Airflow around the Basilisk Performance Car Design 1 for the F1 in Schools World Finals 2010. The CFD simulation was performed in Caedium Professional and rendered by POV-Ray. The image shows pressure coefficient (Cp) contours, where blue is low and red is high.

Parallel CFD simulation of a Racecar. The original 5 million cell mesh came courtesy of Advantage CFD, who released this case into the public domain. The 64-bit version of Caedium for Windows performed the parallel simulation on a laptop equipped with an Intel i7 processor (8 cores, though only 6 were used by Caedium) and 6 GB of RAM (with room to spare for other applications), running Windows 7 64-bit. The image shows streamlines colored by velocity magnitude and a semi-transparent car body also colored by velocity magnitude.
