FKFS operates five different wind tunnels for industrial development and basic research. The modern Vehicle Aeroacoustics Wind Tunnel and the Model Wind Tunnel are used for aerodynamic and aeroacoustic testing. While the Thermal Wind Tunnel is mainly used for rain water management and soiling experiments, the Climatic Wind Tunnel of our Center for Climate Comfort is utilized for thermal management and climate comfort testing. The Climatic Wind Tunnel is complemented by a large Climatic Chamber which is used for winter testing and weathering investigations. The Digital Wind Tunnel covers the spectra of the other wind tunnels and is used in particular for testing in the early development stages and for method development.

The wind tunnels at FKFS allow aerodynamic and aeroacoustic experiments to be carried out, as well as thermal management experiments, which are realistic and reproducible. In every wind tunnel, we guarantee prototype security and strictest confidentiality. There is an extensive range of Measuring and Analytical Techniques available for a wide range of measuring tasks. Furthermore, FKFS offers its versatile know-how, obtained through many years of experience in the field of wind tunnels, in the form of Consulting and training courses.
