Abstract
This thesis investigates the development and analysis of an alternative meshing methodology for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations, focusing on the comparison between meshes generated by ANSA and STAR-CCM+ software. The study is applied to the single-seater car designed by “Squadra Corse PoliTo” for the Formula SAE international university competition. The primary objective is to generate a high-quality mesh in ANSA and rigorously evaluate it against the STAR-CCM+ mesh using various quality criteria, such as element skewness, face validity, and overall mesh structure. In addition, this new mesh is validated through a series of CFD simulations conducted using the ANSA mesh as a discretization of the computational domain.
In particular, the same rectilinear and symmetrical domain (half car) is used as simulations currently carried out during the design process and based on the STAR-CCM+ mesh
