Abstract
A heat apparatus (1), in particular for providing heating in a space, such as central heating, or for heating tap water in, for instance a boiler, comprising: a burner; provided with a guide channel for air supply and/or flue gas discharge; wherein in the guide channel a sound reflecting structure (10) is included extending transversely relative to the guide channel, and designed for damping a sound caused by the burner by means of sound reflection.
Claims7
A heat apparatus, in particular for providing heating in a space, such as central heating and/or for heating tap water, in, for instance, a boiler or tapping coil, comprising:
- a heat exchanger and a burner;
- provided with at least one guide channel for air supply and/or flue gas discharge;
- characterized in that
- in the at least one guide channel, a sound reflecting structure is included, extending at least partly transversely to the guide channel, and designed for damping a sound caused by the burner by means of sound reflection.
A sound reflecting structure for a heating apparatus, comprising at least two plate parts extending approximately parallel, spaced apart, in a first direction, which, viewed in a direction at right angles to the first direction, partly overlap.
A method for providing a heat installation with a sound damping apparatus, comprising:
- determining, in a guide channel of the heat installation, one or more positions with a local maximum sound intensity in an operative condition;
- and providing a sound reflecting structure on the determined one or several positions.
