Twenty-two fans, not one.

Unlike other tunnels, the AeroDyn Wind Tunnel features 22 individual 100HP fans. This allows for rapid start up and shut down. We leverage active fan braking to slow the fans down after a run allowing a fast turn around. Our focus is on increasing productivity and providing the best value for our customers.

22 × 100HP — 2,200HP total — active braking between runs

Yaw about the front axle.

Unlike most wind tunnels, AeroDyn yaws the vehicle about the front axle, similar to what is seen on track. Our tunnel is able to yaw the vehicle from +3° to −5°. This automation allows for quick aero-mapping with precise, repeatable results.

Drag the control to sweep the range.
