As this is the first test ive done what sort of things should i look for to improve the wing?
when I look into cfd results it depends on what you are looking for, low drag, high downforceastracrazy wrote:Matt - your 100% right. Mainly i'm doing it because learning to use solidworks was a lot easier just on a rear wing. Ideally i'd create the whole car 1st then test the rear wing, but i'm not sure that my computer could handle that all together. I'll obviously try to add bits to the simulation to see what happens.
Ricme - solidworks, took all sunday (today) to work it all out (finding different tutorial etc) i can write some quick instructions for you? It is quiet simple once you know.
As i said, Matts right, but in terms of just the rear wing (or any other simulation) what should i look for to make improvements? Using the rear wing as an example. New to reading into cfd results
Thanks
Aerodynamically they will do nothing but cause drag, take a look at f1 wings currently, the slots arent just cutouts, they are louvres, they are meant to reduce the surface drag of the endplateastracrazy wrote:here you go
