ABSTRACT:
An intake duct1is provided, particularly for taking air in an internal combustion engine, notably the engine of an automobile. The duct includes a first wall2made of a porous material, wherein a film4is implemented which is sufficiently thin for avoiding any incidence upon the acoustical characteristics, having notably a surface mass of less than 100 grams per square meter. The film4is fixed onto the porous wall2such that at least 50% of the surface of the film facing the porous wall2is not fixed thereto.
