Sound Technologies engineers and fabricates steam vent silencers
to meet each clients individual project goals. Each steam vent
silencer (gas silencer) is designed to attenuate the noise generated
by the expansion of gas or steam from elevated pressures to atmospheric
pressure. Pressurized steam or gas leaving a pipe can result in
turbulent flow at high velocities. Untreated, this flow creates
a very objectionable and potentially unsafe noise level. A vent
silencer starts by diffusing the turbulent flow while shifting
the frequencies of the noise for effective downstream attenuation
by the concentric absorptive baffles. Venting pressurized gas
or steam to atmosphere is typical in various applications including:
- Heat Recovery Steam Generators/Boilers
- Oil & Gas Processing
- Chemical Processing
- Various General Industrial Processes
A steam vent silencer can be used where high pressure is being
released for system start-up, purging or blow down and are found
downstream of a safety relief or control valve. Their duty can
be intermittent or continuous and their physical size is directly
related to the flow conditions (diameter) and acoustic performance
required (length).
