Analysis of Effects of Rear Spoiler in Automobile Using Ansys [ ]


Aerodynamic characteristics of a Honda civic car 2009 are of significant interest in reducing car-racing accidents due to wind loading and in reducing the fuel consumption. Even though these vehicles typically have a more rigid chassis and a stiffer suspension to aid in high-speed maneuverability, a spoiler can still be beneficial. One of the design goals of a spoiler is to reduce drag and increase fuel efficiency. Many vehicles have a fairly steep downward angle going from the rear edge of the roof down to the trunk or tail of the car. Reducing flow separation decreases drag, which increases fuel economy; it also helps keep the rear window clear because the air flows smoothly through the rear window.
