Beginners toilet plunger - Click HERE for Original Thread
ntman
I am interested in design/analysis of an acoustical toilet plunger. I know much less than the average user on these boards (I was lost through parts of Kinsler & Frey Fundamental of Acoustics) and was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of information that could help me, preferably webpages. The box(trapway or bowl) is already designed and I don't need specific part numbers or an actual product just calculations on most effective frequency, max plunging power, etc. Even though the design doesn't need to be "practical" it shouldn't be completely make believe. So just some links or insight into selecting speakers/drivers around an arbitrary tube or box. I assume the only way it will work is submerged in the bowl itself, making it much rougher on the speaker.

And even more off-topic, what do you think is the most effective plunging motion: short and fast strokes, long and powerful, or a mix?

Certainly I could help you out, especially with the load, but I am affraid that the main obstacle is going to be the damping factor!


J-P.

when you walk into a store, you are screwed!
