The automotive industry is constantly evolving, with new technologies and features being introduced at a rapid pace. As a result, automakers are under pressure to develop new products quickly and efficiently in order to stay competitive in the market. One important aspect of product development is aerodynamics, which plays a crucial role in the performance and efficiency of vehicles.
The client decided to implement automated vehicle aerodynamics simulations to address these challenges. The solution involved using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software to simulate the flow of air around the vehicle and predict its aerodynamic performance.
This would allow the client to:
Reduce time and cost: By using simulation technology, the client was able to eliminate the need for physical wind tunnel testing, saving both time and money. They could conduct multiple simulations in a fraction of the time it would take to conduct one physical test. This allowed them to make design modifications quickly and efficiently without incurring additional costs.
The client estimated that they were able to save millions of dollars in development costs by using simulations. They also reduced their time-to-market by several months, giving them a competitive advantage in the market.
They were also able to identify potential issues early on in the development process, avoiding costly redesigns and delays. This helped them produce higher quality vehicles and maintain customer satisfaction.
The implementation of automated vehicle aerodynamics simulations had a significant impact on the client's product development process. They were able to:
