  SUBSONIC WIND TUNNEL
To study of boundary layer around objects, pressure distribution around cylinder & aerofoil
and measurement of lift & drag force over aerofoil. The wind tunnel is a ducting designed to
produce controlled airflow conditions. It can be used for studies of air flow around objects.
