Acoustic Models of Transformer Installations

Noise problems caused by transformer installations in urban situations can be avoided, ameliorated, or corrected by several measures. The application of the least costly of these measures requires in-formation which cannot be obtained easily by analytical methods. Measurements of an acoustic model of the transformer in its environment aids in the evaluation of the particular noise problem and gives design data for sound-reducing barriers.
