Noise generation and suppression in twin-screw compressors

Screw compressors generate a substantial level of noise during operation. The first stage in reducing it is to identify and minimize its causes. To this end, sources of noise within these machines have been reviewed, the most significant of which are identified, and methods of minimizing their effec...

Description
Summary:Screw compressors generate a substantial level of noise during operation. The first stage in reducing it is to identify and minimize its causes. To this end, sources of noise within these machines have been reviewed, the most significant of which are identified, and methods of minimizing their effect are evaluated.
