CFD PROJECT REPORT Submitted by Sai Yashwanth M IMPACT OF AERODYNAMICS ON AUTOMOBILES INTRODUCTION Aerodynamic forces are caused by the relative motion of automobiles with air and they cause: Drag (resistance to forward motion) Lift / down force (come into play during cornering and acceleration) Lateral forces (comes into play during cornering) Moments in roll‚ pitch and yaw As a result these factors have to be taken into consideration during automobile design. THEORY BEHIND AERODYNAMIC

DISCUSSION In this experiment‚ food samples such as coarse sugar and vegetable seeds were used to determine their flowability through hopper. For the first experiment‚ coarse sugar has higher measurement of flow rate compare to vegetable seeds. This result was reliable since the granular diameter of sugar was lower than vegetable seeds thus resulting a lower time consumed by coarse sugar to pass through hopper. However‚ as the orifice size was decreased‚ the flow rate was also decrease for both

When the gas rushes out of the balloon’s mouth it moves forward which starts a movement called thrust. Thrust requires both energy and direction. When the air moves out in one direction from the balloon‚ it flies in the opposite direction. This is an example to Newton’s third law of motion‚ "To every action there is an equal opposite reaction." The characteristics to explain that an Action Force results in a Reaction Force are that the two forces should be equal in magnitude. The two forces are in

DISCUSSION Part A: The effect of pressure head on maximum flow of gas for different size orifices For the orifices having different sizes but located at same level‚ the orifice 1‚ 2‚ 3 and 4 are having sizes of 0.5‚ 0.38‚ 0.28 and 0.1cm respectively. Based on the result obtained‚ the graph of Pressure Head vs. maximum flow rate for Orifice having different size but at the same level at a pressure for 1‚ 2 and 3 bar was plotted. Based on the graph obtained for all three different pressures‚ it

Educational Trip to UP Diliman and PHILVOCS On February 20‚ 2014 we‚ the 4th year students of BS Civil Engineering students of Don Honorio Ventura Technological State University (DHVTSU) had an educational trip on Laboratory of Civil Engineering department of UP Diliman and PHILVOCS. The purpose of this trip is to gain useful and helpful informations about our course‚ to learn how to use and operate laboratory equipment used in the field of Civil Engineering. The first part of the trip was

Homework Introduction to Aerodynamics Name: Natalie Hume 1. In your opinion what has been the most important development/invention in the history of aerodynamics and why? I feel that I could pick something very complex and technical for this question. But I think in terms of science and simplicity I pick Bernoulli’s principle. This principle laid the foundation for the development of aerodynamics. It allowed for people to understand the relationship between pressure and velocity and continue

Dry ultrafine classification equipment widely used in super fine crushing.Such equipment mainly include centrifugal classification and grading of inertia two types‚ the grading principle has a certain difference.The most common free cyclone and rotor type (turbine) air classifier.Here introduces four kinds of dry ultrafine classification equipment. The main Superfine classifier equipments are in the following: 1) free vortex type centrifugal classifier Although free vortex type centrifugal

In many places rock units can be described‚ grouped together‚ given similar characteristics‚ and placed into lithofacies. These lithofacies are important for interpreting the past depositional settings of the rock units. At the Cemex Quarry‚ we went through three stratigraphic columns‚ describing the different rock layers‚ and placed them into distinct lithofacies. The first lithofacies we described was of an Imbricated Clast-Supported Conglomerate. The first thing that stood out was the orientation
