  1. 26. Subjective perception and prediction model of vehicle stability under aerodynamic excitations

    Författare :Arun Kumar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; human-vehicle interaction; prediction model; drivability; unsteady aerodynamics; Driving simulator; driver perception.; vehicle stability;

    Sammanfattning : The current automotive era is moving towards electrified vehicle propulsion. As a result, an energy efficient vehicle design becomes one of the top priorities. From an aerodynamics point of view, the vehicle should be more streamlined for minimal aerodynamic drag. LÄS MER

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

    Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER

  4. 28. Investigation of Aerodynamic Resistance of Rotating Wheels on Passenger Cars

    Författare :Alexey Vdovin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wheel forces; ventilation resistance; rim design; aerodynamic moment; wheel aerodynamics;

    Sammanfattning : With the current conditions of rising fuel prices and the toughening of environmental legislation for CO2 and other emission gases, vehicle manufacturers around the world are looking into the ways to make their vehicles more energy efficient and therefore more environmentally friendly. One of the ways to achieve this goal is to improve aerodynamic design of vehicles in order to decrease aerodynamic resistance forces. LÄS MER

  5. 29. Numerical and Experimental Investigations on Aerodynamic and Thermal Aspects of Rotating Wheels

    Författare :Alexey Vdovin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ventilation resistance; wind tunnel; brake cooling; ride height; aerodynamic moment; CFD; rim design; vehicle aerodynamics;

    Sammanfattning : With todays and future environmental legislations for CO2 and other emission gases, all vehicle manufacturers are forced to further develop tools and methods to make their vehicles more energy efficient and environmentally friendly. One option to achieve this is to reduce the aerodynamic resistance since it has a significant influence on the vehicle fuel consumption, especially for velocities higher than 50 km/h. LÄS MER

  7. 30. Unsteady Numerical Simulations and Reduced-Order Modelling of Flows around Vehicles

    Författare :Jan Östh; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reduced-Order Modelling; Numerical Simulations; Large Eddy Simulation; Vehicle Aerodynamics;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis several simulations have been carried out aimed at improving the knowledge of vehicle aerodynamics and improving the flow around vehicles with respect to theaerodynamic drag. Five flows around different simplified vehicle models have been considered in five appended publications. LÄS MER
