Abstract

The characteristics of well-known designs of steam noise silencers are analyzed. New steam noise silencers designed at Moscow Power Engineering Institute (MEI) are described, and results of tests of them carried out at different facilities are presented. It is shown that the MEI silencer can be used in a wide range of dump steam parameters and be applied in power units for both subcritical and supercritical steam conditions.
