This study aims to design the configuration of an aerodynamic wing kit (AWK) on a racing motorbike to achieve the highest downforce-to-drag ratio. The numerical study involves a motorbike traveling in a straight line, where the AWK improves performance and safety by generating downforce to prevent lift. The geometry of the AWK uses a NACA 4412 airfoil with a span of 0.6 m. The computational mesh is generated using SnappyHexMesh and installed on a simplified motorbike to minimize the mesh skewness. The Navier–Stokes equations are solved with OpenFOAM CFD using the RANS k-ω SST and LES turbulence models. Case 1 compares a motorbike with and without a dummy, both equipped with the AWK varying the angle of attack (AoA) from 0 to -41 degrees. Case 2 studies the single wing at different wind speeds (i.e. 20, 60, and 100 m/s) to determine the highest downforce-to-drag ratio at an AoA of -37 degrees.

期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
