Tesla CyberTruck | CFD Analysis of the Drag Coefficient - Tutorial | Forces Simulation

- I found a post saying that the air drag coefficient was simulated by someone because tesla did not publish their data. Since this is fairly easy, I thought this could be a nice tutorial.

Your doing something everybody want, yet no body has done...Keep up the great work
I appreciate that
Nice work man, been looking for a tutorial on this, will help me greatly in a project! Subscribed, thanks a lot!
Thanks for you feedback
Great work man, keep it up !
Appreciate it!
Good simulation.👍👍
Great work, Nice step by step explaination. Will be watching this channel closely. If possible, could you do a tutorial of natural ventilation or air flow inside a simple building with multiple open doors and open windows ? Is it possible to use open foam for this ?
Great suggestion!
Vielen Dank mein Bester :--)
Ótimo tutorial
Muito Obrigado
Hello, nicely done ! But I'm beginner and I want to understand why do you have a STL file for "air" ? Thanks
Hello @EngineerDo,
I am working on a CFD analysis of an airfoil named NACA 2412 and I have done a lot of analysis. Based on my researchs in literature while calculating Re number chord length was used generally, but analysis results that I have done shows that using thickness as a characteristic lenght is more appropriate. If you have a knowledge about this topic whould you consider to help me?
What version of Helyx is that ?
Hi! I find your video extremely useful as I'm studying ingineering and currently working on a project concerning the impacts of side mirrors on cars' aerodynamics. I just have a question:
which version of Helyx did you use and how do I get it? On their website I found information only on their business product.
Thanks for your help!
Thank you for your comment. We used helyx OS along with OpenFoam 5.x
@@engineerdo6568 Thanks a lot! I'll try to get all that to work.
satisfying
Great you enjoyed :)
Hi, can you do a video of installation of HELYX and OpenFOAM compatible version.
Hey chamara,
sounds good. We put it on the list.
Cheers!
Hi. Is it possible to contact you privately to see if you’re interested in trying something to do with racing cars?

Yes sure mate, you can contact us via our website engineerdo.com
Thank you for the simulation. but it seems it has a specific agenda that is to prove Elon Musk wrong. Firstly Elon Musk never said CT drag coefficient is 0.3. He said: "with significant effort, the CT MIGHT achieve a drag coef. of 0.3". And he said that several years ago. Please be fair. Secondly, it would be very useful if you used the same simulation software to calculate the Cd for Ford F-150 Lightning, and a couple of other ICE trucks. Finally the Cd of CT truck reported elsewhere appears to be 0.36 and that value is obtained in a real wind tunnel. Ford F150 lightning has a reported wind tunnel Cd of 0.44.
I correct myself. 0.36 (CT) and (0.44) are also obtained from simulations. Also, please remember that this simulation is based on the initial design which is bigger than the final product today. The simulation is more than 3 years old. So the drag coef. needs to be revised down.
Thanks for your comment. The simulation shown here is a showcase for the use of CFD software in this case openFoam. You will also find a very different car on this channel and you will learn how you can use simulations to understand drag and lift better and how Eddie's are created
The tempo of this "tutorial" is too fast. It is difficult to follow it and repeat the task. You are speaking bad English with possibly a German accent so it is best to speak a bit slower tempo or use texts as help. Also some enlightening of the open foam features would be good. I need to find other tutorials.
Your welcome
