In the commercial vehicle department at DaimlerChrysler, CFD is extensively used for many different design tasks in the development of trucks and commercial vans. Since simulation software has become available allowing fast and easy setup of aerodynamic models, computational aerodynamics is playing an important role in earlier stages of the design development process.
