Noise suppression vertical curtain apparatus for heat exchanger units
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11946667B2) discloses a heat exchanger unit comprising a frame with multiple side regions and at least one cooler, a vertical axis, an internal volume, a floor, and a fan to move air through the internal volume. The unit includes a first set of panels mounted within the frame between the floor and the fan, with each panel consisting of a mesh panel and a panel frame with enclosed matting. Additionally, a vertical curtain is positioned between the first set of panels and the fan, with the curtain comprising a mesh panel directly mounted to the panels.
Furthermore, the patent details the arrangement of the panels and the vertical curtain, with specific angles and distances mentioned for optimal functionality. The vertical curtain extends upwards from the first set of panels towards the fan, with the panels arranged in a pyramidal configuration. The patent also specifies that the vertical curtain comprises four panels extending vertically upwards from the first set of panels, each with a vertical center axis parallel to the vertical axis of the heat exchanger unit. The panels are designed to direct airflow efficiently, with the curtain panels extending radially outwardly from the frame and being equidistantly spaced in a horizontal plane for effective heat exchange.
