Gas turbine exhaust silencers, also known as gas turbine mufflers, are specialised components designed to reduce the noise produced by the discharge of hot gases from a gas turbine engine. Gas turbine exhaust silencers work by slowing down and dissipating the flow of hot gases as they exit the engine, which reduces the pressure and sound waves produced by the discharge.
In addition to reducing noise, gas turbine exhaust silencers also work to reduce the back pressure on the gas turbine, which can improve the operation of the engine and reduce the risk of damage or failure, while improving the efficiency and safety of industrial processes.
Controlling noise pollution from gas turbines is a priority for many government and environmental bodies, to ensure that the impact of industrial activities on the surrounding environment is minimised. The bespoke engineered designs that Acran Sound Control manufactures provide optimised attenuation for both inlet and exhaust applications that ensures that the facilities in question meet the relevant design criteria.
