Performing External Aerodynamic Simulation On A Mercedes Benz Truck With & Without The Container By Designing A Wind Tunnel In STAR-CCM+ Software.
Abstract:- The work is focused on editing the Mercedes-Benz truck using the geometry editing tools available in STAR-CCM+, rotating the truck trailer to align with the truck & finally creating a wind tunnel of adequate dimensions. We will be running 2 simulations, one with the trailer & the other without a trailer. We will be making use of the "Surface Wrapping" technique to make sure the geometry is free from errors. Next, we set up the physics parameters & run the solutions. Finally, we will post-process the results.
