Today?s demand of reducing the fuel consumption of vehicles is one of the most challenging issues within the automotive industry. Together with the increased fuel price, the development of more fuel efficient vehicles has escalated. A recent research about fuel reduction technologies for trucks showed that aerodynamic improvement is one of the most important technologies when it comes to fuel saving. C.F.D is useful for designers of vehicles to improve the aerodynamic characteristics. C.F.D methodology can be involved in the construction of GEOMETRY as per the given dimensions, assigning the tetrahedral hypothesis by number of divisions of components during the mesh. In CODE SATURN physical conditions of truck can be given along with the calculation features. In PARAVIEW the flow visualization can be analyzed.
