  • Yes it can. Check it out at cfdesign.com

  • I'm using CFdesign V10.

  • @slimjim8201 so this is not catia?

  • @viruz786 No, this is CFdesign. The model itself can come from any CAD package however (Catia, NX, SolidWorks, Inventor, etc)

  • can this program integrate the pressure, get lift and drag and such?

  • In response to the comments about the pressure around the air intake, There is no proper answer unless the the vehicle speed and the engine air consumption is known. Ideally the intake should be flow neutral with any pressure produced in a diffuser behind the intake but the intake velocity is entirely dependant on engine airflow which is mostly controlled by the drivers right foot. So the flow could go from stagnation to suction any time.

  • now, applying proper rules of fluid dynamics, the air directly infront of the intake should be high pressure, but once accelerated, inside it should be low pressure, not only because of bernoiuli's laws, but because it's expanding into the plenum.

  • ???? i'm sorry, i didn't know you're an expert on rheology. now, expert, please explain, if it's lower pressure, why even bother placing it there? when it compromises the safety-triangle's structural strength? the whole point on putting an intake there is for the air at 100mph+ to force itself in, cleanly, without turbulence.

  • this is no compressible flow.. you should go learn back fluid dynamic 101 before you tell me what it is...

  • not at all. in fact that higher pressure is what forces air into the plenum. it's called ram effect induction. go learn THEN comment

  • wrong defination:

    i) area behind the head human, should be low pressure because it sucks in.

    ii) tyre...should be rotation, therefore less pressure profile
