Abstract

Nowadays, the hydraulic power unit (HPU) has been increased its working pressure and enlarged its capacity in order to improve the performance of the hydraulic system, but it produces noise leveled around 110dB(A) during operation. Recently, due to the reinforcement of industrial safety regulations and the requirement of improving work environment, a separated HPU room is installed at outside or underground of the building as to reduce the noise from HPU, but there are also problems of power loss owing its fluid friction of pipe system and of deficient accessibility during its failure accident. In this study, experiment is performed to improve the noise characteristics with installing a soundproof chamber to minimize the power loss and exclude effectively the high leveled noise, which is generated during the power conversion of HPU.

유압시스템의 출력밀도를 높이기 위해 고압화, 대형화 되고 있으나, 유압동력 발생장치(HPU)를 구동할 때 110 dB(A) 정도의 높은 소음이 발생한다. 최근 산업안전규제 강화와 작업장 환경개선 요구 등으로 인하여 HPU의 소음저감을 위한 방안으로 실외나, 지하에 별도의 설치공간을 만들어 HPU를 이용하는 경우가 있었으나, 배관에서의 작동유 유동마찰로 인한 동력손실과 고장 났을 때 신속하게 대응하는데 문제가 있었다. 본 연구에서는 HPU의 동력변환 과정에서 필수적으로 발생되는 소음을 효과적으로 차폐시키면서 동력손실을 저감시키는 방음챔버(chamber)를 채용하여 소음특성을 개선하는 연구를 실험적으로 하였다.
