| Abstract [eng] |
This study is about creating a design and aerodynamic simulation of race car aerodynamic components and also the use of alternate materials in car body construction. The main objective of this work is to maximise the amount of performance by enhancing the aerodynamic characteristics of the race car. This is done by designing improved race car wings. The aerodynamic efficiency of the designed racecar wings is analysed using flow simulation in SolidWorks. The second stage of the study is about the use of alternative materials instead of the existing ones and this is done by analysing the designed racecar wings for strength and rigidity using different materials. The structural studies were carried out using SolidWorks Simulation. |
