内容説明・目次
内容説明
Aerodynamics is a science in itself, and is one of the most important factors in modern competition car design. This new book, a successor to "Competition Car Downforce", covers all aspects of aerodynamics, including both downforce and drag. This complex subject is explained in down-to-earth terms, with the aid of numerous illustrations demonstrating how aerodynamic devices work. Aimed primarily at amateur and semi-professional designers and drivers, as well as students, this fascinating book will also appeal to armchair enthusiasts wishing to gain a better understanding of the subject.
目次
How aerodynamic forces are generated, drag and lift, aerodynamic efficiency and three-dimensional flow. An explanation of how CFD can be used to improve aerodynamic performance. An explanation of aerodynamic devices, including spoilers, airdams and splitters, wings and underbodies, turning vanes, vortex generators, etc. Determining aerodynamic performance using flow visualisation, data logging, wind tunnels and scale model testing. Case studies from various motorsport categories, including interviews and discussions on how competitors and teams use aerodynamic devices and what benefits they have gained.
