I'm designing a model car and I want to try to find the drag coefficient to make it super sleek and aero, is there any package for FreeCAD that would allow me to do that?
I can't find anything in my research but a wind tunnel would be great for my project.

bumping, anyone have any experience modeling drag?
Use a proper solution like Catia or NX for that kind of simulations or just plain old Matlab.

fairly certain you can do this in pro/e
if you import a solid body shape you can just integrate frontend / A in almost any CAD software
basically no: FreeCAD a shit

Use some CFD code. Import geometry into it.

Sad but true. I just use solidworjs in a VM. Robot design is more important than software freedom.

Alright, kid.
Import into openfoam. Simulate. OK.

openfoam,
okay now we're getting somewhere
y'all make this so complicated

What is the name of these fucking VNs or what the fuck ever
I see that shit all over and when I look it up all I get are smug animu grill reaction images because it seems the artist for this gets off on smugness and every single fucking girl has a smug expression holy fucking shit

smugness is so cute
yes please
>>53544109
does anyone have these smug lolis without the hats?

I don't want to be a dick, but you have zero chance of modeling anything accurately. CFD is utter shit unless you are actually a PhD in it and have done it for many, many years, and even then actually matching an experiment on the first shot rarely happens.
You will have to do a wind tunnel to even have a chance of an accurate result. Even that is going to be difficult as you need a facility and need to know how to wire up a load cell / instrumentation amplifier. Building a good facility is difficult, but easier than getting good CFD results.
I've worked in an experimental fluid mechanics research lab for 20 years.
