Abstract

The present invention discloses a soundproof cabin of a turbine engine. The soundproof cabin is sleeved on the turbine engine. The soundproof cabin includes a cabin body, an induction noise reduction unit and a ventilation noise reduction unit, wherein the induction noise reduction unit and the ventilation noise reduction unit are disposed on the cabin body, the surrounding of which is filled with soundproof materials, the induction noise reduction unit is used to reduce the induction noise of the turbine engine, the ventilation noise reduction unit is used to reduce the noise of the ventilation system of the turbine engine. Beneficial effects: an induction noise reduction unit is disposed at an air inlet of the turbine engine to reduce the induction noise of the turbine engine; a ventilation noise reduction unit is disposed on the transmission direction of the turbine engine to reduce the ventilation and cooling noise of the turbine engine; the surrounding of the turbine engine is filled with soundproof materials to achieve the overall noise reduction around the turbine engine.

Claims (27)

1 . A turbine system comprising a turbine engine and a soundproof cabin for the turbine engine, wherein:

the soundproof cabin is sleeved on the turbine engine;

the soundproof cabin comprises a cabin body and an intake noise reduction unit;

the intake noise reduction unit is disposed on the cabin body;

the intake noise reduction unit is configured to reduce induction noise of the turbine engine;

the intake noise reduction unit is arranged on top of the cabin body and comprises an intake chamber, wherein a bottom surface of the intake chamber is lined with a soundproof material;

in a top view, the intake chamber covers an upper opening of the cabin body that is delimited by a frame of the cabin in at least one of a length direction or a width direction;

combustion air for the turbine engine is configured to enter the intake chamber from at least two side surfaces of the intake chamber in an intake flow direction perpendicular to axial transmission of the turbine engine through a plurality of intake filters installed on the two side surfaces of the intake chamber, the plurality of intake filters as a whole extending across an entirety or less than the entirety of the upper opening of the cabin body along an axial transmission direction of the turbine engine;

3 . The turbine system according to claim 1 , wherein the combustion air for the turbine engine is configured to enter the intake chamber through each of the two opposite side surfaces of the intake chamber in the direction perpendicular to the axial transmission of the turbine engine.

4 . The turbine system according to claim 1 , wherein in the top view, an area of the intake chamber is substantially the same as an area of the cabin body.

5 . The turbine system according to claim 1 , wherein there are no intake filters and intake silencers arranged at the exhaust end of the turbine engine.

6 . The turbine system according to claim 5 , wherein the soundproof cabin is provided with the soundproof material at the exhaust end of the turbine engine.

7 . The turbine system according to claim 1 , wherein the cabin body and the frame are rectangular and the cabin body comprises a baseplate and the frame, the baseplate is at a bottom of the rectangular frame, and the intake noise reduction unit is configured to cover the upper opening.

8 . The turbine system according to claim 7 , wherein the rectangular frame comprises four side plates, that are a first plate, a second plate, a third plate and a fourth plate respectively; the first plate and the third plate are arranged in parallel, and the second plate and the fourth plate are arranged in parallel.

9 . The turbine system according to claim 1 , wherein:

the soundproof cabin further comprises a ventilation noise reduction unit, the ventilation noise reduction unit is used to reduce ventilation noise of the turbine engine;

the ventilation noise reduction unit comprises an inlet air silencer, an inlet air fan and an outlet air silencer;

the inlet air silencer is connected to the inlet air fan;

the inlet air silencer, the inlet air fan and the outlet air silencer are disposed on the cabin body; and

the inlet air silencer and the outlet air silencer are arranged on opposite sides of the cabin body.

10 . The turbine system according to claim 9 , further comprising one or more sets of the ventilation noise reduction unit.
