A Numerical Study on the Flow around Automobile

자동차 주위의 유동에 관한 수치해석적 연구

Conventional aerodynamic simulations have carried out by using Supercomputer and over a hundred grid point or wind tunnel experiment. It takes s long time to get a result. This paper has dealt on flow characteristics of automobile in the flow field. CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) has been able to apply to industrial field in these days. This new method has been applied to the aerodynamic simulation system, a designer has been able to carry out the practical on early designing phase of automobile. This paper has been focused on the necessity of rear-spoiler, the peculiarity of aerodynamic drag, and the level of drive safety.
