Sports Industry Customer Testimonials

 

"To win at anything you have to surround yourself with the best. That is why we use FLUENT CFD software to visualize and analyze fluid flows such as air flowing over the vehicle or water flowing through the cylinder head. FLUENT is an integral part of keeping our race teams at their best."

- Joe Gibbs
NFL Hall of Fame Football Coach and Team Owner of Reigning Winston Cup Champion Bobby Labonte Car

"Speed is a concern of ours every step of the way. That includes learning to use new software. I was extremely pleased with the ease and speed that I was able to effectively use FLUENT software. I can now analyze powertrain components such as manifold or intake ports from CAD to solution in just one day. The accuracy and robustness of FLUENT, coupled with unlimited technical support from their Ann Arbor-based automotive team, were critical to the quick implementation of CFD, which is new to our industry."

- Charles Jenckes
Team Engineer, Gibbs Racing

"We found that Fluent can provide the wide variety of powerful CFD modeling tools that we require to stay ahead of the competition. Their technical support is, by far, the best we have experienced since we started using virtual flow modeling as part of our analysis process."

- Chris Bell
Quicksilver World Water Speed Record Challenge, UK

"CFD fits into our concurrent engineering strategy right back at the conceptual design stage and provides us with a powerful tool to improve our cars. Very quickly we found we could look at ten wing configurations rather than one."

- Dr. Pat Symonds
Technical Director, Benetton Formula I

"As the world's most used CFD method, it clearly has better funding and development than any other package on the market. With such an extensive user base, the program is probably the best tested on the market as well and practically guarantees robustness for even the most difficult flow regimes."

- Peter Machin
Senior CFD Engineer, Arrows GP International Ltd.
