P.001 / Rebuild + Applied CFD
1995 Mercedes-Benz E320 — Engine Rebuild & Aerodynamic Analysis
Engine Rebuild · Fender Fabrication · ANSYS Fluent · RANS k-ε
Outcome: Completed a full top-end engine rebuild and custom fender redesign on my personal W124 E320,
eliminating all tire rubbing without compromising drivability. Then modeled the car aerodynamically in ANSYS Fluent —
a solo project in a course where most students worked in groups.
Hands-on mechanical work led directly to an academic question: what did my fender modification actually do to the aerodynamics? The simulation answered it.
