Abstract
A muffler may include a thin plate mesh provided in an internal space of an inlet chamber formed at a side opposite to an outlet chamber of a muffler housing such that gas contained in exhaust fluid passes through the thin plate mesh by collision of the exhaust fluid against the thin plate mesh and water contained in the exhaust fluid is separated from the gas; a water movement guide fluidically-connected to the inlet chamber and the outlet chamber for allowing the water gathered at the front side of the thin plate mesh in the internal space of the inlet chamber to flow therein and move to the outlet chamber; and a muffler pipe connected to the inlet chamber and the outlet chamber for allowing the gas gathered at the rear side of the thin plate mesh in the internal space of the inlet chamber to move to the outlet chamber.
