  2. Loudspeaker enclosure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudspeaker_enclosure

    A genuine infinite-baffle loudspeaker has an infinite volume (a half-space) on each side of the baffle and has no baffle step. However, the term infinite-baffle loudspeaker can fairly be applied to any loudspeaker that behaves (or closely approximates) in all respects as if the drive unit is mounted in a genuine infinite baffle.

  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. Noise control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_control

    Many of these techniques rely upon material science applications of constructing sound baffles or using sound-absorbing liners for interior spaces. Industrial noise control is a subset of interior architectural control of noise, with emphasis on specific methods of sound isolation from industrial machinery and for protection of workers at their ...

  5. Baffle (heat transfer) - Wikipedia

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

    As mentioned, baffles deal with the concern of support and fluid direction in heat exchangers. In this way it is vital that they are spaced correctly at installation. The minimum baffle spacing is the greater of 50.8 mm or one fifth of the inner shell diameter. The maximum baffle spacing is dependent on material and size of tubes.

    A smoothbore pipe with baffles inside of the pipe. Usually a stream straightener is used on a master stream device between the outlet housing of the device and a smooth bore tip to reduce the agitation of water traveling to the tip so as to produce a better stream. Suction hose

  7. Optical baffle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_baffle

    An optical baffle is an opto-mechanical construction designed to block light from a source shining into the front of an optical system and reaching the image as unwanted light. [ 1 ] Principles

  8. Building insulation material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation_material

    Compressing the material reduces its effectiveness. Cutting it to accommodate electrical boxes and other obstructions allows air a free path to cross through the wall cavity. One can install batts in two layers across an unfinished attic floor, perpendicular to each other, for increased effectiveness at preventing heat bridging. Blankets can ...

  9. Kitchen hood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitchen_hood

    Baffle filters are made of steel/aluminium frames with curved panels. The curves catch on grease, oil and other particulates. They are durable and easy to clean and are used in both ducted and ductless chimneys. They must be cleaned regularly. Charcoal filters are made of fine powdered activated charcoal. They are primarily used for ductless ...
