Abstract (en)

The present invention provides a Helmholtz resonance silencer capable of further improving its silencing effect without deviation of its resonant frequency from the frequency of sound to be silenced. The present invention is a Helmholtz resonance silencer including: a body having a cavity part (SC) therein; and a communication hole (18a) for communication between the cavity part (SC) and an outside of the body. The communication hole (18a) has a cross-sectional profile other than a precise circle so as to increase viscous resistance generated between the vibrating air in the communication hole (18a) and the surface defining the communication hole (18a).
