Several damping criteria are recommended in the literature to predict whether acoustical resonances in tube arrays will or will not materialize. This paper evaluates the ability of these criteria to differentiate between the resonant and the non-resonant cases which are reported upon in Part I and i

β¦ Synopsis
A study ofacoustic energy dissipation in a resonant tube fitted at or~e end with a hollow rod is presented. The inside diameter of the rod is a small fraction of the tube's diameter, so that the nature of the acoustic field in the tube is, in general, not significantly affected by the opening. It is shown, however, that under certain conditions the fields in the rod and in the tube can be resonantly coupled, and that in those conditions the damping in the tube is substantially increased owing to energy transfer from the tube to the hollow rod, where viscosity and heat conduction act more effectively. The analytical results are compared to experimental data also reported here and found to be in close agreement.

The theory for studying the damping of acoustic waves in metals is evolved in the low temperature region and zero magnetic field starting from primary physical constants and assuming basic potentials. The theory is tested for some highly conducting and transitional metals, viz. aluminium, nickel, co
