@@frankgonzalez3822 You know what would be even more restrictive and power robbing? A straight piece of pipe. Yep, straight pipe exhausts with no mufflers have more back pressure.
We know a "muffler" reduces sound, his point is how inefficient it is at delivering the exhaust out of the vehicle, that reduces performance by a pretty large amount
I once built a sound proof room for recording music, and I setup up the cooling this way. I snaked the ducting around with some insulation so that it was quiet by the time it got inside the room. It’s certainly not the best for efficiency but it does work for sound isolation.
I think about this stuff all the time. "If I was making my own soundproof room..." or "How would I light a basement with sunlight...." or "How would design a underhouse garage for a 150year old Ponsonby (Auckland) villa." "How would I treat farm runoff to remove nutrients that feed bad river algae...". "How would I put a secret escape passage in my house" This is what guys think about, Ladies."
Just to be clear, internal combustion is not about explosions.... its about burning. The burning of the fuel, heats the air, which increases the pressure. You do have a rapid increase of pressure in the exhaust when the exhaust valve(s) open. But its not an explosion (gas flow should be sub-sonic...)
It needs to sit on my garage floor... And I will start my truck at 4am and wake your twinkie eating butt up. Good morning beautiful. Someone has to pay the taxes... and you lay in bed while visions of food stamps dance in your head.
It could be optimized for increased flow with least amounts of bends, but this one is about the cost of production and noise muffling, not performance oriented. Hard corners and design as this will change how the air moves, introduce more turbulence that improves thermal transfer witch is not desired and slows the air down creating positive pressure that does not allow engine to exhaust and vent the gasses rapidly as it could leaving performance decrease compared to better flowing exhaust.
The exhausts are optimized for the best performance for the type of car we even make, some that have actuators that block the exhaust gas oem exhausts balance performance with noise reduction if you want to make noise or adjust the gas flows there are mufflers that do that.
That right there is the longest lasting muffler. Glass pack ones either burn out or simply clog up turning them into straight pipes and rendering them useless for the task.
@@lookatmelookingatu if you live in the salt belt, nothing it survive. My old baffled muffler was 20years old before I had to replace it. The glass packed mufflers on my other car lasted 2year
Thanks to Percy Maxim, the "muffler was created" right. The same one who patent the "silencer" for gunshot suppression. So now you have to pay $200.°° for a tax stamp for one (USA) and wait for the approval. But if you drove a vehicle around without a muffler, you get a citation for it. 🤔🤔🤔 so taxed to have one then taxed if you don't have it.
In 1968 stock mufflers so restrictive the valve guides wore prematurely till we replaced the factory mufflers with smaller straight thru resonators (popper stoppers).

Your answer actually is incorrect for the most part. Many dynamometer tests have proved that on today's cars, the heat generated in the catalytic converter actually causes expansion of the exhaust gases that leads to greater velocity of gases that leads to a better scavenging of the exhaust. You actually lose power by taking the catalytic converter off of most NA cars

Congratulations! You figured out how a muffler works. They are designed to add some back pressure for the engine to run more efficiently. Just replace it already and send the customer on their way.
@Adam Flannigan there's a huge difference between a resonator and a muffler. A muffler absorbs sound energy, a resonator uses sound waves to cancel sound energy. Mufflers dampen sound while resonators cancel specific frequencies and are used to prevent droning or resonance at specific points. The only similarity is they're exhaust components. Their construction, function, and purpose are completely different.
@@EyebrowsMahoney as the former engineering intern who both worked on the line putting them together, and later improving efficiencies on the line, yeah, I know. Most average people will call that a muffler, but when we built it we called it a resonator.

My wife and I bought a brand new KIA cerato last year, first brand new car in our life. We had it put on the dyno and it produced way less than the manufacturer said it would so we changed a few things. After a new tune and new exaust it produces 26kw more than manufacturers said it would. Needless to say we are now very happy with our nw car.
There's 3 ways to quiet a car exhaust. You can do it throught restriction, sound wave reflection, and sound wave absorption. The muffler shown uses a small amount of sound wave reflection along with a lot of restriction.
resistance and back pressure are good if you drive on the street, its what makes your car feel fast and powerful. freeflow is for full throttle racing only.
Back in the day there was no aftermarket mufflers except glass packs so hot rodders in the know bought Corvair Turbo mufflers, a muffler that had even less back pressure was the Hemi Muffler but it cost considerably more than the Corvair Muffler. So the first aftermarket Hi Perf Mufflers made were copies of Corvair Turbo mufflers. Why didn't the "Expert" mention that?
Glass packs and cherry bombs and flow masters were all i recall available in the 90's trying to supe up my '95 5.0. there could have been more but three-chamber flowmasters were really popular.
What about all the water collection from condensation which, depending on the engine, may add another element to the restriction and/or suppression, provided there's no drain in the design of course.
What you have is basically a suppressor, that is exactly how a suppressor for a gun works by disrupting the gas flow through expansion in to baffles. The question is...where's the ATF? lol jokes aside, this is why you get so much performance out of a straight pipe.
Although I agree with the comments that it's built to suppress sound. It's also not supposed to rob you of 40 horsepower in the process. You can make an engine quieter without killing power. It just costs more to do it
He did say it was completely about sound suppression. It causes back pressure (restrictive) and that robs horsepower. It was not designed to take the engine efficiency into account.
I work for a company that makes OEM mufflers for Honda and Suzuki.. OEM mufflers are designed for noise suppression, and there is very little restricted airflow.
Funny how a muffler is designed to muffle sound! Who would have thought that the purpose of a muffler would be to muffle sound! Incredible! *mind blown !!!
The efficiency of the exhaust is relative to the efficiency of the intake. In theory, this exhaust could be more efficient than the intake from port to air filter, carburetor and intake manifold.
You're not wrong but it's supposed to be that way. The engineers who design engines design them to work better with that restriction than it would without it.
These people are surprised that a silencer / muffler is designed to silence / muffle the sounds of the exhaust. I bet it's going to blow their minds when they discover that water is wet, fire is hot, outside is big etc...
You know what would be even more restrictive and power robbing? A straight piece of pipe. Yep, straight pipe exhausts with no mufflers have more back pressure. Those chambers allow the hot high pressure pulses of gas to expand and relieve pressure. Then, some of the high pressure peaks slow down and fill in the low pressure areas between the exhaust pulses. If you do that enough, what comes out of the end of the tail pipe sounds less like a pop, pop, pop, and more like a whoosh of fast moving air.
Those mufflers are the biggest power killers on the planet. I reckon you will not only increase HP, but DEFINETLY driveability if you change to a free flowing, induction tuned muffler.
Three chamber muffler, w/c is very. Effective in. Sound suppression. Bec. Sound Is. Trap, delayed traveling inside the chambers that makes it less noise output.
No the comments are criticising what the man is saying yes a muffler is suppose to suppress noise but it is suppose to release the gases quickly also in a way so that the car gets good mileage this is back logging

A muffler has one job; to muffle the sound of thousands of explosions per minute as long as it does this what more does it need to do.
