hi, im a technological design student and the lead designer for the formula one team at Satec @w.a porter. I recently got the tech department head to give me(well the team) a computer with linux and openfoam so we can run it as a cfd for our car, now the problem is i don't know where or how to get a tutorial that will allow me to use openfoam in this way.
This is really urgent and i am totaly lost

.

p.s if im in the wrong area for this thread, can an forum admin please redirect me to the correct place. Thank you

and in the folder run/tutorials you'll find a lot of tutorials!!

Specifically, you should probably have a look at the motorbike tutorial. You'll find a lot of threads in the forum relating to it as well.
