Simulation of an asteroid in 3D
by Atif Masood

Project Information

Simulation of an asteroid entering the earth's atomosphere is performed employing ANSYS CFX. It is observed that asteroid traveling at Mach 5.5 (hypersonic flow), caused aerodynamic heating and attained a surface temperature of more than 1700 °C. Simulation files are also attached for download. Original asteroid CAD model by Evan B (3dwarehouse.sketchup.com)
