Checking the aerodynamic performance of aircraft and other vehicles is a major application for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software, and users of SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation are no exception. Product Manager Damon Tordini demonstrates the capabilities that make it easy for SOLIDWORKS design engineers to check for lift, drag, and other parameters over a large range of flight conditions
