Abstract:
A system configured to thermally regulate heat dissipation of a power plant system (e.g. steam turbine, gas turbine compressor, intercooler or other fluidic thermal source, etc.) and acoustically attenuate operation of an air cooled heat exchanger via sound reflection, sound absorption, sound diffraction, and/or active noise cancellation is disclosed. In one embodiment, a system includes: a set of inner barriers; a base barrier disposed beneath the set of inner barriers; a set of outer barriers disposed about the base barrier and the set of inner barriers, the set of outer barriers including a top surface located above a bottom surface of the set of inner barriers; a heat exchanger fluidly connected to a power generation system and disposed within the set of inner barriers; and a set of fans disposed within the set of inner barriers and configured to form a flow of air through the set of inner barriers.
