Flow characteristics contraction of rectangular cross-section are investigated numerically and experimentally so as to gain an additional insight into the contraction design. They observed velocity field and turbulent intensity in the area of contraction and downstream of it. Individual numerical models sofware Ansys Fluent are evaluated and compared with measurements in a wind tunnel.
