Wind Tunnel

Betamadang Studio · A 2D wind tunnel: place a car or a shape, or draw your own, and watch the air flow around it. It solves real fluid flow with the lattice Boltzmann method and shows smoke, speed, pressure and vorticity, with a drag coefficient you can compare.

About this work

Wind blows in from the left. Pick a car or draw your own shape to see how the air flows around it and how much drag it makes. Compared in the same wind The air is split into a fine grid and solved with a real fluid method (lattice Boltzmann). It is a narrow 2D tunnel, so the numbers differ from real cars; use them to compare shapes under the same conditions. The floor under the car moves with the wind, like a road.
