Flow #cls TITLE DISPLAY The flow around a model Formula-1 racing-car is calculated by way of the velocity-potential method, which gives a solution rapidly, but which is realistic only for the forward part of the vehicle. SOLVE(POT) and the setting of POT [ i.e. the velocity potential ] to constant values at upstream and downstream boundaries of the domain activates the solution. A single sweep suffices; but it is necessary to use a large number of iterations in the linear-equation solver: liter(pot) = - 999. [The minus, combined with UWATCH = T and TSTSWP = 1, cause the progress of the convergence to be shown on the VDU]. The PHOTON USE commands show that the potential-flow solution predicts a pressure RISE at the rear of the vehicle which does not occur in practice.
