Team Origin, Challenger for the next America's Cup
Cape Horn Engineering is the sole CFD provider for this campaign, running both the hydrodynamic and aerodynamic CFD programme.
The Team Origin design team, headed by Juan Kouyoumdjian, relies entirely on our simulations.

Ericsson Racing Team, 2008/9 Volvo Ocean Race
Cape Horn Engineering has done all of the CFD for this campaign. Following his success in the previous edition of the Volvo Ocean Race, Juan Kouyoumdjian is the lead designer for this 2 boat program. This campaign design team also relies exclusively on our aerodynamic and hydrodynamic simulations, with no need for towing tank tests.

TEAM ABN AMRO, 2005/6 Volvo Ocean Race
During 2004 and 2005, Rodrigo Azcueta was in charge of the hydrodynamic CFD for the campaign's 2 boats entered in the race. ABN Amro One won the overall race victory, while ABN Amro Two broke the world 24 hour distance record. Juan Kouyoumdjian was the lead designer.
BMW Oracle Racing Team, 32nd Americas Cup Challenger
From December 2003 to May 2007 Rodrigo Azcueta ran the main hydrodynamic CFD design effort for this challenger. The focus was on hull and appendages performance, mostly using free surface simulations. Extensive validation of the numerical methods was done during this period.
