Exa's PowerFLOW software – already used by almost all of the majorpassenger-car manufacturers around the world – as well as the company's previous experience gathered with the Ligier JS P2, were keyto Onroak Automotive achieving significant advances with its Ligier JS P3 racer. The collaboration also removed the need for costly and time consuming wind tunnel and track testing development work. TheLigier JS P3 is the latest example of PowerFLOW being used in the design and development of a race car. Speaking at the Ligier JS P3 unveiling, Stephane Letot, Exa Managing Director WesternEurope, stated: 'The simulations and predictions we made at an early stage with Onroak Automotive'sLMP2 race car have proved to be very accurate in relation to the real car on the track. Now, PowerFLOW has enabled OnroakAutomotiveand Exa's engineers to capitalize on that LMP2 work and perform airflow simulations both over the exterior and within the all-newLigier JS P3'scabin, engine bay and wheel arches – tests that you simply cannot do within the same cost and time constraints in a wind tunnel. Exa has enjoyed a highly productive relationship with the OnroakAutomotiveengineering team and thanks to our simulation-driven design, both partners are certain that the newLigier JS P3 will be a significant challenger for top honors in the new LM P3 race category.'
