Design of wind tunnel (fluid flow analysis)

A low speed wind tunnel was design and fabricate. The project covered the process of design and fabrication of the small wind tunnel. In completing this project, a computer aided drawing (CAD) called Solid Work is use to design the wind tunnel. Experiment conducted after build the wind tunnel to fin...
