Abstract: There is a reason for a regulator station being a potential source of noise. It is because potential energy is changed into kinetic energy in the regulators, resulting in high velocities on the downstream side of the regulators. Velocity, however, is only one source of noise, another being mechanical vibration in the regulator body if it is designed so that this can take place. Remember that hard mechanical parts cannot be the same size if they are to work together, that is, one piece must slide inside of the other. Considering either source, we can say that each regulator design has a certain potential for making noise both aerodynamically and mechanically. It is becoming necessary to actually rate a regulator on its noise making capacity.
