ABSTRACT:
A centrifugal fan is treated acoustically by the provision of tuned noise absorption cavities preferably including absorbent infill between an acoustically permeable scroll and casing of the fan. Alternatively, or in addition an acoustically absorbent panel structure is provided in spaced confronting relationship with the inlet port of the fan. The panel structure has an acoustically permeable facing spaced from a rigid backing and the space may be divided into noise absorption cavities and specifically Helmholtz type absorption cavities, the absorption bands of which are broadened by including acoustic infill. It is most advantageous to provide a multiplicity of Helmholtz absorption cavities tuned to respective different center frequencies of their acoustic absorption bands.
