In the ship-building industry, reciprocating air condensing compressors are usually applied in the HVAC system because of their good performance, efficiency and the convenience. However, the inertia force and pressure fluctuation of the compressor may generate unexpected excessive noise and vibration in the near by cabins. This paper presents a theoretical background and appropriate countermeasures on the reduction of structure-borne noise from the compressors.
