ABSTRACT:
A variably tuned Helmholtz resonator which has a connection establishing fluid communication between fixed volume chamber and a duct of an induction system for an internal combustion engine. The tubular connection has a special configuration which affects changes in open area and length of the tubular connection so as to create a linear relationship between the resonant frequency and the angular position of the tuning plate. The tuning plate is positioned correspondingly to engine speed to provide noise attenuation over a wide range of engine speeds.
