Research on Aerodynamic Performance Optimization and Drag Reduction of mid-sized SUV on CFD

With the increase of vehicle ownership, the environment and energy issues are highlighted, and reducing vehicle wind resistance has become the key to improving fuel economy. Based on the theory of fluid mechanics and project development experience, this paper develops a medium-sized SUV model for wind resistance reduction. Through the simulation modeling of the vehicle's external flow field, the proportion model wind tunnel test and the optimization scheme research of the exterior shape, the bottom of the vehicle and the engine room, the wind resistance is significantly reduced. Combined with the wind tunnel test results, the actual contribution of each local optimization scheme is verified, and the EGO algorithm is used for further optimization to further reduce the wind resistance coefficient. This paper summarizes the key parts and regularity experience of the aerodynamic drag reduction of the medium-sized SUV model, providing guidance for the development of high-precision vehicle performance in the future. The research methods and results of this paper are of great significance for improving the aerodynamic performance and fuel economy of vehicles.
