Abstract
On constant hunt for performance oriented cars, aerodynamics of cars is an important research topic that cannot be neglected as it plays a pivotal role in stability, handling and fuel efficiency. The scope of the project is to gain insight into the phenomenon that occurs during the interaction between the fluid that is air and the car as the latter propels itself forward. We have simulated real world conditions for original and modified models of the car in an attempt to reduce the overall drag coefficient of the car. The use of fluid flow simulations (using FLOEFD CFD tool) in such a CAD-embedded context is obviously very attractive as it can not only accelerate the design process, but it can make these processes more predictable and reliable, against a background of increasing design complexity and dependence on external development partners.Aerodynamics is something that changes not only how fast a vehicle goes, but also how efficient it is.
