Abstract
In this paper, a novel approach is presented to reduce fan related noise in an acoustic duct. By installing magnetic bearings on the noise producing machinery, it is possible to collocate the anti-noise source with the disturbance noise source. This approach allows for global noise reduction throughout the duct system
