Overview
Elevate your CFD post-processing skills and learn to interpret results like a pro. In this special session, you’ll get direct insight from Matthew Sorrell, Head of Aerodynamic Tools & Methods at Oracle Red Bull Racing, as he walks through a real FSAE simulation from Panther Racing—the University of Pittsburgh’s Formula SAE team.
This is a rare opportunity to experience how an elite motorsports aerodynamicist evaluates CFD data, identifies flow issues, and provides design recommendations to enhance performance. You’ll learn how to refine your post-processing workflow, extract more actionable insights, and connect simulation results to real design decisions on your car.
Whether you’re already using Ansys Fluent or just starting to explore CFD, this session will help your team take a significant step forward in simulation-driven design—guided by one of the best in the business.
