Pinewood Derby CFD Study: Mesh and Model Development

About this project

The goal of this project is to evaluate the aerodynamics of a Boy Scouts of America Pinewood Derby car. This is the first in a series of projects involving many concepts including turbulence modeling, advanced meshing, multiple reference frames, and aerodynamic optimization. Follow along as we learn more about aerodynamics and how to build an aerodynamic BSA Pinewood Derby winner.
