INTRODUCTION
TWO CATEGORIES OF NOISE
LEVELS OF NOISE
PITCH
Though the noise cannot be totally eliminated but can be reduced by adopting
certain measures. The basic principals of noise control are as follows.
1. Noise Control at Source
• machinery should be equipped by effective silencers, properly installed on the
designed foundation and well maintained.
• Use of shock absorbing material, efficient flow technique, reducing fluid jet
velocities, restricting sound producing area, reducing peak accelerations are
some of the techniques of noise control at source.
• Use of guards, covers, enclosures and muffler systems, sealing all openings
• use of proper cutting speeds and feed rate are other ways of noise reduction.
The proper maintenance of machines by lubrication and timely replacement
of bearings is the main thing required for the control of noise at source.
2. Noise Control along the Path
• Use of solid high barriers to interrupt the direct
transmission.
• Increasing distance between the source and the receiver.
• By planting trees
