Thing i did -

  • Researched about others wind tunnel project and their most occurred failures
  • Deigned smoke straighter in Hexagonal shape

Contraint in current design/plan

  • Currently im most confused in generating smoth laminar smoke, i searched about some ways like heating mineral oil or baby oil but i want this design to be beginner friendly and non-envasive.
  • Also if i go with the heating methods i would need to somehow cool the smoke to make it laminar since i heard hot air dont flow as smoothly as cold one.

this ss shows one of the problem faced by some fellow peer who also made a wind tunnel.
