A specialized TunnelTech installation crew maneuvers a large white diffuser panel suspended by crane chains. The team guides the angular FRP composite section into position for assembly at the construction site. This structural component forms a critical part of the wind tunnel's aerodynamic loop, specifically designed to expand airflow and recover pressure downstream of the flight chamber. The workers wear standard personal protective equipment while handling the heavy load.

TunnelTech installation technicians assemble large corner duct sections containing turning vanes at an outdoor construction site. The personnel are securing the steel housing and internal vane structures, which incorporate integrated active cooling channels for thermal management. These turning vanes guide airflow through 90-degree turns to reduce pressure loss and turbulence while functioning as heat exchangers. The image shows the team preparing the heavy industrial segments for integration into the wind tunnel's return loop.
A TunnelTech installation technician performs assembly work on the exterior of vertical wind tunnel diffuser sections using rope access equipment. The large cylindrical duct segments connect via vertical bolted flanges to form the upper portion of the aerodynamic loop. This assembly technique allows the team to secure joints and inspect the structure on tall vertical components without the use of heavy scaffolding.
TunnelTech installation technicians perform rigging operations during the assembly of a TT45 PRO wind tunnel. The team members, wearing full safety harnesses and protective equipment, utilize chain hoists to position a large, curved steel duct section within the concrete facility structure. This phase of construction involves the precise alignment and bolting of heavy structural flanges to form the continuous aerodynamic loop required for the 4.5-meter flight chamber system.
