multiple azimuthal, multiple radial and multiple blade-pass harmonic sound fields. The program culminated in a demonstration in the ANCF at NASA Glenn Research CenterRead More
