Removal of an anechoic chamber

Details

Published: 27 June 2017

Many sectors of activity (in particular in relation to advanced technologies) require test stations for Research & Development (R&D) in acoustics that must adapt to space constraints, in particular for companies which are evolving a lot, for which re-arrangement projects linked to variations in capacity or organization are not unusual.

Such means of testing must then be capable of being disassembled, transported and re-installed, in some cases: on the same industrial site, but in...

Noise reduction of an industrial chimney (stack)

Details

Published: 19 May 2017

An industrial chimney (aka stack) can constitute a source of very powerful noise potentially causing noise pollution for the environment, near or far, a fortiori if it is very high.

In the case of hot gases, the exhaust of gas turbines or combustion engines is often the source of a noise which, if not sufficiently attenuated by the components of the network, is present at the outlet of the chimney (stack) in an undesirable manner.

Hot or cold, gas flows are also often vented to the atmosphere...

Whether it is a pleasure meal in a friendly or family context, or whether it is to take a break and regain strength e.g. in a working context, a moment spent in a restaurant does not deliver all its promises if the acoustic environment is not up to par.

Indeed, if such a place has not been the subject of sufficient precautions with regard to the problems of soundproofing, a sound overbid occurs there often, which is due to the fact that each raises the voice to try to be heard, what...
