Abstract

The diffraction of a plane wave of sound caused by right-angled joints in rectangular tubes is computed by calculating the impedance elements of the equivalent circuit for the discontinuities, the propagation of the principal wave being represented by the voltage and current on a transmission line. A numerical example is given.
