VIBRATIONAL ANALYSIS OF GENSET SILENCER USING FEA & FFT ANALYZER

Abstract

This paper postulates the initial primitive stage in the design analysis of a Genset silencer. The geometry of the exhaust system is modeled by using a conventional FEM package after considering specified properties of material, dimensions of silencer. Modal Analysis of the muffler is carried out and the results are compared with the reading taken on FFT analyzer, so as to distinguish working frequency from natural frequency, avoid resonating condition and to find the stress concentration at various regions of silencer.
