Abstract
A system for attenuating acoustic energy in machines is provided. The system may include an inner tube disposed about a central axis, an outer tube disposed about the inner tube and the central axis, and a middle tube disposed about the central axis and between the inner tube and the outer tube. The system may also include a first annular ring extending radially from the outer tube and configured to couple the outer tube to the middle tube. The system may further include a second annular ring extending radially from the inner tube and configured to couple the inner tube to the outer tube, such that an acoustic resonator may be formed by the first annular ring, the second annular ring, a portion of the inner tube, a portion of the outer tube, and a portion of the middle tube.
