The global Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) market size is predicted to grow from US$ 1916 million in 2025 to US$ 3064 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.1% from 2025 to 2031.
CFD is a software application that helps end-users analyse the flow, turbulence, and pressure distribution of liquids and gases, and their interaction with structures. It also helps in predicting fluid flow, mass transfer, chemical reactions, and related phenomena. CFD uses high-speed computers, and various numerical methods and solvers to simulate the flow of fluids (gases and liquids). Simulation refers to the digital prototype of the real-world scenario. This helps detect errors in design before proceeding to production. CFD finds wide ranging applications in industries such as automotive, aerospace and defence, electrical and electronics, and energy. CFDs are used to design fuel systems, engine core compartments, cockpit and cabin ventilation, missiles, submarines, and evaluate aerodynamics in the aerospace and defence industry. This report considers the revenue generated from the offerings of CFD services and products.
Global CFD key players include ANSYS, Siemens, Dassault Syst猫mes, PTC, Altair Engineering, etc. Global top five manufacturers hold a share about 70%. North America is the largest market, with a share about 32%, followed by Europe and Asia-Pacific, both have a share over 58 percent. In terms of product, Maintenance and Service is the largest segment, with a share over 50%. And in terms of application, the largest application is Aerospace & Defense, followed by Automotive Industry, etc.
The primary market drivers for the CFD industry stem from the growing demand for efficient and precise simulation tools across industrial sectors. As industries such as manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, energy, and electronics increasingly prioritize product performance, CFD technology has become a critical tool for optimizing design, reducing costs, and shortening development cycles. For instance, in the automotive sector, CFD is used to enhance aerodynamic design and thermal management systems; in the energy sector, it helps improve the efficiency of wind turbines and gas turbines; and in the electronics industry, it addresses cooling challenges in high-density electronic devices. Moreover, stringent government regulations on energy conservation and emissions reduction, along with corporate emphasis on sustainable development, further propel the application of CFD technologies. The rise of cloud computing and artificial intelligence (AI) also injects new momentum into the CFD industry, enabling more efficient execution of complex simulations, lowering technical barriers, and reducing usage costs.
Trends in the CFD industry focus on technological convergence and innovative applications. First, cloud-based CFD solutions are gradually becoming mainstream, offering scalable computing resources and collaborative platforms that cater to the needs of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and research institutions. Second, the importance of multiphysics coupled simulations (such as fluid-structure interaction and fluid-thermal conduction) is becoming increasingly prominent, driving deeper integration between CFD and other simulation tools like Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and electromagnetic simulation. Additionally, AI and machine learning technologies are transforming CFD workflows, for example, by accelerating mesh generation, optimizing parameters, and predicting fluid behavior using AI. The popularity of open-source CFD software (such as OpenFOAM) also fosters industry innovation and knowledge sharing. Finally, with the emergence of digital twin technology, CFD's potential applications in real-time simulation and predictive maintenance are expanding, further broadening its market potential. These trends collectively push the CFD industry towards greater efficiency, intelligence, and accessibility.
