Application #52. Adjoint-Based Design of Indy Car Wing
Contributed by Kyle Anderson
Design optimization of turbulent flow over the rear wing of an Indy car.
The goal was to maximize the downforce produced by the airfoil. The region of separation at the trailing edge of the flap has been largely eliminated, resulting in an increase of 6% in downforce.
