Noise reduction at Air vent
Noise reduction at Air vent
(OP)
Hi every one
i got a project of reducing noise at air vent
air is required by process and it is provided by two air compressors the excess quantity is vented to atmosphere
the venting of air produces much noise almost 120db. so we have to reduce that noise.
what you suggest??

Vented compressed air is literally venting the money you've used to compress the air in the first place. Work out how much that is so you can use it in some arguments about what to do.
If it's a sizable amount, or even not - why not use the air to do something useful like generate electricity?? This would reduce the air velocity and take out the energy which is being converted to noise.
Remember - More details = better answers
Also: If you get a response it's polite to respond to it.

air flow require is varying from 50000NMC/hr to 55000NMC/hr and compressor discharge is almost60000NMC/hr

As suggested, it is usually possible to set up process controls to adjust machine speed to match flow demand with supply by using discharge pressure control, wihtout having to vent any excess.
During startup and shutdown, yes, it is possible that some air will be vented.
