Summary: | This report focuses on the design and CFD analysis and development of the outer
aerodynamic body of the solar car for Nanyang technological University entry in world solar
challenge 2011. Leveraging on the past development experience of Nanyang venture II and
experiences in World Solar Challenge 2009, this report aims to create high performance
aerodynamic body shell for Nanyang Venture 5 for World Solar Challenge 2011.
Aerodynamic performance of solar car is one of the major key performance parameter for
the efficiency of solar car. An aerodynamic efficient solar car can maintain a higher average
speed, using more power for locomotion than spending excessive amount of it to move
through the air. |
