Study of Aerodynamic Flow Processes Around The Ahmed Body and Validation Against Experimental Data For a 35 Base Slant

Objective: Objective: The shape of a car body in-front of the largest cross-section has only minor influence on the total drag. The main contributions to the drag force originate from the rear part of the body. A drag breakdown reveals that 85% of body drag is pressure drag, most of which occurs at the rear end. The rest 15%…
