SPORTS CAR ACTIVE SPOILER ANALYSIS BY USING COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS

Abstract

In this paper we can see the chapters which indicate specific effects in terms of vehicle handling, due to the generation of aerodynamic forces and momentums by using rear two-segment active spoiler on sport car example. The goal was actually to do the detailed CFD analysis of the fluid model of the active spoiler, and to form an acceptable control logic in accordance with the generated results. This way, we can influence important factors of interests in accordance with the currently predefined driving modes. The accompanying diagrams of the changes in the relevant parameters allows the execution of certain conclusions which refers to the sport vehicle handling and economy, inter alia.
