Harnessing the wind

What we do

The Aerodynamics team consists of around 20 members and is divided into two sub-groups: Design and Computational Fluid Dynamics simulations (CFD). The Design Team develops aerodynamic concepts in CAD using CDF to guide an iterative design process. They are also responsible for designing the mechanical components of the aero package and manufacturing parts in materials such as pre-preg carbon fibre.

Every surface on the car has a purpose. Our job is to shape the airflow so the car gains grip where it matters, without paying too much in drag.

CFD group

The CFD sub-group focuses on maintaining and developing the team’s CFD methodology.

In addition, the team includes a structural engineer who develops composite Finite Element Modeling (FEM) models to optimize laminate layups and ensure structural integrity.
