Abstract This paper discusses details of design and fabrication of a simple open-loop modular mini wind tunnel for studying fluid microstructure interaction under low Reynolds number. A simple open-loop modular mini wind tunnel was designed and built after examining various design possibilities. The mini wind tunnel consists of five basic sections, namely wideangle diffuser, settling chamber, contraction section, test section and exit diffuser. The settling chamber consists of flow straighter made from array of circular tubes. Mini wind tunnel is powered by incorporating a fan which provides air flow with Re
