Adjoint methods for car aerodynamics
The adjoint method has long been considered as the tool of choice for gradient-based optimisation in computational fluid dynamics (CFD). It is the independence of the computational cost from the number of design variables that makes it particularly attractive for problems with large design spaces. Originally developed by Lions and Pironneau in the 70’s, the adjoint method has evolved towards a ...
متن کاملComputer simulation of PEC network
Interconnection network is a decisive component of parallel and distributed computer systems. With the merits of simplicity and eeciency, 2-dimensional (2-D) mesh has been a popular choice of large MIMD interconnection networks. Mesh, however, has its known weaknesses in scalability and connectivity. Packed Exponential Connections (PEC) is a newly proposed network which is designed to improve t...
متن کاملEffect of Vortex generators on Aerodynamics of a Car: CFD Analysis
Flow separation at the vehicle’s rear end is the major cause of an aerodynamic drag in a car. In order to delay the flow separation at the rear, bump-shaped vortex generators at the roof end of a car are tested in this paper for two different types of car models Sedan and Hatchback. The aerodynamic analysis is carried out using GAMBIT and FLUENT for Sedan and Hatchback models. Vortex Generators...
متن کاملComparison of Computational and Experimental Aerodynamics: Results for a WMU Solar Car Model
Three-dimensional numerical simulations using FLUENT [1] were performed to model the airflow over the Sunseeker, an award-winning solar car that was designed and built at Western Michigan University. Converged numerical solutions on three different grids are reported and compared with the available experimental data, which include the lift and the drag coefficients. Also reported are the result...
متن کاملexperimental investigation of the trailer wake effects on the aerodynamics of a car model
the aerodynamics of road vehicles has frequently been studied in simplified geometries to separate the effect of various components on aerodynamic drag and on near wake flow dynamics. in this work, the characteristics of the near wake of a notch-back car model were investigated, using hot-wire anemometer. the main objectives of this study are to gain a better understanding of the flow structure...
