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 fully updated second edition 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, including colour CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) diagrams to demonstrate how aerodynamic devices work, as well as wind-tunnel studies. 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
Presented with a DVD explaining the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), produced in association with Ansys UK, one of the market leaders in CFD software. 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. Wind-tunnel case studies to back up the CFD data and graphics. 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. An addition to the series of titles including Competition Car Composites, Competition Car Data Logging, Competition Car Suspension and Competition Car Electrics.
