Crosswind Sensitivity of Road Vehicles
Vančura, Jan ; Dundálek, Radim (referee) ; Kaplan, Zdeněk (referee) ; Píštěk, Václav (advisor)
The aim of the thesis is to devise a methodology which is capable of reliable evaluation of road vehicle’s crosswind sensitivity. The work consists of writing the mathematical model of a vehicle which includes aerodynamic loads and conducting a validation by means of technical experiment as defined by ISO 12021. A sensitivity analysis describing the influence of individual inputs on evaluation criteria of vehicle’s crosswind sensitivity is performed using the model, thereby establishing the overall model error caused by possible inaccuracies of input parameters. At the end, the relationship between discrete pressures on the surface of the vehicle in several aerodynamic configurations and the properties representing the vehicle’s motion is presented.

Methods for determining aerodynamic properties of vehicles
Páleš, Patrik ; Blaťák, Ondřej (referee) ; Čavoj, Ondřej (advisor)
The aim of the bachelor’s thesis is a description of methods being used for measurements of aerodynamic characteristics of automobiles. The exact determination of the aerodynamic characteristics requires sophisticated testing equipment and advanced engineering procedures. The research comprises several approaches. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is based on turbulent models application such as RANS, LES and DNS. Pressure distribution on a vehicular body surface and an air flow along the vehicle are monitored in wind tunnels. Flow visualization is carried out by optical (PIV, LDA) and non-optical methods. Experimental road testing methods are focused on multiple parameters including a vehicle directional stability, its cross-wind sensitivity, engine cooling system and many others.

Aerodynamic characteristics of airfoils
Foltýn, Pavel ; Cejpek, Jakub (referee) ; Koutník, Tomáš (advisor)
This bachelor´s thesis describes an influence of geometric characteristics of an airfoil on its aerodynamic properties. The first part of the thesis defines airfoil, describes its geometric characteristics, emergence of aerodynamic forces and convection around airfoil. The second part deals with influence of profile geometry on aerodynamic properties of airfoils. It is shown on NACA four and six digit profiles, in their buoyancy and moment lines and polars. The last part deals with wind tunnels and measurement in them. The thesis focuses on forces and moments measurement by force balances and static and total pressure measurement. Velocity measurement is focused on the laser Doppler velocimetry, on the hot-wire velocity probe and PIV method. Very briefly selected flow visualization methods are shown there. Comparison of profile characteristic obtained by measuring in wind tunnels and numerical simulation in Xfoil program is also shown there.
