An adaptive muffler upgrades the conventional muffler with a variable geometry to extend its working range. Adaptive muffler systems, described in the available literature, operate on the principle of controlling only a single property of the muffler to tune its working range. During the adaptation process of these systems, the basic principle of operation is not changed. Based on the literature review, the question arises of whether it would be possible to control the principle of operation. At one instant it would work as a Helmholtz resonator, in the other as an expansion chamber or side branch resonator. Analytical calculations provided a positive answer, and a muffler with four active valves was designed and constructed to confirm the theoretical expectations. The properties of proposed muffler were simulated with the Finite Element Method, and the results of simulations were validated with measurements. Finally, simulations of the proposed muffler were performed, working at different operating condition. Simulations have shown that the proposed system allows the tuning of the muffler to a wide working frequency range. Such an approach to muffler design eliminates the need for additional mufflers in IC exhaust systems. Therefore, a smaller volume of the proposed muffler enables the same effect as multiple non-adaptive conventional mufflers.
