A recirculating wind tunnel is described that provides a controlled convective and radiative environment for energy metabolism studies with animals. Simultaneous regulation of air temperature, wind speed and short-wave irradiance is achieved. The physical conditions can be maintained for at least 24 h. Flow straighteners lower wind turbulence in the small-sized tunnel. Wind tunnel volume is minimised to facilitate steady-state measurement of respiratory gases.
