Noise limitation in a factory
- Details
Noise limitation in a factory can and must be considered from two complementary angles: on the one hand (internally) safety at work and on the other hand (with regard to the outside) protection of the environment, starting with the neighbourhood.
In terms of safety at work, it is a question of protecting personnel (e.g. those working in supervision or maintenance) from excessive exposure to noise, which could (eventually: irreversibly) damage their hearing and also cause accidents (potentially...
Construction of an anechoic chamber for acoustic testing
- Details
Acoustic testing is an important phase in the development of many products, whether to determine their sound power level or their sound pressure level at specified locations (to meet certain limits in this area or to develop a particular sound e.g. telephone ringing, door closing noise, acoustic discretion of moving vehicles).
A specific measurement environment is then necessary for the associated acoustic Research and Development (R&D) work, with in general (as main objectives):
- a...

Construction of soundproof canopies for turbomachines
- Details
Turbomachinery has experienced a spectacular boom in recent decades, in relation to diversified applications involving an energy transfer between a rotating part (a rotor) and a fluid. This is particularly the case for combustion turbines, which in simple or combined cycle i.e. when a steam turbine and a large capacity industrial boiler - a Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG) - are involved are capable of producing very large quantities of electricity (their unit power is measured in hundreds...
