DrivAer validation case - Automotive simulation

In this tutorial, we simulate the DrivAer car model. You will learn about,

• Running steady external aerodynamics automotive simulations.
• Setting boundary conditions for rotating wheels and moving ground.
• Field initialization.
• Setting the thermophysical properties for the working fluid.
• Setting a robust numeric for compressible-supersonic flow simulations.
• Adjusting the PIMPLE loop to improve accuracy.
• Sampling and plotting
