I have started to experiment 3D printing. First model it has some issues but over all surface finish was good a part from warping on the hard corners. I still have lots to learn about 3D printing.

P04R Streamline Test





2004 P04 R Stream lines Test with Ansys CFD. 12 years After I have designed this car I have put CAD model to CFD test to see how well I fared back then. Car generated slightly more drag than any of my rear mid engined designs but has a pretty good lift to drag ratio of -2.95:1. This specific P04 R has 2 different cooling configuration that tested model has radiators placed forward front wheel axis, second configuration has its radiators placed inside the sidepods fed via ducting from front. Wind and ground speed is at 70m/s (252 km/h) and wheels are rotating relative to ground speed, Animation does not have rotating wheels due to analysis was made with steady state condition, all stream lines were captured at the same time interval.

Some Updated Renderings of P47

Another car work in progress While P49 chassis is almost complete. P47 is a compact GT Racer for gentleman drivers or younger drivers. Base model generates quite good amount of down-force at a reasonable drag (-2:1 lift to drag ratio CFD tested).  I will be uploading more information to P47 Page on my blog from time to time.
