Numerical Analysis of Sound in the Main Steam Stop Valve, and a Sound Suppression Method

The main steam stop valve (MSV) in thermal or nuclear power plants is liable to undergo excitation by sound having a specific frequency. The purposes of this article are to clarify the mechanism of the sound generation in the MSV using numerical analysis and to propose a suppression method for the s...
