Abstract

The present invention relates to a sound-absorbing channel element for a flowing medium. The channel element (1) has an inlet (2) connected to a sound source and an outlet (3), and is defined by outer walls (4) extending in the flow direction. In order to achieve simplified construction of sound-absorbers in a gas outlet channel, as well as greater efficiency and lower resistance, the channel element (1) in accordance with the invention is provided with partition walls (5, 6) running in the direction of flow. These divide the channel element (1) into several part-channels (7). Each part-channel (7) is provided with sound-absorbing members (8). The channels are of different lengths. The invention also relates to a set of channel element modules for modularised construction of such a channel element, and also a gas outlet channel where equivalent principles are applied. Finally, the invention relates to a method of manufacturing such a channel element, wherein this is composed of a set of channel element modules, and a method of suppressing the sound in a gas outlet channel wherein the channels are divided into part-channels in corresponding manner.

Claims

A sound-absorbing channel element having large cross-sectional dimensions (1 ; 101 , 102; 201) for a flowing medium, and having an inlet (2) connected to a sound source (15) and an outlet (3), which channel element is defined by outer walls (4) extending in the flow direction, characterized in that the channel element is divided into part-channels (7) running in the direction of flow, each part- channel being provided with sound-absorbing means (8), and at least some of the part-channels (7) being of different lengths and comprising sound-absorbing means tuned for different frequencies.
2. A channel element as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that it is composed of a plurality of channel element modules, each forming one or more part- channels or part of a part-channel.
3. A channel element as claimed in either of claims 1 or 2, characterized in that the part-channels (7) are constructed from a plurality of pipes (56') running in the direction of flow.
4. A channel element as claimed in either of claims 1 or 2, characterized in that said part channels are constructed from at least one partition wall (5) running in a first direction transverse to the direction of flow.
5. A channel element as claimed in either of claims 1 or 2, characterized in that said part channels are constructed from at least one partition wall (5) running in a first transverse direction and at least one second partition wall (6) running in a second transverse direction to the direction of flow.
6. A channel element as claimed in any one of claims 1-5, characterized in that the part channels (7, 7') are constructed from partition walls (56, 5') that are rigidly joined to the outer walls (4) of the channel element.
7. A channel element as claimed in any one of claims 1-6, characterized in that said inlet (2) is located in a plane forming a first angle to the direction of flow and in that said outlet is located in a plane forming a second angle (3) to the direction of flow, which first and second angles are different. 13
8. A channel element as claimed in claim 7, characterized in that one of said angles is a right angle and the other is 67.5°.

13. A channel element as claimed in claim 12, characterized in that the opening member (13) has an area in the same order of magnitude as the through- flow area of the passage (9).
14. A set of channel elements in which each channel element consists of a channel element as claimed in any one of claims 1-13, characterized in that each channel element has an inlet and/or an outlet that is complementary with an outlet and/or inlet, respectively, of another channel element in the set.
