Abstract: In this paper we are discussing about the Wind Tunnel and its types. The Wind Tunnel Testing Machine is used in Aerodynamic research to study the effects of Air moving past to the solid objects. This paper we discuss the Design, Construction and Testing process open circuit low speed wind tunnel. The Design of wind tunnel is very important to proper working and accuracy of result. The construction process is depending on Design parameters and quality of material. In the testing we use the pitot tube, manometer and solid object (airfoil). Solid object is representing the original shape of the object. The testing chamber is main part of wind tunnel. We calculate the velocity of fluid and drag & lift forces. It is use to experimental analysis of object. Experiment conducted after build to find drag coefficient of a shape. An impression of fluid field flow around a shape is using air. 

Keywords: Open Circuit Wind Tunnel, Single Testing Section, Wind Tunnel Design, Industrial Design, airfoil analysis.
