The Aerodynamics of Flight

The creator of this video allows full use of its contents for educational purposes. geardownfs.com This video covers the basic aerodynamics that allow for all different types of aircraft to fly. Everything in this video should only be applied in theory flight simulation. I am not a real world pilot, and therefore cannot testify on behalf of the actual processes of real world aviation.

Reducing Aerodynamic Drag

Reducing a vehicle's aerodynamic drag can improve a car's fuel economy, say automakers. Not only can designers make it easier for a car to push through the air, automakers report drivers can also pull their weight by removing unused bike, ski or luggage racks off the vehicle's roof. Available video includes general views of the Chevrolet Volt and other aerodynamically designed cars, soundbites on improving fuel economy and an edited package on how to save on gas by reducing a car's wind resistance.

Inside a Formula 1 Car -- Aerodynamics

In Formula 1 races, aerodynamics are one of the most important elements to achieving great speeds. Formula 1 vehicles have smaller frontal areas to maximize the amount of power used to propel it, and decrease the amount of wind resistance encountered. The Panasonic Toyota Racing Team spends an estimated 8000-9000 hours a year developing the vehicle in specially-designed wind tunnels, as well as working on CFD, computational fluid dynamics -- a computer program used to unearth air flow patterns over the car.

Ford Focus on aerodynamics - Active Grille Shutter

Ford's all-new Focus has an ultra-slippery body shape that increases stability at speed and minimises fuel consumption. It's been honed to perfection in a huge wind-tunnel in Germany and features active technology that smoothes the airflow over the front of the car to cut drag. The Active Grille Shutter is just one of a multitude of drag-reducing features found on the all-new Focus. Other features include a completely sealed front end, optimised front wheel deflectors, a lower front deflector, engine undershield, streamlined door mirrors and care-ully crafted A-pillars which reduce both drag and wind noise.

Car Aerodynamics

Aerodynamics The principles which allow aircraft to fly are also applicable in car racing. The only difference being the wing or airfoil shape is mounted upside down producing downforce instead of lift. The Bernoulli Effect means that: if a fluid (gas or liquid) flows around an object at different speeds, the slower moving fluid will exert more pressure than the faster moving fluid on the object. The object will then be forced toward the faster moving fluid. The wing of an airplane is shaped so that the air moving over the top of the wing moves faster than the air beneath it. Since the air pressure under the wing is greater than that above the wing, lift is produced. The shape of the Indy car exhibits the same principle. The shape of the chasis is similar to an upside down airfoil. The air moving under the car moves faster than that above it, creating downforce or negative lift on the car. Airfoils or wings are also used in the front and rear of the car in an effort to generate more downforce. Downforce is necessary in maintaining high speeds through the corners and forces the car to the track. Light planes can take off at slower speeds than a ground effects race car can generate on the track. An Indy ground effect race car can reach speeds in excess of 230 mph using downforce. In addition the shape of the underbody (an inverted wing) creates an area of low pressure between the bottom of the car and the racing surface. This sucks the car to road which results in higher <b>...</b>

Autodesk Labs: Improving aerodynamic performance via Project Falcon

Project Falcon for Autodesk® Alias software is a wind tunnel simulator that seamlessly integrates with Alias allowing designers to interactively investigate the aerodynamic performance of their designs at any stage. Industrial designers can get intuitive simulation results for their designs in seconds with no specialist knowledge required. Simply launch Project Falcon and results appear immediately. Project Falcon makes use of a revolutionary new automatic meshing technology that can handle any geometry at any stage of design. Flow and wind pressure results update almost in real-time in response to changes in wind-direction and speed. These results can be used to improve design decision making much earlier in the process. This video shows how streamlining the roof of an automobile affects its aerodynamics. Check out labs.autodesk.com for more info.
