You are invited to our free workshop on Sunday, May 17th at the Michigan International Speedway FSAE competition! This is a chance to learn about our FSAE sponsorship package (free training, support, and licensing) and our easy to use, state of the art multidisciplinary simulation software called STAR-CCM+®. During this workshop, we will show how the software can be used to enhance the performance of your car in the following areas:

• Aerodynamics: Reducing drag, increasing down- force, increase stability, etc.
• Vehicle Thermal Management: Cooling optimization and temperature prediction for components and entire systems.
• Powertrain: Flow uniformity and minimizing pressure drop at intake, exhaust systems, combustion analysis, turbocharger analysis, etc.

1. A demonstration of an external aerodynamics simulation from start to finish.
2. Details on the advantages your team has available through our academic program such as free training, free licensing, and free support.
3. Support-related questions for guidance on simulation interests or existing simulations.
4. Video competition winners and cash prize awards (see details below).

CD-adapco is challenging you to tell a narrative on how STAR-CCM+ and our sponsorship helped your team to improve your car design. 1st place will be awarded $500, 2nd place with $300, and 3rd place with $200. Learn more here.
