Noise control technology for generator sets in enclosures

Currently, noise pollution is an environmental problem all over the world. The health and life of human beings are affected by loud noise from high power generator sets. To reduce such noise, a sound-attenuated enclosure is widely used for its high performance and convenient usage. By installing equipment in an enclosure, noise is controlled and prevented from radiating. In this paper, noise control techniques for enclosures are presented. Enclosure development trends are predicted.
