Virtual Wind Tunnel

A Virtual Wind Tunnel is a computer-based simulation tool used to analyze how objects, like airplanes or cars, interact with air or fluid flow. Instead of building physical models and testing them in real wind tunnels, engineers create a digital model and use software to mimic airflow behavior around it. This allows for detailed studies of aerodynamic features, such as drag and lift, quickly and cost-effectively. Virtual Wind Tunnels help optimize designs by predicting performance, improving efficiency, and reducing the need for extensive physical testing.
