Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

My science fair project requires me to use a wind tunnel, and i don't have the time nor money to buy or build one, so i was thinking of using a professional level wind tunnel. Anyone know of any wind tunnels for use in the DFW area?

Hi williamzhang0306,
Please tell us know a little bit more about your experiment and if there are any specific size / capabilities that is required of the wind tunnel. I did a quick google search and it appears that the University of Texas, Dallas, does have a wind tunnel. Hopefully, that's pretty close to you?

Here's the URL:

As an alternative, there are free apps for your phones / computer where you may be able to do some of these wind tunnel simulation ahead of time. Here's an example of one: http://www.algorizk.com/windtunnel/overview/

Hope this helps!
Best of luck with your experiment!
