The capstone course sequence features a large, multi-year project that may nothave 3D modeling components of similar complexity for all students. The project ensures thatall students are assessed using a similar project. The geometric model is designed to support thecreation of a physical prototype that may be used for airflow development models. Models areprinted using filament deposition printing techniques. The solid model also supports the use ofvirtual airflow analysis using computational fluid dynamics
