External Air Flow for a Truck

External Air Flow for a Truck — Overview

This tutorial explains the steps to perform an external air flow simulation for a truck in a wind tunnel. Air enters the wind tunnel at a velocity of 20 m/s and exits at a pressure of 0 Pa. You can see the geometry and conditions for the truck in the figure below.
