Abstract
A deresonated fluid system may include a pressurizable fluid line having distal, opposite line ends with the fluid line extending between the line ends. A source may be configured to apply variations in pressure of fluid in the fluid line having a frequency appropriate for producing a standing wave in the fluid line between the line ends. A fluid coupler having opposite first and second coupler ends may be attached to the fluid line in a medial portion of the fluid line between the line ends. A flow acceleration ramp may be formed about an inside of the first coupler end. An artificial acoustic shoulder may be formed about an inside of the second coupler end. The artificial acoustic shoulder may define a substantially central orifice in fluid communication with the flow acceleration ramp.
