Designing a 1,000mph car - the use of CFD
|
|
The BLOODHOUND Supersonic Car is set to take the Land Speed
Record into a whole new era. The team plans to take a manned
vehicle to 1000mph by 2018, increasing the current Land
Speed Record (763mph) by over 30%.
This target presents the Bloodhound CFD team with massive
scientific and engineering challenges.
Dr Ben Evans of the University of Swansea will talk
about the aerodynamics of the Bloodhound SSC project and
discuss the extreme challenges of designing a car to
reach 1000mph.
