  2. Baffle (heat transfer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baffle_(heat_transfer)

    In this case the baffle helps increase the efficiency of the stove as more heat leaves the gas before it exits. The baffles prevent the rotational flow without affecting radial or longitudinal flow. The tank is provided with baffles which prevent swirling and vortex formation. Except in very large tanks, four(4) baffles are placed.

  3. Sound attenuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_attenuator

    A sound attenuator, or duct silencer, sound trap, or muffler, is a noise control acoustical treatment of Heating Ventilating and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) ductwork designed to reduce transmission of noise through the ductwork, either from equipment into occupied spaces in a building, or between occupied spaces.

  4. Slosh dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slosh_dynamics

    Most of these studies concentrate on effects of baffles on sloshing while the influence of cross-section is completely ignored. [ 26 ] The Bloodhound LSR 1,000 mph project car utilizes a liquid-fuelled rocket that requires a specially-baffled oxidizer tank to prevent directional instability, rocket thrust variations and even oxidizer tank damage.

  5. Propellant management device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propellant_management_device

    There are three types of control-type PMDs: sponge, trough, and trap. [6]: 4 Sponge PMDs are primarily used to provide the engine with propellant needed for ignition, providing the engine with propellant during a specific maneuver, and propellant control in microgravity environments. [2]: 3

  6. Sound baffle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_baffle

    Sound baffles are also used in speaker cabinets to absorb energy from the pressure created by the speakers, thus reducing cabinet resonance. In 1973, Pearl P. Randolph, a school bus driver in Virginia, won a new school bus in a national contest held by Wayne Corporation for the suggestion that sound baffles be installed in the ceiling of school ...

  7. Slosh baffle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slosh_baffle

    A slosh baffle is a device used to dampen the adverse effects of liquid slosh in a tank. Slosh baffles have been implemented in a variety of applications including tanker trucks , and liquid rockets , although any moving tank containing liquid may employ them.

  8. Baffle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baffle

    Baffle (liquid mixing), auxiliary devices employed in tank which suppress the effects of slosh dynamics; Baffle (heat transfer), a flow-directing or obstructing vane or panel used in some industrial process vessels (tanks) Baffle (medicine), a tunnel or wall surgically constructed within the heart or primary blood vessels to redirect blood flow

  9. Baffle spray scrubber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baffle_spray_scrubber

    A simple baffle scrubber system is shown in Figure 1. Liquid sprays capture pollutants and also remove collected particles from the baffles. Adding baffles slightly increases the pressure drop of the system. This type of technology is a part of the group of air pollution controls collectively referred to as wet scrubbers.
