As much as I'd love to build a wind tunnel, openfoam sounds a lot easier, cheaper and of course more space friendly.

Build your models,attach them to the hood of a car on a ground board,tuft them,drive and video record what happens.The Rutan Brothers do this out at the Mojave Airport where their Scaled Composites is located.
With limited resources we've got to skin cats creatively.
