This project investigates the aerodynamic performance of a 3D-designed CO₂ dragster. The dragster has been modelled using CAD software and will be analysed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in SimScale. The simulation will examine airflow around the dragster as it travels through air. Key areas of investigation include air velocity, pressure distribution, airflow behaviour, turbulence and aerodynamic drag. The purpose of the simulation is to identify areas of the dragster design that may increase aerodynamic resistance and determine how changes to the vehicle's shape can improve airflow and reduce drag.
