Abstract:The aerodynamic characteristics of automobiles are greatly influenced by the unsteady change in the direction of relative airflow. The aim of this paper is to analyse how such a change influences vehicle wake flow patterns. An analysis was conducted on a simplified model capable of reproducing the typical structures encountered under the aerodynamic conditions of an automobile. The results were processed by mapping the steady and unsteady total pressure losses around the model. The findings should enable automobile development engineers inter alia to identify and analyse the physical phenomena that occur when a vehicle is subjected to a sudden gust of side wind.List of symbols B rod - l length of rod B (m) - lambda angle of rod B (degrees) - D disk - P connection point between disk D and rod B - M o drive motor of disk D - O centre of rotation of disk D - e radius of disk D (m) - theta angle of disk (degrees) - t moment of time t (s) - theta o angle theta (degrees) at instant of time t=0 - d diameter of model (m) - C centre of rotation of model - x c abscissa of centre of rotation C of model (m) - M connection point between model and rod B - pgr pi value=3.14159 - agr incidence of model (degrees) - agr M maximum value of incidence agr (degrees) - agr m minimum value of incidence agr (degrees) - Deltaagr angular amplitude (degrees) - agr c critical angle of incidence (degrees) for steady evolutions - $$ \alpha _{\rm{c}}^* $$ critical angle of incidence (degrees) for the unsteady evolutions - agr̄ mean angle of incidence (degrees) - beta angle (degrees) of the model such that beta=agr+pgr - ohgr pulse (rad s–1) - T period (s) - f frequency (Hz) - R radius of model in meter (m) - $$ \vec V_{\rm{o}} $$ velocity vector of incident airflow - V o intensity of velocity vector $$ \vec V_{\rm{o}} $$ (m s–1) - P io total pressure associated with upstream airflow velocity $$ \vec V_{\rm{o}} $$ (Pa) - P i local total pressure (Pa or J m–3) - rgr density (kg m–3) - C x drag coefficient - $$ C_{P_i } $$ total pressure coefficient - (m, n) dimensions of grid: lines m, columns n - x X coordinate of sampling plane (m) - y j Y coordinate of point of index j for jisin1,n] - z k Z coordinate of point of index k for kisin1,m] - P i (x,y j ,z k ,agr(t)) continuous data of unsteady total pressure (Pa) - $$ P_i^* \left( {x,y_j ,z_k ,\alpha ^* \left( t \right)} \right) $$ discrete data of unsteady total pressure (Pa) - N number of tomographic images, from 1 upwards over an oscillation period T - $$ C_{P_{i\max } } $$ maximum value of total pressure coefficients for steady evolutions - $$ C_{P_{i\max } }^{*\, + } $$ maximum value of total pressure coefficients for unsteady evolutions and increasing incidences - $$ C_{P_{i\max } }^{*\, - } $$ maximum value of total pressure coefficients for unsteady evolutions and decreasing incidences - $$ \Delta C_{P_{i\max } }^ + $$ differential between $$ C_{P_{i\max } } $$ and $$ C_{P_{i\max } }^{*\, + } $$ - $$ \Delta C_{P_{i\max } }^ - $$ differential between $$ C_{P_{i\max } } $$ and $$ C_{P_{i\max } }^{*\, - } $$ - phgr phase shifting (degrees)
