A wind tunnel in the garage

~ enrico

In preparation for the Fête de la Science 2023 ( the french science vulgarization week that takes place each year in fall)  during the summer break I made in a small wind tunnel.  I had some fun in the garage playing the experimentalist, and I was amazed by the beauty of fluid dynamical patterns.
