The maximum wind speed in the wind tunnel is 265 km/h (approximately 164.7 mph). That maximum speed is more than the ...

Aerodynamic drag reduction remains a pivotal area in automotive design, balancing fuel efficiency with performance and safety. Advances in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling, experimental ...

Scientists in Europe researching aerodynamic forces have opened up some interesting new avenues of study inspired by fish scales. This new understanding of the flow patterns over the surface of the ...

Aerodynamic Drag The more aerodynamic an object is, the more smoothly it goes through the air since there will be less drag.

These resistant forces result from friction in mechanical components of the train and the aerodynamic drag of the moving train. As the average traveling speeds of trains have increased, aerodynamics ...

Utility Trailer Manufacturing has introduced the Utility Aerodynamic Tail, designed to improve fuel efficiency. When paired with low rolling resistant tires and configured on a Utility dry van or ...

AAs surprising as it may seem, this is a typical road load power required relationship to vehicle speed. As rolling resistance and aerodynamic loading increase, so does the amount of power required to ...

Adding aerodynamic devices to smooth airflow over the vehicle at highway speeds is a (relatively) cheap and easy way for fleets to improve fuel economy in long-haul tractor-trailer applications. But ...
