Application of resonance in one end closed pipe in real life

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the applications of resonance in one end closed pipes, particularly in musical instruments such as pan pipes, organ pipes, and flutes. Participants highlight the significance of natural resonance in open pipes and its implications for tuning instruments. Additionally, the concept of resonance is applied in automotive engineering, where hot rodders adjust the lengths of intake and exhaust manifolds to optimize engine performance at specific RPMs. These applications demonstrate the practical relevance of resonance in both music and engineering.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of acoustic resonance principles
  • Familiarity with musical instrument construction
  • Basic knowledge of automotive engineering concepts
  • Experience with physics experiments related to sound
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the physics of resonance in closed and open pipes

Hello,
My name is muaadh.
I had an experiment in Physic about resonance in one end closed pipe.
Our homework is to find applications in real life about this experiment.
This photo of our experiment.

There is natural resonance due to the whole length of an open pipe. Are you suggesting loading the pipe with a further resonator at one end?

I want just applications about this experiment. where can I find applications in our life?
 
Hot rodders have been known to tune the lengths of the intake and exhaust manifolds on their engines for more efficient flow at a particular RPM. The pulsations due to the valves opening and closing can reinforce each other at resonance to achieve this.
