AI Thread Summary
Active Noise Control (ANC) technology is being explored as a solution to reduce the loud noise produced by flow waterjets. The user is seeking information on commercially available ANC devices or guidance on building a custom solution. The discussion highlights the potential costs associated with purchasing existing noise-canceling devices. Bose noise cancellation headphones are mentioned as a reference point for effective noise reduction technology. The conversation emphasizes the need for innovative approaches to manage industrial noise levels.

Hi Everyone
I am new to this forum. I currently work for a company that uses a flow waterjet. It is an awesome machine but of course it can be super loud. I am in the process of researching a way of reducing or even canceling out the noise that it produces. I believe that Active Noise Control Technology is a good way of completing this task. I would like to know if anyone has heard of an existing device that is already out on the market that can be purchased which I imagine can be costly. Or if there is a way of building a device to accomplish this task.

Thanks

Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...
I have an engine that uses a dry sump oiling system. The oil collection pan has three AN fittings to use for scavenging. Two of the fittings are approximately on the same level, the third is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch higher than the other two. The system ran for years with no problem using a three stage pump (one pressure and two scavenge stages). The two scavenge stages were connected at times to any two of the three AN fittings on the tank. Recently I tried an upgrade to a four stage pump...
