A volume-perforated pipe-volume suppressor is introduced to study its performance in attenuating pressure pulsations. On the basis of plane wave theory, the work developed a mathematical model to predict the distribution of pressure pulsations in a reciprocating compressor piping system with the proposed suppressor. The theoretical predictions were verified through experiments and three-dimensional fluid dynamics transient simulations, and good agreements were attained. Results proved that the pressure pulsations were attenuated significantly when the suppressor was used. In the frequency domain, the amplitude at the first pulsation frequency was decreased considerably. Both the perforation and cross-sectional areas of the perforated pipe could influence the attenuating capacity. Given a fixed ratio of perforation area to cross-sectional area, the best damping performance could be obtained by increasing the number of perforated holes and reducing the hole diameter. The geometric recommendations produced in this work are useful to control pulsations and vibrations under different functioning conditions.
