Vehicle Thermal Management Introduction by Richard Johns In the midst of constant media reminders about how tough times are, it’s difficult not to be at least a little gloomy about the prospects for the engineering business as a whole. This magazine is designed to provide an antidote to the doom and gloom showing that, not only is the CAE business as buoyant as ever, but that simulation is becoming even more pervasive, being used at every stage of the engineering process, and penetrating all levels of industry. This magazine contains stories that demonstrate how CFD is being A good example of this is our cover story from Propulsive Wing LLC (pg 07) used for everything from student motorsport design to the historical in which STAR-CCM+ was used to map the complex relationship between analysis of long forgotten race cars, in each case demonstrating that propulsion system settings and the aircraft stability - creating a stable aircraft serious engineering analysis can be performed using very limited design before the first prototype had been constructed. A thumb through these resources. pages, or a visit to one of our upcoming webinars, seminars or STAR conferences Just a few years ago this would have been unthinkable. Serious vehicle should help to convince you that automation really is the future of Computer aerodynamic simulation was the sole preserve of race-car manufacturers and Aided Engineering, and that no company is better placed to provide you with the OEMs, each of whom would employ large teams of dedicated specialists working necessary tools than CD-adapco. a cluster of machines around the clock to churn out timely engineering data Finally, I’d like to draw your attention to the “No Engineer Left Behind” capable of positively influencing the vehicle design. program, which offers free training and STAR-CCM+ licenses to Engineers that The innovation that is driving this trend is “automation”. At its simplest level have recently lost their job as a result of the economic climate. If you know automation provides a stress free path from geometry import to engineering anyone in this position, please encourage them to participate in the program. simulation results. For generations of engineers, such as myself, who built careers and reputations on mastering the “blood, sweat and tears” approach to CFD (manually generating meshes for complex industrial geometries), this can seem a little disconcerting, however automation has good news here too. The overriding goal of automation is to free engineers from the repetitive and mundane tasks associated with preparing and running simulations, allowing Richard Johns them to spend more time analyzing engineering results and generating a constant Automotive Director stream of information to guide the design process, ultimately resulting in more CD-adapco innovative, better engineered, products. Rather than focusing on just a few design points, engineers have the opportunity, for the first time, to simulate entire design spaces. i EMAIL: [email protected] 03 vtm VTM SPECIAL REPORT Vehicle Thermal Management ..::INTRODUCTION Breaking News Aston Martin Chooses STAR-CCM+ for Vehicle Aerodynamics & Thermal Management PRESS RELEASE: New York & London, April 15, 2009 CD-adapco is pleased to announce that Aston Martin, the British manufacturer of prestige luxury sports cars, will use STAR-CCM+, CD-adapco’s technology leading CFD simulation tool, for the simulation of aerodynamics and vehicle thermal management.

  • From Quattro to E-Tron
    Audi MediaInfo Audi motorsport history From quattro to e-tron Audi positions itself as the sportiest manufacturer in the premium segment and has a perfect basis to do so: motorsport. Sportiness, advanced technology and emotive design are the basis for the success of the Audi brand. The genes for this have their origin in racing – since 1980. The success story began with the Audi quattro Excluding the era before the Second World War including the legendary Auto Union Grand Prix race cars in the 1930s, the motorsport history of AUDI AG began with the Audi quattro. The dominant victories and two manufacturers’ and two drivers’ titles achieved with the “original quattro” in the World Rally Championship between 1982 and 1984 were an important factor in the market success of quattro drive. quattro victorious in circuit racing as well After Audi had turned rally racing upside down and stormed up Pikes Peak (USA) with the Sport quattro in record time on three successive occasions, Audi made quattro drive fit for circuit racing as well: initially with the Audi 200 quattro and the Audi 90 quattro IMSA GTO in the United States, in 1990 and 1991 with two championship titles for the Audi V8 quattro in the German Touring Car Championship (DTM) – and ultimately also with the A4 in the production- based super touring cars. In 1996, the Audi A4 quattro won championship titles in seven countries. Between 2012 and 2016, the all-wheel drive system returned to the race track as the e-tron quattro.

  • Using the Adventures of a Comic Book Motorsports Hero As an Approach To
    SPORT IN HISTORY, 2017 https://doi.org/10.1080/17460263.2017.1358655 Engines at top speed! Using the adventures of a comic book motorsports hero as an approach to understanding recent French history Sébastien Laffage-Cosniera, Noemi García-Arjonab and Christian Viviera aU-Sports Besançon, University of Franche-Comté, Besançon, France; bUFR STAPS Rennes, University of Rennes 2, Rennes, France ABSTRACT Jean Graton created a series of comic books called Michel Vaillant, and its motorsports hero bore the same name. Michel Vaillant made his first appearance in 1957 in the weekly Tintin. Young French boys who loved adventure, sports and car racing greeted this publication with great enthusiasm. We studied the first series of Michel Vaillant, composed of 16 comic books produced in the 1960s. We have departed from traditional approaches and have based our method on the analysis of the sources of Graton’s inspiration. We link these sources to the comics’ text bubbles, visual signs and iconic meanings of the drawings. Our analysis of the comics’ iconography based on the establishment of a mass culture dedicated to the automobile brings to light the existence of an urge to go beyond the limits of tradition. Our research highlights that the success of Michel Vaillant is due, in the main, to the series’ detailed knowledge of the automobile sports industry, and to the myths of speed, youth and progress that it promulgates – myths in which its young male readers could see themselves reflected and which would also prepare them for the future. Introduction In 2002, the Sport & Comics Exhibition was held at the International Festival of Comics in Angoulême, France: the Ninth Art had included sport.1 Some time after this, university studies were published which analysed the represen- Downloaded by [Australian Catholic University] at 05:19 25 September 2017 tation of sport in the most well-known comic books.

    DOSSIER DE PRESSE 1 MICHEL VAILLANT A MONACO Grimaldi Forum Monaco Espace INDIGO (Entrée libre et gratuite) Du 4 au 9 mai 2017 Cette exposition a pour but de rendre hommage aux deux plus grands mythes de l’histoire automobile que sont Monaco et Michel Vaillant. En effet, au même titre que l’oeuvre de Jean Graton, Monaco est devenu un symbole mythique de la course auto. Le Grand Prix de Monaco ou le Rallye Monte-Carlo ont apporté au sport automobile des lieux-culte, associés à d’inoubliables exploits humains. Ces théâtres de la dramaturgie de la compétition automobile ont été représentés par Jean Graton tout au long de son oeuvre Michel Vaillant, devenue en soixante ans, la bande dessinée culte de l’aventure automobile. Monaco fut représenté maintes fois par Jean Graton dans les aventures de Michel Vaillant. On peut observer, au fil des 70 albums des exploits du plus célèbre pilote de la BD, l’évolution du circuit le plus célèbre du monde. Le voyage est fantastique, car ce regard croisé entre un lieu et une oeuvre offre une vision originale, créative, artistique et technologique d’une aventure sportive et artistique. L’exposition présentera dans l’Espace Indigo : 20 planches originales et 20 Art Strips, dans une scénographie originale Définition des Art Strips chez Michel Vaillant : En manipulant les planches originales de Michel Vaillant, Dominique Graton, Directrice artistique de la Fondation Jean Graton, a été interpellée par le fait que la bande dessinée est le seul art où l’on réduit le travail de l’artiste pour le publier.
