Race car bonnet shape design based on flow analysis
Šnajdr, Petr ; Kvarda, Daniel (referee) ; Michalec, Michal (advisor)
The bachelor’s thesis deals with reducing aerodynamic drag of a pneumobile. The thesis summarizes knowledge in the field of vehicle aerodynamics and the principle of CFD simulations. The essence of the work is bonnet shape design of racing pneumobile Typhoon, developed at FME BUT, for lowest possible air resistance. CFD simulations are used to observe and analyse the influence of the bonnet shape on the aerodynamics properties. The designed shape solution of the bonnet significantly contributes to the reduction of aerodynamic drag compared to the existing bonnet. Thanks to this, the vehicle’s parameters are improved from maximum speed to the range. The acquired knowledge can also help in the further development of pneumobiles and in improving the setting of the computational model described in the work.
