Abstract

Noise pollution is considered to be one of the major environment pollutants which affect human beings both physically and psychologically, as such, a noise-free environment is in great demand worldwide. Diesel engine generators are highly appreciated as power sources of electric equipment in factories, houses and business centers. Loud sounds from diesel generators are a major cause of noise pollution. This paper analyzes the noise source of diesel generators and mitigates this pollution by a modified absorbance silencer or muffler. For automotive engines, the principle source of noise is its intake, radiator, combustion, etc. In our society, all of the industries, the residential sector and business plants use generators. In this research, an absorbance silencer is modified for reduced noise of the generator set. It is constructed from a combination of baffle or perforated duct with sheet metal. This paper aims to study the sound characteristics of generator sets and also aims to reduce the sound by means of a well-modified muffle silencer. This paper focuses on design and tests silencers, particularly absorption silencers for engine exhausts.
