This would be likely to suffer from excitation of cross modes. By splitting into separate channels, excitation of cross modes can be reduced. Ideally there should be flat planar wavefronts at the throat of the horn section. Therefore it is necessary for the inner channels to be more curved based on an &#8220;equal path length&#8221; criterion.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-443\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/phasplhorn-01-500x500.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Phase splitters and horn<\/p>\n<p>Utilising the two planes of symmetry, a quarter model was analysed with a baffled condition at the mouth of the horn.
