Wind Tunnel Fans Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Type (Jet Fans, Axial Flow Fans) by Application (Low-speed, High-speed) and Segment Forecasts, 2023-2031

Market Overview

According to Reed Intelligence the Global Wind Tunnel Fans Market Size will approximately grow at a CAGR of 4.7% during the forecast period.

To study the interaction between an object and moving air, an object is held motionless inside a wind tunnel and air is blown about it. They are used to test the aerodynamic properties of vehicles, buildings, rockets, and aeroplanes. Different wind tunnels can contain air that moves at speeds ranging from a mild breeze to hypersonic velocities and range in size from less than a foot across to over 100 feet (30 m).

An individual aircraft part, a tiny model of the vehicle, a full-sized vehicle, or an aerodynamic test object like a cylinder or airfoil can all be used as the object. The largest tunnels can even accommodate a full-sized car. These tests can yield a variety of measurements. It is possible to measure the aerodynamic forces acting on an object as a whole or on specific parts of it. Sensors can be used to determine the air pressure at various locations. To depict the air's path around an object, smoke can be injected into the airstream. Alternately, certain components can have tiny threads attached to them to display the airflow there.

Aerospace & defence segment is anticipated to dominate the wind tunnel market. The expanded use of wind tunnels for testing aircraft used for aerospace & defence application, as these aircraft are generally exposed to harsh climatic conditions, can also be credited with the rise of the aerospace & defence application segment of the wind tunnel market.

The Wind Tunnel Market is expected to have healthy growth due to the rising production of passenger cars and acceptance of technologies that reduce vehicle emissions and fuel consumption.

Market Restraints

  • High Cost of Wind Tunnel Installation and Maintenance

For the installation and maintenance of wind tunnel fans requires huge amount of money to invest. Maximum cost required for construction of fan range of $2M-$10M. Cost is depending upon tunnel model and size. This high cost would limit the growth of global wind tunnel market.

  • Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Testing Instead of Wing Tunnel

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has the potential of replacing wind tunnel testing in many wind engineering applications. CFD has number of benefits like By making large-scale computer power more accessible, time and expense are minimized, growing acceptance rate in most of the regions. On the other hand wind tunnel system is facing scaling issue that makes it difficult to convert the results back to full scale, especially in urban areas.

Market Opportunities

  • Increasing Use of Wind Tunnel for Adventure Sports

Adventure of sport industry, including wind tunnel activities, has experience significant growth in recent years. They provide a controlled environment for various adventure sports and are particularly for indoor skydiving and bodyflights. Rising the use of wind tunnel for adneture sport can create high revenue opportunities for players in the target market.

Segmental Analysis

Segment By Type

  • Jet Fans

Jet Fan is a large and cylindrical device that is installed on the roof of tunnels and can distribute the fresh air entering the tunnel throughout it and cause air conditioning in this system.

  • Axial Flow Fans

An axial fan is an industrial fan that aids in the cooling of machines and devices. Its design enables airflow parallel to the rotor shaft, providing ventilation to the equipment and preventing excessive heat buildup.

Segment By Application

  • Low-speed

Low-speed wind tunnels are used for operations at very low Mach number, with speeds in the test section up to 480 km/h.

  • High-speed

A high-speed wind tunnel is a specialized facility used for testing and studying the effects of aerodynamic forces on objects at high speeds.

Recent Developments

California State University Maritime Academy - USA, 2018 Wind tunnels help engineers and manufacturers design, create, and build faster, safer, more reliable, and more efficient products of all kinds—like wind turbines.  In 2018, a team of engineers, technicians, and machinists at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), designed and built the CWC's second-generation (Gen2) wind tunnel. This team worked together on the overall design of the tunnel. The Gen2 wind tunnel capabilities include measuring wind speed, temperature, pressure, turbine voltage, turbine current, rotor rotations per minute, and the direction the turbine is facing relative to the wind.

MIT, 2017 - MIT unveils new Wright Brothers Wind Tunnel. In 2017, the MIT Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AeroAstro) announced it would replace the tunnel with a brand-new facility. Both the old and new Wright Brothers tunnels are closed-circuit types, where the air flows through the tunnel’s test section for measurement-taking before recirculating around the tunnel again. But that is where the similarities end. They  design an entirely new architecture with many innovations to the fan, diffusers, contraction, and the corner vanes to give the new tunnel their desired capabilities within the limits of the old tunnel’s existing footprint.”
