An Investigation on the Sound Absorption Performance of Granular Molecular Sieves under Room Temperature and Pressure

The sound absorption of granular silica-aluminate molecular sieve pellets was investigated in this paper. The absorption coefficients of molecular sieve pellets with different pore sizes, pellet sizes, and layer thicknesses were measured through impedance tubes under room temperature and pressure co...
