Wind Generator Noise
Wind Generator Noise
(OP)
Any ideas on firstly measuring noise generated by an industrial scale wind generator, from adjacent residential area, and second, are there devices that mask the perceived noise within those homes?

RE: Wind Generator Noise
Masking the noise of a wind turbine seems to me a difficult thing to do. I know of a recent paper in the Journal of Sound and Vibration on the psycoacoutics of wind turbine noise that might be a good place to start.
Let me know if you would like this information and I will dig it out.

If you want to correlate subjective impressions with objective metrics, then you need a Jury Evaluation package.
I can make recommendations for a source of the above if required.
