CFD Full Vehicle FE Model Build Services

Understanding CFD in Vehicle Engineering

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a fundamental tool in vehicle engineering, focusing on the analysis of fluid flow and heat transfer within and around vehicles. A CFD Full Vehicle Finite Element (FE) Model is a virtual representation of the entire vehicle, used to simulate and analyse aerodynamics, thermal management, and other fluid flow-related aspects.

At Machweise Technology, we specialize in developing highly detailed and accurate CFD Full Vehicle FE Models. Our services are designed to assist automotive manufacturers and engineers in optimizing vehicle performance, fuel efficiency, aerodynamics, and thermal management.

Key Components of Our CFD Full Vehicle FE Model Services

CAD Import and Cleanup

We start by importing the vehicle’s Computer-Aided Design (CAD) data. Our experts ensure that the CAD geometry is suitable for CFD analysis by cleaning up and optimizing it for fluid dynamics simulations

Material Properties

Accurate material properties for vehicle components are assigned to ensure that the FE model accurately represents the physical characteristics of the materials used in the vehicle’s construction

Component and Assembly Modelling

We create a detailed model of every component in the vehicle, from the chassis and body to the suspension, powertrain, interior, and more. Our assembly modelling ensures that all components are properly connected, replicating the real-world vehicle structure

Boundary Conditions

We apply boundary conditions that replicate real-world operating conditions, including airflow, temperature gradients, and other dynamic inputs. This ensures that the CFD simulations accurately reflect the actual fluid behaviour around and within the vehicle

Finite Element Mesh Generation

Our team generates a high-quality finite element mesh to discretize the vehicle geometry. Mesh quality is crucial to ensure accurate CFD simulations

Aerodynamic Analysis

We use advanced CFD software to perform aerodynamic simulations, assessing drag, lift, and flow patterns. These simulations help identify design improvements for better fuel efficiency and vehicle performance

Thermal Analysis

We analyse the thermal behaviour of the vehicle, simulating heat distribution and heat transfer. This is crucial for optimizing thermal management and preventing overheating issues

Fluid Flow Analysis

We perform detailed fluid flow simulations to assess the behaviour of fluids or gases within the vehicle, which is important for various applications, such as HVAC system design, cooling system optimization, and exhaust system efficiency

Reporting and Recommendations

We provide comprehensive reports summarizing the CFD analysis results and recommendations for design modifications to improve vehicle aerodynamics, fuel efficiency, and thermal management
