According to our latest market study, titled "Wind Tunnel Market Forecast to 2028 – COVID-19 Impact and Global Analysis – by Solution, Alignment, Airspeed Type, and Application," the market is projected to reach US$ 3,784.56 million by 2028 from US$ 2,706.26 million in 2021. It is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.9% from 2021 to 2028.

The impact of wind force on man-made structures is crucial, especially in high-rise buildings with large surfaces exposed to wind, wherein the building's internal construction resists the resulting forces. Despite the increased adoption of computational fluid dynamics for structural testing because of faster computing, it is not considered suitable for routine usage in the structural designing of buildings, as its predictions need to be verified by experiments. Testing through a wind tunnel helps determine wind pressures on buildings, as it allows to take aerodynamic measurements simultaneously at numerous ports through current pressure measurement capabilities. Modern wind tunnels, rapid scanning equipment, and fast computers with large storage allow construction and design firms to simultaneously measure multiple pressure taps, facilitating the development of time domain-based methods of calculating the aerodynamics of the building.

The wind tunnel is most widely used in the aerospace industry as they allow aeronautical engineers to control the conditions affecting the forces and motion of the plane. It is primarily used to observe and determine the fundamental working of new aircraft designs and the air movement around or through the aircraft. The dynamic nature of aeronautic research and more efficient integration with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software contributes to the widespread use of wind tunnels. The tunnels are designed for a specific purpose and are often integrated with sensors and components to generate precise test results. For instance, PCB offers a complete line of dynamic pressure sensors, microphones, and force sensors for wind tunnels. These components for wind tunnels are categorized based on the speed of the wind.

The global wind tunnel market is dominated by major players that collectively account for a large portion of the overall market. These companies are strategically focused on the innovation of technology, as well as acquisition and merger activities. The key players present in the wind tunnel market are focusing on mergers and acquisitions to enlarge the customer base across the globe which also permits the players to maintain their brand name globally. For instance, November 2020, Deharde GmbH and ETW had partnered to target the application of remote controls for an aileron installed on a high-speed full-model. This partnership would help to company to leverage more customer base. In addition, in March 2021, RUAG has developed and tested wind tunnel models for simulating emerging turbofan and propeller technologies. Thus, such initiative is further helping to dive the market growth. Thus, growing strategic initiatives along with supportive government regulations augments the adoption of wind tunnel for the development of aircraft applications which is further driving the market growth over the forecast period.

Moreover, evaluating the impact of wind force on high-rise buildings, factories, and bridges can help building designers construct a structure that efficiently withstands the effects of wind. The wind tunnel modeling is also being applied to analyze the exhaust gas dispersion patterns at hospitals, laboratories, and other emitting sources. The use of boundary layer wind tunnel modeling adds to the credit score for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification provided by the US Green Building Council.

The growth of the global wind tunnel market is attributed to the rising demand for green buildings, which has gained prominent support from government agencies and construction firms. The European Green Deal (EGD) launched by the European Commission in 2019 provided a list of policy initiatives that will align European countries with the net-zero global warming emissions target by 2050. The deal entails building and renovation, sustainable mobility biodiversity, eliminating pollution, and climate action, among other parameters. The commission also launched the EU renovation wave for the building sector to accelerate the energy-efficient renovation and enhance the environmental performances of ~220 million buildings. Therefore, the positive prospects of the green building market are boosting the wind tunnel market growth.
