Aerodynamics is the branch of fluid mechanicsthat studies the actions that appear on solidbodies when exist a relative motion betweenthem and the gaseous fluid that surroundsthem.
Aim: to improve the capacity of the vehicles topenetrate the air with the smaller possibleeffort...
Through the modification of the forms and
surfaces.

The method of the finite elements consists oftaking a body and dividing it in smallelements that together correspond with theoriginal body in their geometry.(discretization)
For a smallest element, bettermatch with the real geometry and moreaccurate results

the solid, maintaining close contact between
all "points"
The forces in this system must be considered in
all points of the solid surface, actually almost
infinite, determined by the size of molecules of
the fluid.

Due of complexity of effects of air over vehiclethis relations between forces it are made
depend of only one variable (coefficient)
Cx coefficient it is obtained from a specific
formula with a unique unknown value: "force in

NX are suitable and adequate for thedevelopment of these tests.
The software provides accurate and reliableresults, consistent with one another whenexternal conditions change.
The way to show numerical data canbe improved to be more understandable.
CFD simulations carried out have proveduseful in the development process andoptimize aerodynamics of the vehicle.

There is no informationabout the implementation of "Rolling-road" by NX.
Confirm the trends discovered and generatespecific documentation for NX, no longer
exists.
The type of mesh element must be studied ina similar way to define its impact ontheaccuracy and computational time.
The boundary layer should be integrated into
the analysis.
