- Time to ask the list for some input. I have recently been involved with a race team that had an accident at the salt. This car and another I'm involved with were/are running very close to what we bel

- Mike this isn't a direct answer to your question... mostly because I don't have the experience your looking for... but here's my take on the situation. In all things answers are never as important as

- There are 3 problems with CFD. 1. Your input model has to be perfect right down to body imperfections in joints etc. 2. It is still a simulation and as such subject to the rules of the software corre

- The following is based on my experience and observation at speeds up to 320 mph. Above that -- I don't know anything. Keith and Dave have the best answer. CFD works best during initial design when y

- This is just my amateur opinion. I would think that computer modeling would almost have to glean you some information, but doubt you would get anywhere close to $35,000. worth. Would think a wind tu

- Interesting talk about CFD. I can add a couple of bits of wisdom here. Last year I retired from a mechanical engineering career. Last employer, Applied Materials, was pretty serious about CFD for mod

- Speaking of solid modeling, do you know of anyone who has done any on a Chevy small-block engine? Actually, I'd like to get some dimensional drawings but I haven't been able to find any as yet. What

- For the average dilettante (me), $2k is more than I'd want to spend; something more like one in the price range of Microsoft Picture Publisher would be OK. I fooled around with Algor and COSMOS demo

- I think the companies selling the FEA modelers are trying real hard to shorten the learning curve and make it easier for a busy engineer to put their product into his working "toolbox". Like I menti

- Thanks, Ed. My demo disks were pretty old so FEA companies probably have more easy-to-use software now. Regards, Neil Tucson, AZ --Original Message-- From: The Weldons [mailto:2weldons@earthlink.net]
