KLK Motorsports uses Simcenter STAR-CCM+ to carry out automatic case setup from meshing through running to data analysis and visualization. This results in savings of 70% in engineering time, while at the same time not requiring an extremely high level of knowledge. Best practices in terms of mesh and boundary conditions were applied automatically and different design variants configured and run.
The time savings from process automation allow engineers to look at many more design variations during the tight design window typical of performance vehicles. This enables KLK Motorsports to look at new novel concepts to improve performance of their vehicles compared to the rest of the race track.
