Renault F1 Team Extends Relationship with Fluent

Posted Thu June 24, 2004 @02:24PM

The Renault F1 Team has signed an agreement to extend and expand its relationship with Fluent Europe Ltd as an Official Associate Supplier.

The relationship between the two companies began back in 1993 under the Benetton F1 team, and continued after the Renault take over in 2000. FLUENT CFD software has played a key role in the aerodynamic design and development of the R24, one of the most competitive cars in the 2004 F1 World Championship.

FLUENT will work alongside the Renault F1 Team on two fronts, developing the R24 and its successors but also profiting from the relationship by using this cutting-edge environment to drive development of the FLUENT CFD software. The agreement will also see the Renault F1 Team increase the number of licences it holds for FLUENT CFD, thus enhancing the team’s CFD capacity.

Commenting on the new agreement, Bob Bell, Technical Director of the Renault F1 Team, commented: “The Renault F1 Team has earned a justified reputation for possessing one of the most innovative and effective aerodynamic departments in Formula 1, and FLUENT CFD software has proved invaluable in building this status. Computational Fluid Dynamics play a vital role in the development of a modern F1 car, and our expanded relationship with FLUENT will only serve to strengthen the foundations of our team’s success.”
