We design and build wind tunnels to measure the performance of all objects through an air flow, either actively (fans, thermal or other machines) or passively ( filters, recuperators or other). Our technical departments are able to deal with the development of tailor-made projects,elaborated on the basis of the Customer's needs, adopting the most appropriate technological solutions on a case-by-case basis.

2 DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A LOW SPEED WIND TUNNEL By Jonathan Jaramillo Submitted to the Department of Physics on May 13 th, 2017 in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Bachelor of Science Abstract Despite advances in computational aerodynamics, wind tunnels are and will continue to be a cornerstone in the design process for a wide range of vehicles.
The design and construction of a wind tunnel with a vertical working section, which was used successfully for the study of untethered firebrands at their terminal velocity, is described. Two unique features in this tunnel design set it aside from previous vertical wind tunnels: the vertical working section has a divergent taper that allows a firebrand to find its terminal velocity within a

This tunnel can be built for less than $100 and uses a computer fan motor to move air past small models. Complete plans for the tunnel can be downloaded for free from the web page. "Little Smokey
The design of a wind tunnel is a lengthy process and, as shown above, it requires extensive knowledge and experience in both theory and construction. A novice might attempt to construct a tunnel, but considering the time spent, it might not be justified economically. Wind tunnel design also depends on economic and space constraints. Larger
