For pressure pulsation attenuation, mufflers designed using the Helmholtz resonator approach are applied. Nowadays, the variable revolution speed compressors requires new design methods for pressure pulsation damping elements. One of the possibilities to attenuate the pressure pulsations is the introduction of specially shaped nozzles in the gas duct flow. In this paper, the impulse flow simulations conducted in FLUENT/ANSYS. The experimental validation of the simulation results is also presented.
