Hi everyone !
I've been trying to model the flow around a car with an aim to determine the aerodynamic lift and drag induced and the local velocity near the rear of the vehicle(almost at a point where the leading edge of a spoiler will come) to a fair level of accuracy...Since am pretty new to CFD, I was wondering how important it is to accurately model the boundary layer near the car body as well as the ground...i have been using a general tetra mesh(with face sizing in the relevant regions) until now and was thinking about introducing a program controlled inflation , to introduce prism layers at these regions Am using Fluent module in ANSYS Workbench btw Please give your suggestions and advice |
