  2. 1. Analysis of the Base Wake on Passenger Vehicles

    Author : Lennert Sterken; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pressure measurements; External aerodynamics; Wind tunnel; Wake; Local drag; CFD;

    Abstract : Car manufacturers are presented by a continuous increase in fuel prices and by ever more strict legislations regarding CO2-emissions. Decreasing the driving resistance and hence the fuel consumption of their vehicles helps to improvetheir market share. READ MORE

  4. 2. Analysis of the Unsteady Flow Field of a Passenger Vehicle

    Author : Lennert Sterken; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wind tunnel; Wake; CFD; Pressure measurements; Extensions; Yaw response; External aerodynamics; Aerodynamic forces;

    Abstract : Political legislation and consumer requirements for a sustainable society require that vehicle manufacturers focus on reduced fuel consumption and lower emissions. Areduction in the overall energy consumption can be directly linked to a decrease of the driving resistance, where the aerodynamic drag significantly contributes at velocities above 70km/h. READ MORE
