Understanding Design Efficiency
Overview
External Aerodynamics deals with airflow around external surfaces of vehicles, aircraft, buildings, and other structures. Internal Aerodynamics focuses on airflow within ducts, pipes, engines, and HVAC systems. CFD simulations are used to analyze aerodynamic performance, drag reduction, and airflow optimization in these applications. External aerodynamics covers lift/drag computation, wake analysis, and flow separation prediction. Internal aerodynamics covers pressure drop, velocity distributions, and flow uniformity within enclosed passages — both critical for design optimization across automotive, aerospace, and industrial applications.
