Numerical analysis on the effects of air flow in the wake of a large vehicle on trailing a passenger car

This study focuses on the relative values of drag and lift forces acting on a passenger trailing a large vehicle (drafting) under unsteady conditions. The simulation is conducted using FLUENT CFD software for a two-dimensional flow domain at Re 3.65x106 for a trailing distance of 0 to 30 meters. The...
