A subsonic wind tunnel is a wind tunnel that cannot take testing to Mach 1 (the speed of sound). There are a wide variety of wind tunnels, and they come in a broad range of sizes, too. They span models from ones that test motorcycle helmets to ones that test a whole small aircraft or aircraft model. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on the wind tunnel, and you'll find that link below.
What else can I help you with?
How do wind tunnels work?
It work's by putting wind in-to it.
Why do engineers test airplane models in wind tunnels?
Because they can find a lot of information about it's flight characteristics in wind tunnels.
What is mandatory in bridge designs?
wind tunnels
How might a scientist use a model to test a new airplane design?
Engineers put very accurate models of new airplanes in wind tunnels to see how aerodynamic they are.
What are three kinds of tunnels used in subsurface mining?
they are vertical tunnels, angle tunnels, and horizontal tunnels. THE END
Why do aircraft designers use wind tunnels?
since the aircraft designer cannot make a aircraft and test... so, they will make a prototype and test in the wind tunnel.. The flow of aircraft in atmosphere will be same as flow seperation take place in wind tunnel

Where are heavy wind tunnels in the US?
NASA has a wind tunnel available in Texas, others do exist in the USA but have undisclosed locations as heavy wind tunnels are often used to test aircraft.

wind tunnels
How many people can fit in a wind tunnel?
Wind tunnels are different sizes.
What has the author Zhou Changhai written?
Zhou Changhai has written: 'Integral method of wall interference correction in low-speed wind tunnels' -- subject(s): Wind tunnels
What is the purpose of a wind tunnel?
A wind tunnel is used to simulate air flow over a model of an airplane or a wing section so it can be studied. The model can be instrumented to measure the lift and drag and other parameters for study. The wind tunnel can produce air flow at the desired speed and condition. Engineers may use a wind tunnel to study and design a wing shape. The Wright Brothers developed the first wind tunnel to design the shape of the wing for their airplane. Wind tunnels can be used to study interference between parts of the aircraft or between an airplane and a bomb as it drops away. There are different types of wind tunnels: low speed wind tunnels, supersonic wind tunnels and hyper-sonic wind tunnels.
Are there any vertical wind tunnels in Houston tx?
Not that I can find!
What is the use of wind tunnels in designing of cars?
I have in the tv that the wind tunnel is the proving ground for the vehicle's form and allows engineers to obtain considerable amounts of advanced information within a controlled environment.
What do designers work to reduce air resistance?
Air or wind resistance is an important consideration in design, especially when it comes to multi-storey structures as buildings tend to be more vulnerable to wind forces as it goes upwards. Wind resistance in highrise buildings is important in order to secure the building components and its users from strong winds.
How do wind tunnels measure the efficiency and stability of a design?
