This paper describes the design of an aerodynamics package of a Formula SAE car. Formula SAE rules 2014 pertaining to aerodynamics is used to design the aerodynamic package which includes the front & rear wings and the diffuser. The aerodynamic package is designed to produce maximum downward force...
One of the most dramatic examples of an aerodynamic device is aFormula 1racing car. It wasn't always so, in fact pre-1967 F1 cars made very little use of aerodynamics. The thinking at that time was to optimize cars for straight-line speed, i.e., minimizedrag. 1967 Honda Formula 1 C...
An Active Suspension for a Formula One Grand Prix Racing Car During 1982, Formula 1 racing cars generated very high downforces by the use of "ground effect" aerodynamics. Such cars required very stiff suspensions to ... J Dominy,DN Bulman - 《Journal of Dynamic Systems Measurement & Control...
Aerodynamic Study of the Different Spoiler Section Design used in Formula-SAE Cars Aerodynamics of a car plays a very important role in a racing car. That is why many race cars are designed to take advantage of aerodynamics. Improvement o... LB Rao - 《Sae Technical Paper》 被引量: 0发表...
Formula Student is an international engineering design competition, first held in 1979 by the Society of Automotive Engineers. Formula Student challenges university students to design, build, and race a formula-style car. Teams from various universities worldwide participate in this annual event, show...
Gain insight into the role of CFD in driving innovation and performance optimization in racing car design. Familiarize with the structure and functions of an Aero and CFD department in a Formula 1 team. Learn the key considerations in geometric modeling of race cars and its influence on aerodyna...
A modern Formula One car has almost as much in common with a jet fighter as it does with an ordinary road car. Aerodynamics have become key to success in the sport and teams spend tens of millions of dollars on research and development in the field each year.The aerodynamic designer has ...
