The historic R. J. Mitchell wind tunnel is an important tool used by engineers to help design and improve anything impacted by the wind, whether an aeroplane, wind turbine or Olympic athlete!
Visit the wind tunnel learn how we use it to help shape the world around us and understand the importance of aerodynamics.
Along with the big wind tunnel we will also have our little Scale Engineering tunnel available where visitors can build a Lego model and test it to measure the lift and drag generated.
