Who first used Wind Tunnel testing on automobiles?
Malcolm Sayer (For Jaguar) - He was an aircraft designer who moved to Jaguar and designed the iconic E type Jaguar. This was the first vehicle to be tested in a wind tunnel. With respect to the previous contributor, development of another "iconic" automobile, the SAAB 92, was underway more than a decade before Jaguar began development of the E-type. The SAAB 92, developed by aircraft engineers & designers, was one of the first (if not the first) moderately-priced, volume-produced car whose shape was perfected through wind tunnel testing. Its coefficient of drag in the low 0.30s backs up that claim.
Did the wright bros invent anything eles but an airplane?
They did developmental work on the Wind Tunnel, and other aircraft related devices. a model of a Wright Bros Wind tunnel is on display- occasionally run-up at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia-( a museum open to the public) they also have a more modern Load cell type wind tunnel for testing model wing sections-this is about 6-l0 feet long as is the Wright prototype of l902. The Bros. made an improvised printing press as youngsters but this was probably not patented.

How many people can fit in a wind tunnel?
Wind tunnels are different sizes.
How does wind tunnel affect the environment?
It doesn't directly. A wind tunnel is used to detect the airflow over objects such as cars and planes to improve the streamlining.
