ANNOTATION

The original MPEI developments on noise reduction from power equipment TPP and boiler houses. Examples of noise reduction from the most intense noise sources are given, namely from steam emissions, combined cycle plants, draft machines, hot water boilers, transformers and cooling towers, taking into account the requirements and specifics of their operation at energy facilities. The test results of silencers are given. The given data allow us to recommend MPEI mufflers for wide use at the country's energy facilities.

1. INTRODUCTION

Solutions of environmental issues in the operation of power equipment are a priority. Noise is one of important factors polluting environment, decrease negative impact which is obligated to the environment by the laws “On the Protection of Atmospheric Air” and “On the Protection of the Environment”, and sanitary standards SN 2.2.4 / 2.1.8.562-96 establish permissible noise levels at workplaces and residential areas.

The operation of power equipment in the normal mode is associated with noise emission, which exceeds sanitary standards not only on the territory of power facilities, but also on the territory of the surrounding area. This is especially important for energy facilities located in large cities near residential areas. The use of combined cycle plants (CCGT) and gas turbine plants (GTP), as well as equipment of higher technical parameters, is associated with an increase in sound pressure levels in the surrounding area.

Some power equipment has tonal components in its emission spectrum. The round-the-clock cycle of operation of power equipment causes a special danger of noise exposure for the population at night.

In accordance with sanitary standards sanitary protection zones (SPZ) of TPPs with an equivalent electric power of 600 MW and above, using coal and fuel oil as fuel, must have a sanitary protection zone of at least 1000 m, operating on gas and gas-oil fuel - at least 500 m. with a capacity of 200 Gcal and above, operating on coal and oil fuel, the SPZ is at least 500 m, and for those operating on gas and reserve oil fuel - at least 300 m.

Sanitary norms and rules establish the minimum dimensions of the sanitary zone, and the actual dimensions may be larger. Excess of permissible norms from constantly operating equipment of thermal power plants (TPP) can reach for working areas - 25-32 dB; for territories of residential areas - 20-25 dB at a distance of 500 m from a powerful thermal power plant (TPP) and 15-20 dB at a distance of 100 m from a large district thermal plant (RTS) or quarterly thermal power plant (KTS). Therefore, the problem of reducing the noise impact from energy facilities is relevant, and in the near future its importance will increase.

2. EXPERIENCE IN REDUCING NOISE FROM POWER EQUIPMENT

2.1. Main areas of work

The excess of sanitary standards in the surrounding area is formed, as a rule, by a group of sources, the development of noise reduction measures, which are given great attention both abroad and in our country. Works on noise suppression of power equipment of such companies as Industrial acoustic company (IAC), BB-Acustic, Gerb and others are known abroad, and in our country, the developments of YuzhVTI, NPO CKTI, ORGRES, VZPI (Open University), NIISF, VNIAM, etc. . .

Since 1982, the Moscow Power Engineering Institute (Technical University) has also been carrying out a set of works to solve this problem. Here for last years new effective mufflers for the most intense noise sources from:

steam emissions;

combined-cycle plants;

draft machines (smoke exhausters and draft fans);

hot water boilers;

transformers;

cooling towers and other sources.

Below are examples of noise reduction from power equipment developed by MPEI. The work on their implementation has a high social significance, which consists in reducing the noise impact to sanitary standards for a large number population and personnel of energy facilities.

2.2. Examples of noise reduction from power equipment

Discharges of steam from power boilers into the atmosphere is the most intense, albeit short-term, source of noise both for the territory of the enterprise and for the surrounding area.

Acoustic measurements show that at a distance of 1 - 15 m from the steam emission of a power boiler, sound levels exceed not only the permissible, but also the maximum permissible sound level (110 dBA) by 6 - 28 dBA.

Therefore, the development of new efficient steam silencers is an urgent task. A steam emission silencer (MPEI silencer) was developed.

The steam silencer is available in various modifications depending on the required emission noise reduction and steam characteristics.

Currently, MPEI steam silencers have been introduced at a number of power facilities: Saransk Thermal Power Plant No. 2 (CHP-2) of OAO Territorial Generating Company-6, OKG-180 boiler of OAO Novolipetsk Iron and Steel Works, TPP-9, TPP-11 of OAO " Mosenergo. Steam flow rates through silencers ranged from 154 t/h at Saransk CHPP-2 to 16 t/h at CHPP-7 of OAO Mosenergo.

MEI mufflers were installed on the exhaust pipelines after the CHP of boilers st. No. 1, 2 of CHPP-7 of the CHPP-12 branch of OAO Mosenergo. The efficiency of this noise suppressor, obtained from the measurement results, was 1.3 - 32.8 dB in the entire spectrum of normalized octave bands with geometric mean frequencies from 31.5 to 8000 Hz.

On the boilers Nos. 4, 5 at CHPP-9 of Mosenergo, several MEI mufflers were installed at the steam outlet after the main safety valves(GPK). The tests carried out here showed that the acoustic efficiency was 16.6 - 40.6 dB in the entire spectrum of normalized octave bands with geometric mean frequencies of 31.5 - 8000 Hz, and in terms of sound level - 38.3 dBA.

MPEI mufflers, in comparison with foreign and other domestic counterparts, have high specific characteristics, which allow achieving the maximum acoustic effect with a minimum muffler weight and maximum steam flow through the muffler.

MPEI steam silencers can be used to reduce the noise of discharges of superheated and wet steam, natural gas, etc. into the atmosphere. The experience of using MPEI steam silencers showed the necessary acoustic efficiency and reliability of silencers at various facilities.

When developing noise suppression measures for gas turbines, the main attention was paid to the development of silencers for gas paths.

According to the recommendations of the MPEI, the designs of silencers for gas paths of waste heat boilers of the following brands were made: KUV-69.8-150 manufactured by Dorogobuzhkotlomash OJSC for the Severny Settlement GTPP, P-132 manufactured by Podolsky Machine-Building Plant JSC (PMZ JSC) for Kirishskaya GRES, P-111 manufactured by JSC "PMZ" for CHPP-9 of JSC "Mosenergo", a waste heat boiler under the license of the company "Nooter / Eriksen" for the power unit CCGT-220 of Ufimskaya CHPP-5, KGT-45 / 4.0- 430-13 / 0.53-240 for the Novy Urengoy Gas Chemical Complex (GCC).

For the GTU-CHP "Severny Settlement" a set of works was carried out to reduce the noise of gas paths.

The Severny Settlement GTU-CHPP contains a double-hull CHP unit designed by OAO Dorogobuzhkotlomash, which is installed after two FT-8.3 gas turbines from Pratt & Whitney Power Systems. Evacuation of flue gases from the boiler is carried out through one chimney.

Conducted acoustic calculations showed that in order to comply with sanitary standards in a residential area at a distance of 300 m from the chimney mouth, it is necessary to reduce noise in the range from 7.8 dB to 27.3 dB at geometric mean frequencies of 63-8000 Hz.

The dissipative lamellar noise silencer developed by MPEI to reduce the exhaust noise of gas turbine units with CU is located in two metal ducts of noise attenuation of the CU with dimensions of 6000x6054x5638 mm above the convective packs in front of the confusers.

Kirishskaya GRES is currently implementing a CCGT-800 combined-cycle unit with a P-132 horizontal unit and a SGT5-400F gas turbine (Siemens).

The calculations performed showed that the required reduction in the noise level from the gas turbine exhaust tract is 12.6 dBA to ensure a sound level of 95 dBA at 1 m from the mouth of the chimney.

To reduce noise in the gas paths of the KU P-132 of the Kirishskaya GRES, a cylindrical muffler was developed, which is located in the chimney with an internal diameter of 8000 mm.

The muffler consists of four cylindrical elements placed evenly in the chimney, while the relative flow area of ​​the muffler is 60%.

The calculated efficiency of the silencer is 4.0-25.5 dB in the range of octave bands with geometric mean frequencies of 31.5 - 4000 Hz, which corresponds to an acoustic efficiency in terms of sound level of 20 dBA.

The use of silencers to reduce noise from smoke exhausters using the example of Mosenergo's CHPP-26 in horizontal sections is given in.

In 2009, to reduce the noise of the gas path behind the centrifugal smoke exhausters D-21.5x2 of the TGM-84 boiler st. No. 4 of CHPP-9, a plate noise silencer was installed on a straight vertical section of the boiler flue behind the smoke exhausters in front of the chimney entrance at the level of 23.63 m.

The lamellar silencer for the flue of the TGM CHP-9 boiler is a two-stage design.

Each stage of the muffler consists of five plates 200 mm thick and 2500 mm long, placed evenly in the flue with dimensions 3750x2150 mm. The distance between the plates is 550 mm, the distance between the outer plates and the flue wall is 275 mm. With this arrangement of plates, the relative flow area is 73.3%. The length of one silencer stage without fairings is 2500 mm, the distance between the stages of the silencer is 2000 mm, inside the plates there is a non-combustible, non-hygroscopic sound-absorbing material, which is protected from blowing by glass cloth and perforated metal sheet. Silencer has aerodynamic drag about 130 Pa. The weight of the silencer structure is about 2.7 tons. According to the test results, the acoustic efficiency of the silencer is 22-24 dB at geometric mean frequencies of 1000-8000 Hz.

An example of a comprehensive study of noise suppression measures is the MPEI's development to reduce noise from smoke exhausters at Mosenergo's HPP-1. Here, high demands were placed on the aerodynamic resistance of silencers, which had to be placed in the existing gas ducts of the station.

To reduce the noise of gas paths of boilers st. No. 6, 7 HPP-1 of the branch of JSC "Mosenergo" MPEI has developed a whole system of noise suppression. The noise suppression system consists of the following elements: a plate silencer, gas path turns lined with sound-absorbing material, a dividing sound-absorbing partition and a ramp. The presence of a separating sound-absorbing partition, a ramp and sound-absorbing lining of the turns of the boiler gas ducts, in addition to reducing noise levels, helps to reduce the aerodynamic resistance of the gas paths of power boilers st. No. 6, 7 as a result of eliminating the collision of flue gas flows at their junction, organizing smoother turns of flue gases in gas paths. Aerodynamic measurements showed that the total aerodynamic resistance of the gas paths of the boilers downstream of the smoke exhausters did not practically increase due to the installation of a noise suppression system. The total weight of the noise suppression system was about 2.23 tons.

The experience of reducing the noise level from the air intakes of the draft fans of boilers is given in. The article considers examples of reducing the noise of air intakes of boilers with mufflers designed by MPEI. Here are the mufflers for the air intake of the VDN-25x2K blower fan of the BKZ-420-140 NGM st. No. 10 CHPP-12 JSC "Mosenergo" and hot water boilers through underground mines (on the example of boilers

PTVM-120 RTS "South Butovo") and through the channels located in the wall of the boiler building (for example, boilers PTVM-30 RTS "Solntsevo"). The first two cases of air duct layout are quite typical for power and hot water boilers, and the feature of the third case is the absence of areas where a silencer can be installed and high air flow rates in the channels.

Measures were developed and implemented in 2009 to reduce noise with the help of sound-absorbing screens from four communication transformers of the TTs TN-63000/110 brand at CHPP-16 of OAO Mosenergo. Sound-absorbing screens are installed at a distance of 3 m from the transformers. The height of each sound-absorbing screen is 4.5 m, and the length varies from 8 to 11 m. The sound-absorbing screen consists of separate panels installed in special racks. Steel panels with sound-absorbing cladding are used as screen panels. The panel on the front side is closed with a corrugated metal sheet, and on the side of the transformers - with a perforated metal sheet with a perforation ratio of 25%. Inside the screen panels is a non-flammable, non-hygroscopic sound-absorbing material.

The test results showed that the sound pressure levels after installing the screen decreased at the control points to 10-12 dB.

At present, projects have been developed to reduce noise from cooling towers and transformers at CHPP-23 and from cooling towers at CHPP-16 of OAO Mosenergo using screens.

Active implementation of MPEI noise suppressors for hot water boilers continued. Over the past three years alone, silencers have been installed on boilers PTVM-50, PTVM-60, PTVM-100 and PTVM-120 at RTS Rublevo, Strogino, Kozhukhovo, Volkhonka-ZIL, Biryulyovo, Khimki -Khovrino, Krasny Stroitel, Chertanovo, Tushino-1, Tushino-2, Tushino-5, Novomoskovsk, Babushkinskaya-1, Babushkinskaya-2, Krasnaya Presnya ”, KTS-11, KTS-18, KTS-24 of Moscow, etc.

Tests of all installed silencers have shown high acoustic efficiency and reliability, which is confirmed by implementation certificates. More than 200 silencers are currently in operation.

The introduction of MPEI mufflers continues.

In 2009, an agreement was signed between MPEI and the Central Repair Plant (TsRMZ, Moscow) in the field of supply of integrated solutions to reduce noise impact from power equipment. This will make it possible to more widely implement MPEI developments at the country's energy facilities. CONCLUSION

The MPEI muffler complex designed to reduce noise from various power equipment has shown the required acoustic efficiency and takes into account the specifics of work at power facilities. Silencers have passed long-term operational approbation.

The considered experience of their application makes it possible to recommend MPEI mufflers for wide use at the country's energy facilities.

The number of appeals from citizens received by the Office of Rospotrebnadzor in the Tyumen region about the deterioration of living conditions due to exposure to excess noise levels is increasing every year.

In 2013, 362 appeals were received (in total for violations of peace and quiet, accommodation and noise), in 2014 - 416 appeals, in 2015 80 appeals have already been received.

According to the established practice, after the request of residents, the Department appoints measurements of noise and vibration levels in a residential building. If necessary, measurements are carried out in organizations located near apartments, where, for example, “noisy” equipment is used - a source of noise (restaurant, cafe, shop, etc.). If noise and vibration levels are found to exceed the permissible values, in accordance with SN 2.2.4/2.1.8.562-96 "Noise at workplaces, in residential, public buildings and on the territory of residential development", to the owners of noise sources - legal entities, individual entrepreneurs - the Department issues an order to eliminate the identified violations of sanitary legislation.

How can the noise from the equipment listed above be reduced so that there are no complaints from the residents of the house during its operation? Certainly, perfect option- to provide for the necessary measures at the design stage of a residential building, then the development of noise reduction measures is always possible, and their implementation during construction is ten times cheaper than in those houses that have already been built.

The situation is quite different if the building has already been built and there are noise sources in it that exceed the current standards. Then, most often, noisy units are replaced with less noisy ones and measures are taken to isolate the units and the communications leading to them. Next, we will look at specific sources of noise and vibration isolation measures for equipment.

NOISE FROM THE AIR CONDITIONER

The use of three-link vibration isolation, when the air conditioner is installed on the frame through a vibration isolator, and the frame - on a reinforced concrete slab through rubber gaskets (in this case, the reinforced concrete slab is installed on spring vibration isolators on the roof of the building), leads to a decrease in penetrating structural noise to levels permissible in residential premises.

To reduce noise, in addition to strengthening the noise and vibration isolation of the air duct walls and installing a silencer on the air duct of the ventilation unit (from the side of the premises), it is necessary to fasten the expansion chamber and air ducts to the ceiling through vibration isolating hangers or gaskets.

NOISE FROM THE BOILER ROOM ON THE ROOF

To protect against the noise of the boiler house located on the roof of the house, the foundation plate of the roof boiler house is installed on spring vibration isolators or a vibration isolation mat made of special material. The pumps and boiler units equipped in the boiler room are installed on vibration isolators and soft inserts are used.

The pumps in the boiler room must not be placed with the motor downwards! They must be mounted in such a way that the load from the pipelines is not transferred to the pump casing. In addition, the noise level is higher with a higher power pump or if several pumps are installed. To reduce noise, the foundation plate of the boiler room can also be placed on spring dampers or high-strength multilayer rubber and rubber-metal vibration isolators.

The current regulations do not allow the placement of a roof boiler directly on the ceiling of residential premises (the ceiling of a residential premises cannot serve as the base of the boiler room floor), as well as adjacent to residential premises. It is not allowed to design roof boiler houses on the buildings of preschool and school institutions, medical buildings of polyclinics and hospitals with round-the-clock stay of patients, on the sleeping buildings of sanatoriums and recreation facilities. When installing equipment on roofs and ceilings, it is desirable to place it in places farthest from the protected objects.


NOISE FROM INTERNET EQUIPMENT

According to the recommendations for the design of communication systems, informatization and dispatching of housing construction objects, it is recommended to install cellular antenna amplifiers in a metal cabinet with a locking device on technical floors, attics or stairwells of upper floors. If it is necessary to install house amplifiers on different floors multi-storey buildings they should be installed in metal cabinets in close proximity to the riser under the ceiling, usually at a height of at least 2 m from the bottom of the cabinet to the floor.

When installing amplifiers on technical floors and attics, in order to eliminate vibration transmission of a metal cabinet with a locking device, the latter must be installed on vibration isolators.

OUTPUT - VIBRATION ISOLATORS AND FLOATING FLOORS

For ventilation, refrigeration equipment on the upper, lower and intermediate technical floors of residential buildings, hotels, multifunctional complexes or in the vicinity of noise-rated rooms where people constantly stay, you can install the units on factory vibration isolators on a reinforced concrete slab. This slab is mounted on a vibration-isolated layer or springs on a "floating" floor (additional reinforced concrete slab on a vibration-isolation layer) in technical room. Please note that fans, outdoor capacitor blocks, which are now produced, are equipped with vibration isolators only at the request of the customer.

"Floating" floors without special vibration isolators can only be used with equipment that has an operating frequency of more than 45-50 Hz. This is usually small cars vibration isolation of which can be provided in other ways. The efficiency of floors on an elastic foundation at such low frequencies is low, therefore they are used exclusively in combination with other types of vibration isolators, which provides high vibration isolation at low frequencies (due to vibration isolators), as well as at medium and high frequencies (due to vibration isolators and a “floating” floor). ).

The floating floor screed must be carefully isolated from the walls and the supporting floor slab, since the formation of even small rigid bridges between them can significantly impair its vibration isolation properties. In places where the "floating" floor adjoins the walls, there must be a seam made of non-hardening materials that does not allow water to pass through.

NOISE FROM THE GARBAGE DUCT

To reduce noise, it is necessary to comply with the requirements of the norms and not design the trunk of the garbage chute adjacent to residential premises. The trunk of the garbage chute should not adjoin or be located in the walls enclosing residential or service premises with normalized noise levels.

The most common measures to reduce noise from garbage chutes are as follows:

  • in the premises for collecting garbage, a “floating” floor is provided;
  • with the consent of the residents of all apartments in the entrance, the garbage chute is welded (or liquidated) with the placement of wheelchair garbage chambers, concierge rooms, etc. in the room. (the positive point is that in addition to noise, odors disappear, the possibility of rats and insects, the likelihood of fires, dirt, etc. is eliminated);
  • the loading valve bucket is mounted with framed rubber or magnetic seals;
  • decorative heat and noise protective lining of the trunk of the garbage chute made of building materials separates from building structures buildings with soundproofing pads.

Today, many construction companies offer their services, various designs to increase the sound insulation of the walls and promise complete silence. It should be noted that in fact, no structures can remove structural noise transmitted through the floors, ceilings and walls when dumping municipal solid waste into the garbage chute.

NOISE FROM ELEVATORS

In SP 51.13330.2011 “Noise protection. Updated edition of SNiP 23-03-2003 "says that it is advisable to locate elevator shafts in stairwell between flights of stairs(clause 11.8). In the architectural and planning solution of a residential building, it should be provided that the built-in elevator shaft adjoins premises that do not require increased protection against noise and vibration (halls, corridors, kitchens, sanitary facilities). All elevator shafts, regardless of the planning solution, must be self-supporting and have an independent foundation.

Shafts should be separated from other building structures with an acoustic joint of 40-50 mm or vibration-isolating pads. Acoustic boards are recommended as the material of the elastic layer. mineral wool on a basalt or fiberglass basis and various foamed polymer roll materials.

To protect against structural noise of an elevator installation, its drive motor with a gearbox and a winch, usually mounted on one common frame, vibration isolating from the supporting surface. Modern elevator drive units are equipped with appropriate vibration isolators installed under metal frames, on which motors, gearboxes and winches are rigidly mounted, and therefore additional vibration isolation of the drive unit is usually not required. At the same time, it is additionally recommended to make a two-stage (two-link) vibration isolation system by installing support frame through vibration isolators onto a reinforced concrete slab, which is also separated from the floor by vibration isolators.

The operation of lift winches installed on two-stage vibration isolation systems showed that the noise levels from them do not exceed the standard values ​​in the nearest residential premises (through 1-2 walls). For practical purposes, care must be taken to ensure that vibration isolation is not disturbed by random rigid bridges between the metal frame and the supporting surface. The supply cables must have sufficiently long flexible loops. However, the operation of other elements of elevator installations (control panels, transformers, car and counterweight shoes, etc.) may be accompanied by noise above the normative values.

It is forbidden to design the floor of the elevator engine room as a continuation of the floor slab of the ceiling of the living room of the upper floor.

NOISE FROM TRANSFORMERSUBSTATIONSON THE GROUND FLOOR

To protect against noise transformer substations of residential and other premises with standardized noise levels, the following conditions must be observed:

  • premises of built-in transformer substations;
  • should not be adjacent to noise-protected rooms;
  • built-in transformer substations should
  • located in basements or on the first floors of buildings;
  • transformers must be installed on vibration isolators designed in an appropriate way;
  • electrical panels containing electromagnetic communication devices, and separately installed oil circuit breakers with electric drive must be mounted on rubber vibration isolators (air disconnectors do not require vibration isolation);
  • ventilation devices of the premises of built-in transformer substations must be equipped with noise suppressors.

To further reduce noise from the built-in transformer substation, it is advisable to process its ceilings and internal walls sound absorbing lining.

In built-in transformer substations, protection against electromagnetic radiation must be made (a grid of special material with grounding to reduce the level of radiation of the electrical component and a steel sheet for magnetic).

NOISE FROM ATTACHED BOILERS,BASEMENT PUMPS AND PIPES

Boiler room equipment (pumps and pipelines, ventilation units, air ducts, gas boilers, etc.) must be vibration-isolated using vibration foundations and soft inserts. Ventilation units are equipped with silencers.

In order to isolate the pumps located in the basements, elevator units in individual heating points (ITP), ventilation units, refrigeration chambers, the specified equipment is installed on vibration foundations. Pipelines and air ducts are vibroisolated from the structures of the house, since the predominant noise in the apartments located above may not be the base noise from the equipment in the basement, but the one that is transmitted to the building envelope through the vibration of pipelines and equipment foundations. It is forbidden to arrange built-in boiler rooms in residential buildings.

In piping systems connected to the pump, it is necessary to use flexible inserts - rubber-fabric sleeves or rubber-fabric sleeves reinforced with metal spirals, depending on the hydraulic pressure in the network, 700-900 mm long. If there are pipe sections between the pump and the flexible connector, the sections should be fixed to the walls and ceilings of the room on vibration-isolating supports, hangers or through shock-absorbing pads. Flexible connectors should be located as close as possible to the pumping unit, both on the discharge line and on the suction line.

To reduce noise and vibration levels in residential buildings from the operation of heat and water supply systems, it is necessary to isolate the distribution pipelines of all systems from the building structures of the building at the points of their passage through the supporting structures (input into and out of residential buildings). The gap between the pipeline and the foundation at the inlet and outlet must be at least 30 mm.

Sources of general vibration are rotating mechanisms - a smoke exhauster, a fan and pumps, as well as a working boiler. Vibration occurs both with poor centering or imbalance of rotating mechanisms, and in the case of proper balancing. In equipment, vibration occurs when the medium moves.

Vibration can cause disturbance of body functions. Under the influence of general vibration, changes occur in the central nervous system: dizziness, tinnitus, drowsiness, coordination of movements is disturbed. From the side of cardio-vascular system there is instability of blood pressure, hypertensive phenomena. The defeat of the skin-articular apparatus is localized in the legs and spine. At high intensity and in a certain frequency range - tissue rupture. The most dangerous for the human body are vibrations whose frequencies coincide with the frequencies of natural vibrations of the human body and its internal organs, since such vibrations can cause resonant phenomena in the body. The frequency range of such vibrations is from 4 to 400 Hz. The most dangerous frequency is 5¸9 Hz.

The vibration in the boiler room is constant.

The operator of the boiler room is subject to general vibration category 3, technological type A (at permanent workplaces industrial premises enterprises).

The main document on vibration is SN 2.2.4/2.1.8.566-96 "Industrial vibration, vibration in premises of residential and public buildings".

When normalizing vibrations, deviations of the vibration velocity and vibration acceleration from the maximum allowable values ​​along the axes of the orthogonal coordinate system are taken into account.

The main way to ensure vibration safety should be the creation and use of vibration-proof machines. When designing and using machines, buildings, objects, methods should be used that reduce vibration along the paths of its propagation from the excitation source; applied vibration isolation, vibration-damping bases (pneumatic dampers, springs).

To exclude vibrations and shocks from the operation of machines, the supporting structures of the building should not come into contact with the foundations of the machines.



Vibration-damping foundations are used in the boiler house on the foundations of the pumps.

The sources of noise in the boiler room are the boiler, operating pumps, smoke exhauster, fan, movement of water and steam in pipelines.

Intense noise during daily exposure reduces hearing acuity, leads to a change in blood pressure, weakens attention, reduces visual acuity, accelerates the process of fatigue, causes a change in the motor centers. Noise has a particularly adverse effect on the cardiovascular and nervous system. Noise with an intensity of more than 130 dB causes pain in the ears, and at 140 dB, irreversible hearing damage occurs.

A characteristic of constant noise at workplaces are sound pressure levels in octave bands with geometric mean frequencies of 31.5, 63, 125, 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 4000, 8000 Hz.

A characteristic of intermittent noise at workplaces is an integral criterion - the equivalent (in terms of energy) sound level.

The noise in the boiler room is constant broadband.

The main document on noise exposure SN 2.2.4/2.1.8.562-96 "Noise at workplaces, in the premises of residential, public buildings and in residential areas."

Permissible sound pressure levels in octave frequency bands, sound levels and equivalent sound levels at workplaces should be taken:

For broadband constant and non-constant (except for impulse) noise - according to Table. 13.4;

For tonal and impulse noise - by 5 dB less values indicated in Table. 14.4.

Table 14.4

Permissible sound pressure levels at workplaces and on the territory of enterprises

When developing technological processes, design, manufacture and operation of machines, industrial buildings and structures, as well as in the organization of the workplace, all necessary measures should be taken to reduce the noise affecting a person at workplaces to values ​​not exceeding the permissible values ​​in the following areas:

Development of noise-safe equipment;

The use of means and methods of collective protection in accordance with GOST 12.1.029-80 “SSBT. Means and methods of noise protection. Classification";

The use of funds personal protection in accordance with GOST 12.4.011-89 “Means of protection for workers. Basic requirements and classification”.

Zones with a sound level or an equivalent sound level above 80 dBA must be marked with safety signs in accordance with GOST R 12.4.026-2001 “SSBT. Signal colors and safety signs. Those working in these areas must be provided with personal protective equipment.

One of the methods to reduce noise is to reduce the noise in its path. It is implemented using casings, screens and soundproof partitions, which close the above equipment, using soundproofing of enclosing structures; sealing around the perimeter of the porches of windows, gates, doors; soundproofing of the intersections of enclosing structures with engineering communications; installation of soundproof observation cabins and remote control. Earmuffs and earmuffs are used as personal protective equipment.

To reduce noise from rotating mechanisms in the boiler room, casings are used. The operator room is soundproofed.

To provide hot water and heating of modern apartment buildings(MKD) projects sometimes include rooftop boilers. This solution is in some cases cost-effective. At the same time, often, when installing boilers on foundations, proper vibration isolation is not provided. As a result, residents of the upper floors are subject to constant noise exposure.

According to the sanitary standards in force in Russia, the sound pressure level in residential premises should not exceed 40 dBA - during the day and 30 dBA - at night (dBA - acoustic decibel, a unit of noise level, taking into account human perception of sound. - Note ed.).

Specialists from the Institute of Machine Acoustics at the Samara State Aerospace University (IAM at SSAU) measured the sound pressure level in the living quarters of an apartment located under the roof boiler house of a residential building. It turned out that the equipment of the rooftop boiler house was the source of the noise. Despite the fact that this apartment is separated from the roof boiler room by a technical floor, according to the results of measurements, an excess of daily sanitary standards was recorded, both in terms of the equivalent level and at an octave frequency of 63 Hz (Fig. 1).

The measurements were taken in the daytime. At night, the operating mode of the boiler room practically does not change, and the background noise level may be lower. Since it turned out that the “problem” is already present during the day, it was decided not to carry out measurements at night.

Picture 1 . The level of sound pressure in the apartment in comparison with sanitary standards.

Noise and vibration source localization

To more accurately determine the “problem” frequency, sound pressure levels were measured in the apartment, boiler room and on the technical floor in different operating modes of the equipment.

The most characteristic operating mode of the equipment, in which a tonal frequency appears in the low-frequency region, is the simultaneous operation of three boilers (Fig. 2). It is known that the frequency of working processes of boilers (burning inside) is quite low and falls in the range of 30-70 Hz.

Figure 2. Sound pressure level in different rooms when three boilers are operating simultaneously

From fig. 2 shows that the frequency of 50 Hz dominates in all measured spectra. Thus, boilers make the main contribution to the spectra of sound pressure levels in the premises under study.

The level of background noise in the apartment does not change much when the boiler equipment is turned on (except for the frequency of 50 Hz), so we can conclude that the sound insulation of the two floors that separate the boiler room from the living rooms is sufficient to reduce the level airborne noise produced by boiler equipment to sanitary standards. Therefore, one should look for other (not direct) ways of noise (vibration) propagation. It is likely that the high sound pressure level at 50 Hz is due to structure-borne noise.

In order to localize the source of structural noise in residential premises, as well as to identify vibration propagation paths, additional measurements of vibration acceleration were carried out in the boiler room, on the technical floor, as well as in the living room of the apartment on the top floor.

The measurements were carried out at various operating modes of the boiler equipment. On fig. Figure 3 shows the vibration acceleration spectra for the mode in which all three boilers operate.

Based on the results of the measurements, the following conclusions were made:

- in the apartment on the top floor under the boiler room, sanitary standards are not met;

- the main source of increased noise in residential premises is the working process of combustion in boilers. The prevailing harmonic in the noise and vibration spectra is the frequency of 50 Hz.

- the lack of proper vibration isolation of the boiler from the foundation leads to the transmission of structural noise to the floor and walls of the boiler room. Vibration spreads both through the boiler supports and through pipes with transmission from them to the walls, as well as the floor, i.e. in places of rigid connection.

- Measures should be developed to combat noise and vibration in the path of their propagation from the boiler.

Development of a vibration protection system

Based on a preliminary analysis of the mass distribution of the structure gas boiler and equipment, cable vibration isolators VMT-120 and VMT-60 with a nominal load per one vibration isolator (VI) of 120 and 60 kg, respectively, were selected for the project. The scheme of the vibration isolator is shown in fig. 4.

Figure 4 3D model of cable vibration isolator model range TDC.


Figure 5 Schemes for fixing vibration isolators: a) support; b) suspended; c) lateral.

Three variants of the scheme for fixing vibration isolators have been developed: support, suspension and side (Fig. 5).

Calculations have shown that the side scheme of the installation can be implemented using 33 VMT-120 vibration isolators (for each boiler), which is not economically feasible. In addition, very serious welding work is expected.

When implementing a suspended scheme, the entire structure becomes more complicated, since it is necessary to weld wide and rather long corners to the boiler frame, which will also be welded from several profiles (to provide the necessary mounting surface).

In addition, the technology of installing the boiler frame on these skids with VI is complicated (it is inconvenient to fix the VI, it is inconvenient to place and center the boiler, etc.). Another disadvantage of such a scheme is the free movement of the boiler in lateral directions (swinging in the transverse plane on the VI). The number of vibration isolators VMT-120 for this scheme is 14.

The frequency of the vibration protection system (VZS) is about 8.2 Hz.

The third, most promising and technologically simpler option is with a standard reference circuit. It will require 18 VMT-120 vibration isolators.

The calculated frequency of the VZS is 4.3 Hz. In addition, the design of the VIs themselves (part of the cable rings is located at an angle) and their competent placement along the perimeter (Fig. 6), makes it possible to perceive with such a scheme a lateral load, the value of which will be about 60 kgf for each VI, while the vertical load on each VI is about 160 kgf.


Figure 6 Placement of vibration isolators on the frame with a reference scheme.

Vibration protection system design

Based on the data of the conducted static tests and the dynamic calculation of the VI parameters, a vibration protection system for the boiler house of a residential building was developed (Fig. 7).

The object of vibration protection includes three boilers of the same design 1 installed on concrete foundations with metal ties; piping system 2 for the supply of cold and the removal of heated water, as well as the removal of combustion products; pipe system 3 for supplying gas to the burners of the boilers.

The created vibration protection system includes external vibration protection supports for boilers 4 designed to support pipelines 2 ; internal vibration protection belt of boilers 5 designed to isolate the vibration of boilers from the floor; external anti-vibration supports 6 for gas pipes 3.


Figure 7 General view of the boiler house with the vibration protection system installed.

The main design parameters of the vibration protection system:

1. The height from the floor to which it is necessary to raise the load-bearing frames of the boilers is 2 cm (installation tolerance minus 5 mm).

2. The number of vibration isolators per one boiler: 19 VMT-120 (18 in the inner belt bearing the weight of the boiler, and 1 on the external support for damping vibrations of the water pipeline), as well as 2 VMT-60 vibration isolators on external supports - for vibration protection of the gas pipeline.

3. The “support” type loading scheme works in compression, providing good vibration isolation. The natural frequency of the system is in the range of 5.1-7.9 Hz, which provides effective vibration protection in the region above 10 Hz.

4. The damping coefficient of the vibration protection system is 0.4-0.5, which provides an amplification at resonance of no more than 2.6 (oscillation amplitude no more than 1 mm with an input signal amplitude of 0.4 mm).

5. To adjust the horizontal position of the boilers on the sides of the boiler in the U-shaped profiles, there are nine seats for vibration isolators of the same type. Only five are nominally installed.

During installation, it is possible to place the vibration isolators in any order in any of the nine places provided to achieve the alignment of the center of mass of the boiler and the center of rigidity of the vibration protection system.

6. Advantages of the developed anti-vibration system: simplicity of design and installation, insignificant amount of boilers lifting above the floor, good damping characteristics of the system, possibility of adjustment.

The effect of using the developed vibration protection system

With the introduction of the developed vibration protection system, the sound pressure level in the living quarters of the apartments on the upper floors decreased to an acceptable level (Fig. 8) . The measurements were also made at night.

From the graph in Fig. 8 it can be seen that in the normalized frequency range and in terms of the equivalent sound level, sanitary standards in the living room are met.

The efficiency of the developed vibration protection system when measured in a residential area at a frequency of 50 Hz is 26.5 dB, and 15 dBA in terms of the equivalent sound level (Fig. 9).

Conclusion

The created vibration protection system makes it possible to protect a residential building equipped with a roof boiler from vibrations created by the operation of gas boilers, as well as to ensure normal vibration mode of operation for the gas equipment together with the piping system, increasing the service life and reducing the likelihood of accidents.

The main advantages of the developed vibration protection system are simplicity of design and installation, low cost in comparison with other types of vibration isolators, resistance to temperatures and pollution, a small amount of rise of the boilers above the floor, good damping characteristics of the system, and the ability to adjust.

The vibration protection system prevents the spread of structural noise from the equipment of the roof boiler through the building structure, thereby reducing the sound pressure level in residential premises to an acceptable level.

From the editor. On October 27, 2017, Rospotrebnadzor published information on its official website "On the impact of physical factors, including noise, on public health", in which he notes that in the structure of citizens' complaints about various physical factors, the largest share (over 60%) is made up of complaints about noise. The main of them are residents' complaints, including acoustic discomfort from ventilation systems and refrigeration equipment, noise and vibration during the operation of heating equipment.

The reasons for the increased noise level generated by these sources are the insufficiency of noise protection measures at the design stage, the installation of equipment with deviation from design solutions without assessing the generated noise and vibration levels, the unsatisfactory implementation of noise protection measures at the commissioning stage, the placement of equipment not provided for by the project, and also unsatisfactory control over the operation of equipment.

The Federal Service for Supervision of Consumer Rights Protection and Human Welfare draws the attention of citizens to the fact that under the adverse effects of physical factors, incl. noise, you should contact the territorial Office of Rospotrebnadzor for the subject of the Russian Federation.
