The global aircraft turbocharger market was valued at $659.8 million in 2020, and is projected to reach $1,195.3 million in 2030, registering a CAGR of 6.5%.
A turbocharger is a device that boosts the power and efficiency of a combustion engine by forcing more compressed air into the combustion chamber. Turbochargers are used in a variety of applications, including aviation, to increase the density of the intake gas, allowing for more power. Aircraft turbochargers are made up of three principal components, a compressor, a turbine, and a rotating center housing assembly. Aircraft turbocharger is genera used in aircraft manufactured by the leading brands across the globe.
The global aircraft turbocharger market is segmented into type, platform, component, and region. On the basis of type, the market is bifurcated into butterfly valve type and poppet valve type. Depending on platform, it is segregated into heavyweight aircraft and lightweight aircraft. By component, it is categorized into compressor, turbine, and waste gate. Region wise, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
The key players operating in the global aircraft turbocharger market include ABB Ltd., Airmark Overhaul, Inc., BorgWarner Inc., General Electric Company, Hartzell Engine Technologies LLC, Honeywell International Inc., Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd., PBS Group, A. S., Rajay Parts LLC, and Victor Aviation Service, Inc.
By Turbocharger Type
Butterfly Valve Type is projected as the most lucrative segments
Increase in air passenger traffic across the globe
According to the yearly worldwide statistics of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), the total number of commuters carried on scheduled flights reached 4.38 billion in 2019, which was 3.65% higher than the previous year. The highest passenger traffic was witnessed in Asia-Pacific. In October 2018, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) publicized that the current developments in air transport project that the passenger count could double to 8.2 billion in 2037. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic led to a severe downfall in air traffic figures, although recently, in May 2021, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) stated that the global air passenger traffic is anticipated to recover to almost 88% of pre-COVID levels during 2022. This signifies a robust demand for air travel across the globe.
The abovementioned statistics indicate a considerable rise in air passenger traffic over the years internationally. This rise would result in a notable surge in demand for new aircraft and new and overhauled aircraft components throughout the world, which would directly impact the sales of aircraft turbocharger systems. Hence, rise in air traffic is anticipated to drive the growth of the aircraft turbocharger market.
By Platform
Heavyweight Aircraft is projected as the most lucrative segments
Surge in demand for fuel-efficient and downsized engine
Aircraft turbochargers function as an air pump, forcing compressed air into the combustion chamber to increase the mass of the intake air. When the piston is lowered and the engine receives air, the vacuum is created. As the turbocharger forces the intake air, the pressure inside the inlet manifold rises above atmospheric pressure throughout this operation. This may pump a lot of power into the engine, which helps in proper combustion, and results in cutting down on fuel consumption and CO2 emissions when compared to a normally aspirated engine with the same power output. Hence, surge in demand for force induction device is projected to drive the growth of aircraft turbocharger market during the forecast period.
High costs associated with aircraft turbochargers
Aviation is a capital-intensive industry. Even a smallest part has to be tested and improved several times before it can be installed in an aircraft. This adds ups the cost of R&D for aircraft components. Moreover, manufacturers have to obtain a certificate by aviation agencies such as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA)—prior to the production of aircraft parts, including turbochargers before fitting them in respective aircraft models. Turbochargers increase the fuel efficiency, and is a must for high fuel consuming aircraft engines that fly at thousands of feet above the ground. With rise in air passenger traffic, aircraft have to fly for longer hours now, the aircraft components get used up rapidly and must go through regular maintenance. Furthermore, aircraft turbochargers have to be inspected and refitted after proper maintenance work. This adds up to the high overall cost of an aircraft turbocharger operations. These factors are expected to affect the growth of aircraft turbocharger market during the forecast period.
By Component
Compressor is projected as the most lucrative segments
Increase in operations in commercial aviation
The commercial aviation industry consists of two segments, including passenger aircraft and cargo aircraft. In recent years, both segments have performed really well and has witnessed a rapid rise in operations, which have boosted the global commercial aviation industry. With globally rising air passenger traffic, the industry has seen a surge in market growth, which holds huge prospects, however, the unprecedented occurrence of COVID-19 pandemic has affected the industry in terms of revenue growth.
Key aviation players around the world are finding ways to make aviation sector more efficient, safer, and reliable. Hence, rapid development has been witnessed in the commercial aircraft industry in the recent years. According to the Boeing’s Commercial Market Outlook (CMO) 2020–2039, the 2021 CMO reflects that the global market is recovering rapidly. Surge in demand for domestic air travel is responsible for the recovery of the airliner industry amid ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and intra-regional markets are expected to open with full capacity, as health and travel restrictions ease, followed by return to pre-pandemic levels by 2023 to 2024 with respect to long-haul travel scenario. It mentions that in long term, market fundamentals and resilience will drive the demand for more than 43,500 new airplanes valued at $7.2 trillion by 2040. Thus, all these factors collectively are expected to fuel the growth of the aircraft turbocharger market during the forecast period.
By Region
Asia-Pacific would exhibit the highest CAGR of 7.4% during 2021-2030.
COVID-19 impact analysis
