Noise created by gas through a valve
Noise created by gas through a valve
(OP)
I am working on a project which is down a concrete oil platform leg.
I want to vent off CO2 through a needle valve. The gas pressure is 8 bar and the valve is 9mm needle valve discharging to a 1 inch vent tube.
How much noise will be created?
Any help appreciated

RE: Noise created by gas through a valve
Insulation is good for several dB, and sticking sch80 pipe downstream of the valve also is good for several dB.
An insulated sch 80 pipe calculates to 87 dB.
It will be noisy where it discharges, too, so vent the pipe out a wall where people will not be.
