🧪 3D Golf Ball Dimples Aerodynamics

3D Aerodynamics of golf ball dimples: Comparing smooth and dimpled balls in a wind tunnel. The turbulent boundary layer delays flow separation, reduces scuffing & drag, so the dimpled ball flies further.

⚙ Under the hood

This simulation explores the aerodynamic effects of dimples on a golf ball's trajectory, illustrating how they reduce drag and increase lift. Users can adjust dimple patterns to see their impact.
