DEVELOPMENT OF AN EXPERIMENTAL-THEORETICAL MODEL FOR THE NOISE FIELD OF THERMAL POWER PLANT EQUIPMENT

Abstract

This article studies problems of forecasting of noise pollution by thermal power plant equipment, industrial boilers, etc. An acoustic model of a residential area, exposed to power plant equipment noise nuisance, has been developed by means of AWM “Acoustics” software using obtained data. Practical application of the experimental-theoretical model for the noise field was demonstrated for efficiency estimation of the proposed engineering solution to noise reduction.
