Silencers & acoustic louvres

← All groups

Acoustic Basic — acoustics for HVAC/MEP engineers: silencers, vibration, resonance and a generator-room case study

Available

Five self-study lessons: decibels, octave bands, noise criteria and the source-to-receiver chain; silencer types and selection; silencer manufacturing and materials (thick splitters, thin panels, micro-perforated, high-temperature, fire-rated); transmission through the envelope, structure-borne vibration and resonance; a real case of a three-generator room on level 2 — silencers built differently from the design, recalculating the A–E chain, CFD airflow, heat and installation. Case-study figures are calculated, not yet tested.

Self-study videos

Video language:
Lesson 1 · Acoustic basics for HVAC engineers · 7:33Sound, wavelength and the eight octave bands; adding decibels; sound power and sound pressure; indoor and outdoor noise criteria; the source-to-receiver chain with an exhaust fan example; six common mistakes in design documents.
Video language:
Lesson 2 · Silencer types and selection · 6:37The three inputs you need before selecting; the four numbers that compare silencers (insertion loss by band, pressure drop, self-noise, size); six silencer families in HVAC; sizing and length for the target, with a 20,000 m³/h exhaust fan example.
Video language:
Lesson 3 · Silencer manufacturing and materials · 11:47Silencer construction and the physics of absorption; thick splitters and what works at 63–250 Hz; thin panels and membrane absorbers; micro-perforated designs for clean and wet areas; materials, facings and casings; high-temperature and fire-rated silencers; production, aerodynamic noses and quality checks; acoustic louvres; writing the specification.
Video language:
Lesson 4 · Envelope, structure-borne vibration and resonance · 9:39Transmission through the envelope and flanking paths (ISO 12354), the mass law; structure-borne vibration: forcing frequencies, resonance, transmissibility, choosing isolator deflection; canvas flexible connectors, vibration bridges, start-up; structural resonance and room modes; GenRoom calculation tools.
Video language:
Lesson 5 · Case study: when the silencer is built differently · 10:30A three-generator room on level 2 of a grade A office tower: silencers designed with 200 mm splitters were built with 100 mm. GenRoom recalculates the A–E chain from source to the 1 m point, selects an L500 acoustic louvre, and checks CFD airflow, radiator fan pressure, heat, blade-by-blade installation on rails and the rail structure. Project anonymized; figures are calculated, not yet tested.
