Hybrid Electric Vehicle Car Body Drag Analysis using Computational Fluid Dynamics

open access: yes, 2017
Aerodynamics drag was considered for giving better efficiency for a car on the road. The development of drag on a vehicle body was studied. The main objective was to determine the maximum drag occurring on the car body drag of the hybrid electric vehicle

Drag Analysis from PIV Data in Speed Sports

open access: yes, 2016
Aerodynamic drag is computed from velocity measurements obtained with particle image velocimetry (PIV). This allows determining the drag force in combination with the visualization of the flow structures responsible for drag generation.

On-site drag analysis of drafting cyclists

open access: yesJournal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 2021
The aerodynamic drag of a trailing cyclists in a tandem formation is investigated at different lateral and longitudinal separations. A Ring of Fire (RoF) experiment is conducted at the Tom Dumoulin bike park of Sittard-Geleen in the Netherlands. The method is based on stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry (Stereo-PIV) measurements followed by ...

Aerodynamic Drag Analysis of Superpressure and Zero Pressure Balloons using Large Eddy Simulations (LES) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics
Stratospheric balloons are an essential part of the scientific research community. In previous stratospheric balloon models used for trajectory prediction and station-keeping, the aerodynamic drag has usually been modeled as similar to that of a sphere ...

A novel approach to calculating induced drag from computational fluid dynamics

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2021
Early aerodynamic mathematical methods rely on potential flow concepts that formally isolate aerodynamic drag into a profile and an induced drag component.

Modification in commercial bus model to overcome aerodynamic drag effect by using CFD analysis

open access: yesResults in Engineering, 2020
In India coach buses are generally used for long journey from 400 km to 600 km. Volvo B11R bus is widely used by private as well as state government players for its comfortable ride and luxurious feel. No engine is 100% economical so few other parameters

Analysis and development of novel data-driven drag models based on direct numerical simulations of fluidized beds

open access: yesChemical Engineering and Science, 2020
Drag force is essential to dense flows, but the accurate and robust drag model is still an open issue. Direct numerical simulations of a shallow and a deep bubbling bed of moving rigid spheres have been carried out in the present work by using an ...
