Reduction of fan noise by means of (circular) side-resonators; theory and experiment
نویسندگان
چکیده
One of the main noise sources in computers are the cooling fans. An important aspect of the noise they generate is tonal noise produced at the rotational frequency of the fan, the blade passing frequency (BPF), and its higher harmonics. Previous research pointed out that so-called side resonators can be applied successfully to reduce this tonal noise. A variety of side resonator geometries is available. A model describing viscothermal wave propagation in a circular side-resonator and the connected duct and the preliminary results of a parameter study of that model where presented previously. The experimental verification of the model is presented here.

Elliptical side resonators for broadband noise reduction: theory and experiments
Previous research of the authors pointed out that side-resonators can be applied to reduce fan noise. However, the noise reduction capabilities of most resonator geometries, e.g. tube resonators, cylindrical resonators (cylindrical air layers) and circular resonators (disc shaped air layers), are relatively narrow banded. This is disadvantageous in case resonators are used in combination with a...
متن کاملOptimizing Circular Side-Resonators to Reduce Computer Fan Noise
One of the main noise sources in computers are the cooling fans. Tonal noise at the rotational frequency of the fan, the blade passing frequency (BPF) and its higher harmonics are important in fan noise. So called 'side-resonators' integrated in the duct of an in-duct axial fan cause an impedance change in the duct and, having proper dimensions and correct position, act as an acoustic mirror re...
متن کاملCircular Mean Filtering For Textures Noise Reduction
In this paper, a special preprocessing operations (filter) is proposed to decrease the effects of noise of textures. This filter using average of circular neighbor points (Cmean) to reduce noise effect. Comparing this filter with other average filters such as square mean filter and square median filter indicates that it provides more noise reduction and increases the classification accuracy...
متن کاملA New Circuit Scheme for Wide Dynamic Circuits
In this paper, a new circuit scheme is proposed to reduce the power consumption of dynamic circuits. In the proposed circuit, an NMOS keeper transistor is used to maintain the voltage level in the output node against charge sharing, leakage current and noise sources. Using the proposed keeper scheme, the voltage swing on the dynamic node is lowered to reduce the power consumption of wide fan-in...
متن کاملApplication of acoustically tuned resonators for the improvement of sound insulation in aircraft
One of the aims of the EU project FACE (Friendly Aircraft Cabin Environment) is to reduce aircraft interior noise. For modern aircraft flying at cruise conditions, the turbulent boundary layer is the main source for cabin noise. Normally, the turbulent boundary layer causes the trim panels to vibrate, and hence to radiate sound into the aircraft cabin. The purpose of the present work is to redu...
