Measurable Improvements, Not Just Fine Words
In an age where achieving marginal gains is an obsession, the scale of performance improvements and the cost savings potentially achievable with iconCFD Platform® are significant. For example, this is what Koenigsegg Automotive told us about results achieved with our ICON Digital Wind Tunnel App available in iconCFD Platform®:

• 250% increase in downforce with only a 15% increase in drag
• 60% saving in prototyping costs
• 50% saving in wind tunnel/physical testing costs
• 30% saving in design costs
• 30% reduction in projected time to market
• 5% saving in operational costs
• 1.5% reduction in overall development costs

In summary, considering the iconCFD® options are better, faster, cheaper and easier, you have to ask why on earth would you want to pay more for something not as effective? Unless of course, you haven’t been given the choice.

In addition to software, we also provide CFD consulting, CFD training and CFD support services to help you resolve problems and increase independent capability.
