1. 1. Methods and Purposes of Aerodynamic Correlation in Formula Student

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

   Author : Alix Le Bastard; [2023]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This thesis investigates how methods of aerodynamic validation can assist a formula student team in designing their aerodynamic package. When de- signing their aerodynamic components, formula student team mostly rely on CFD software simulations, but there is no guarantee that the simulations de- pict properly the physical behaviour of the airflow around the car.

3. 2. Aerodynamic Concept Evaluation of Formula Student Side Structure

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Gabriel Ågren; [2023]
   Keywords : Formula Student; KTH Formula Student; race car aerodynamics; CFD; Multi-element wing;

   Abstract : Formula Student is a global engineering competition where university students collaborate to design, construct, and race formula-style cars. Aerodynamics is one aspect in the vehicle design that can improve on-track performance by increasing cornering and straight-line speed. READ MORE

4. 3. Experimental Investigation of the Aerodynamics of a Sailing Cargo Vessel with Four Rigid Wingsails under Unsteady Sailing Conditions

   University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

   Author : Antonia Hillenbrand; [2022]
   Keywords : Experimental Aerodynamics; Pressure measurements; Sailing; Scale model testing; Trimming; Sea trial; Experimentell aerodynamik; Tryckmätning; Segling; Testning av skalamodeller; Trimning; Sjöprovning;

   Abstract : Wind propulsion is a traditional way to propel ships over the oceans. In the recent development towards more sustainable shipping, sailing is considered in the industry again with high momentum. For a modern merchant ship, the aerodynamic forces generated on the particular rigging are unusual. READ MORE

5. 4. Numerical Study on Aerodynamic Drag Reduction on a Rear Wing of a Formula Student Car

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Mahim Ahsan; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The importance of aerodynamics in racing has increased substantially over the past decades. Racing vehicles utilize different aerodynamic devices, to redirect the airflow around the vehicle in a beneficial way. The increase in downforce using an aerodynamic wing package increases drag force. READ MORE

6. 5. Undertray Design and Development Procedure with CFD : An Optimization Study of Different UndertrayDesigns with CFD Computations

   University essay from KTH/Strömningsmekanik och Teknisk Akustik

   Author : Aaron Poutiainen; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Race car aerodynamics has played a vital part to improve lap times over the years of motor racing. Having good road adhesion with slick tires and aerodynamic downforce will increase the vehicles maximum lateral force and thus higher cornering speeds can be achieved. READ MORE
