Summary

THE PUMP NOISE FROM THE PUMP-ROOM CAN OFTEN BE HEARD IN OTHER, DISTANT ROOMS. THE NOISE IS CAUSED BY THE PRESSURE RIPPLE TRANSMITTING THROUGH WATER IN THE PIPE. TO REDUCE THE PRESSURE RIPPLE, A HYDRAULIC SILENCER IS EFFECTIVE. HOWEVER, THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CONVENTIONAL SILENCERS VARIES ACCORDING TO THE LOCATION IN THE CIRCUIT. THE PAPER PROPOSES A NEW TYPE OF HYDRAULIC SILENCER THAT IS MADE OF DOUBLE AIR CHAMBERS AND CAN ALWAYS REDUCE A PRESSURE RIPPLE IF IT IS LOCATED AT ANY PART OF THE WATER CIRCUIT, RESULTING IN LESS NOISE.
