Comparative acoustic analysis of standard and innovative air diffusers with enhanced mixing capabilities by Joldos Titus Otniel, Danca Paul, Cernei Alexandru

“…The four 3D-printed air diffusers, created using FDM (Fused Deposition Modelling), SLS (Selective Laser Sintering), DLP (Digital Light Processing), and SLA (Stereolithography), were tested to evaluate a single configuration due to concerns that the surface quality resulting from 3D printing could increase the noise produced by these diffusers. Using a professional sound level meter, acoustic measurements were conducted at the V2 (23.9 m3/h) and V3 (33.6 m3/h) flow rate settings. …”
