Abstract
In the issue of NATURE of Aug. 30, 1924 (p. 309), Aldis gave a formula for a resonator consisting of a closed cylindrical pipe of large diameter (length L) connected to an open cylindrical pipe of smaller diameter (length l) which he termed a ‘bottle-pipe’, namely, tan (2πl/λ).tan(2πL/λ) = Sα/SD where Sα and SD, are the sectional areas of the smaller and larger pipes respectively and λ is the wave-length of the natural frequency. The accuracy of the formula was questioned in a later number.
