Analysis of active aerodynamics of a car with a two-section wing
The paper examines the problems of uneven load distribution on the rear wheels of racing cars due to the creation of a downforce by an active wing during high-speed turns. The main attention is paid to the analysis of the influence of centrifugal forces, which aggravate the load imbalance, and the need to develop new design solutions is substantiated. The concept of an active aerodynamic system with two independent wings, which contribute to the even distribution of the load between the rear wheels, is proposed. The operation of such a system was simulated in the SolidWorks environment using the Flow Simulation module. The prospects of studying the optimal parameters of the winglets to achieve a balance between downforce, air resistance and vehicle stability are shown.
