Heat pump and recuperator nvh engineering

I have made some nvh improvements on heat pumps and on recuperators. I had first performance in front of camera in construction video blog.
Recently, I have been working with Polish brands IzziFast and reQnet.

Our goal is to reduce the sound level emitted from these devices.
Pumps are devices standing outside the building, recuperators inside.
Thanks to minor modifications to the duty points, we have reduced the noise level of the pumps by approximately 1.5 dB(A) without compromising the performance and efficiency.

The IzziFast brand runs its own Vlog.
I had the pleasure of being recorded during a conversation with the designer Tomek Górny during the first measurement sessions. My first performance in front of the camera was not bad for me.
The next ones will be much better.

Please watch the video and leave comments.

Intuitive creative process vs algorithms

🥱 Bored with “Lean” and “Six Sigma” – methods common in Automotive, I was looking for knowledge on how to approach problem solving innovatively. Methodological optimization and “nibbling” percentages is not always the right solution, when it’s begging to be “turned upside down”. My creative approach in problem solving was ‘somehow’ intuitive, based on ‘some’ experience, being ‘somehow’ more open to solutions and ‘somehow’ having flashes of ideas. Often this approach led me to come up with ‘some’ solution. However, I was also often left with an idea and the thought “what next?”.
