Influence of the rear part of the car body on aerodynamic interaction of vehicles
Vondruš, Jan ; Blaťák, Ondřej (referee) ; Vančura, Jan (advisor)
This diploma thesis is focused on CFD simulation of two platooning DrivAer cars with varying bodyworks. CFD models are made for bodywork variants Estateback, Fastback and Notchback, which are solved by k-epsilon turbulent model. Influence of rear body design on platooning and aerodynamics characteristics is analyzed.
Analysis of the effect of rotation of the wheels on the aerodynamic characteristics of the vehicle
Škrášek, Roman ; Čavoj, Ondřej (referee) ; Vančura, Jan (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with modeling and CFD calculation of aerodynamic characteristics of vehicle, influenced by loaded or unloaded tires and boundary conditions applied on this tires. These calculations are combined with three types of variable rear body shape of DrivAer vehicle. There is a complete analysis and evaluation of the effects of these factors.
Influence of vehicle radiator pressure drop on its aerodynamic drag
Pavlovič, Matúš ; Blaťák, Ondřej (referee) ; Vančura, Jan (advisor)
This diploma thesis focuses on numerical simulation of DrivAer vehicle model with different pressure losses of the radiator. CFD models of the vehicle in Estate body version for individual type of riadiator are created, together with a radiator and a simplified engine compartment. The aim of this work is to compare characteristics of conventional aluminium radiator with characteristics of polymeric prototype radiator and their impact on aerodynamic drag of the vehicle.
Aerodynamic interaction of autonomous vehicles
Opátová, Alexandra ; Čavoj, Ondřej (referee) ; Vančura, Jan (advisor)
This thesis deals with CFD simulation of platooning vehicles and their aerodynamic characteristics, created in Star CCM+ software. The main focus is on their aerodynamic drag dependency on different spacing between vehicles which allowed to evaluate the most energy efficient distance for platoon of vehicles. Furthermore, the procedure how to calculate the fuel consumption is described for set of variables.
