Cooling Tower Noise Control

Reduce the noise from industrial cooling towers by enclosing them in sound-absorbing, rust- and water-resistant sound walls. Sound Fighter Systems, a pioneer in designing high-performance noise attenuation walls for outdoor use, is the best source of cooling tower noise control solutions. 

With competitive price and timely delivery, Longzhuo sincerely hope to be your supplier and partner.

Why Are Cooler Towers Noisy? 

Cooling towers are crucial for regulating temperature in buildings and facilities and preventing heat from building indoors. However, like any mechanical equipment, they make a lot of noise. 

What causes the noise from cooling towers?

1. Water:

   The noise from cooling towers comes from the sloshing of the water inside the machine. 

2. Mechanical Components:

   Mechanical components like fans, belt drivers, gears, and motors also produce sound as they move and perform their respective functions. 

3. Location:

   The location of the cooling tower can contribute to the noise level. If the cooling tower is mounted on a concrete base or adjacent to a concrete wall, the vibrations from the motors will reverberate, further adding to the din. 

Unsurprisingly, the noise from one or more cooling towers can cause problems for the people working inside the facility. Without adequate cooling tower noise reduction, neighboring homes or establishments will complain.

Cooling Tower Sound Barrier Wall

Sound Fighter Systems solves noise problems from cooling towers via sound-absorptive barrier walls around the equipment. Alternatively, we can also build sound walls along the perimeter of a facility to prevent all noise it generates from traveling to the surrounding neighborhoods and establishments. 

But what is a sound wall? It is a wall or enclosure designed to reduce noise pollution by putting a physical barrier between the noise source  and the receivers. Sound barrier walls used to be made with concrete, wood, or PVC. The problem with these materials is that they reflect sound and amplify the noise in some cases. 

Sound Fighter Systems corrects this mistake by using the correct materials &#; sound-absorptive materials &#; for cooling tower sound attenuation enclosures.

Cooling Tower Noise Reduction Walls by Sound Fighter Systems

Sound attenuation enclosures and walls constructed by Sound Fighter Systems dramatically reduce mechanical noise by absorbing sound waves, breaking them down, and preventing them from passing through the barriers to the community beyond. Our expert team has developed a winning combination of materials that effectively absorb, dissolve, and block noise pollution.

Sound Fighter Systems sound barrier walls consist of the following:

• Modular, Synthetic Shell:

  Reinforced outer shell resistant to water, rust, and UV rays.

• Premium Absorptive Layer:

  Sound-absorbing insulation material that prevents sound waves from bouncing off the wall.

How Our Cooling Tower Sound Barrier Wall Works

Here&#;s how our patented cooling tower noise reduction walls reduce noise levels:

   Sound travels from the cooling towers to the noise reduction barrier.

2. The sound waves are absorbed by the absorptive material inside the wall.

3. The sound waves dissipate.

4. Intact sound waves are blocked by the acoustic soundboard.

Sound attenuation and significant noise reduction can be achieved through this simple but meticulously planned process. 

Cooling Tower Sound Attenuation Benefits

Here are more reasons to invest in sound attenuation enclosures:

• Flexible and Customizable:

  Our sound walls are custom-designed for any application and can accommodate all kinds of outdoor terrain, and we can build them according to your cooling towers&#; heights and dimensions.

• Modular:

  Our walls are easy to assemble and install.

• OSHA Compliance:

  Our walls reduce noise pollution and often allow our customers to operate within OSHA&#;s permissible exposure limits.

Cooling towers are not only widely used in petrochemical, chemical, power, metallurgy and other industrial enterprises, but also used in the water circulating systems of urban hotels, restaurants, shopping malls and office buildings. These facilities generate a lot of noise during operation and this will cause negative impact on the daily life of the surrounding residents. How to achieve effective cooling tower noise control?

First, we need to find out where the cooling tower noise mainly comes from.

• Fan air intake and exhaust noise;
• Water spraying noise;
• Fan reducer and motor noises;
• Cooling tower water pump, piping and valve noise;

Among these noises, fan air intake and exhaust noise and water spraying noise are the main noise. The fan radiates noise through air inlet and outlet and the tower body. The outlet noise is about 5-10 dB (A) higher than inlet noise. As the noise spectrum features low-frequency-based continuous spectrum, therefore, it is a low-frequency noise. When the circulating hot water falls off from the water spray device, it collides with the water in the water tank at the bottom of the tower and produces water spraying noise. This noise is a high-frequency noise. The size of the water spraying noise is related to the falling height and the water flow per unit time. The overall noise of the cooling tower is low-frequency-based continuous spectrum without prominent noise peak value. It generally falls between 31.5- Hz and the noise level is about 55-85 dB (A).

The cooling tower noise is low frequency and its direct harm is not so obvious as high frequency noise, however, people who living in this noise environment for a long period are prone to increase blood pressure, rapid heartbeat, irritability, neurasthenia and other symptoms, seriously affecting people's physical and mental health.

Then, we need take corresponding noise control measures.

• In terms of reducing cooling tower inlet and outlet noise, we may use noise eliminators, noise barriers and other noise reduction devices.
• When it comes to reduce water spraying noise, we may choose acoustic booths, noise barriers and other noise reduction equipment.
• In the case of reducing water collection tank waterfall noise, we may use muffler pad, waterfall noise reduction mats and other noise reduction devices.
• As for reducing cooling tower vibration, we may use shock absorbers, rubber flexible connection and other vibration reduction devices.

When governing cooling tower noise, we shall fully consider the causes and characteristics of cooling tower noise and take corresponding measures. Under the premise of ensuring the required technical data, we need to upgrade the cooling tower equipment and tackle the noise issues from the source.
