Season 2 Episode #4: Computational Fluid Dynamics with Ansys
Description
You may not have heard of computational fluid dynamics, CFD for short, or, if you’re currently competing in F1 in Schools, you might be a whiz in the field already, but whatever your skill level, this episode of The Main Straight is sure to be an interesting listen.
Host Tom Deacon chats to the team at Ansys, the official CFD partner of F1 in Schools, to learn about the software that has transformed F1 teams’ ability to test a car's performance before it gets anywhere a racetrack.
Enabling the simulation of variable factors such as air pressure, temperature, and turbulence, and for minute bodywork and component details to be examined and analysed for impact, F1 engineers are able to design with more precision than ever before - and it definitely shows, as Susan and Vishal of Ansys explain.
