The paper is focused on the architecture and design of a wind tunnel for measurement of aerodynamical resistances. The quantities which influence the flow of fluids and the applied laws in this case are described on short. Taking into account the main criteria for wind tunnels classification (architecture, test chamber type, test chamber fluid speed) type of the tunnel will be chosen fallowed by the design and construction. Test chamber measurements are carried on by an anemometer. The physical results are compared with the modelling results obtained for ideal conditions with the aid of SolidWorks software.
