Abstract
The design, manufacture and installation of a practical and cost-effective anechoic chamber for aero-acoustic measurements are presented in this paper. The work was undertaken with a view to measure the aerodynamically generated noise of wind turbines under laboratory conditions. The chamber was designed to be used in conjunction with a wind tunnel. Tests were carried out to compare the reduction of noise levels from external sources with and without the chamber. The results obtained suggest a clear reduction of noise levels with different wind speeds, and as expected, resulted with higher reductions at higher wind tunnel speeds.
