Side Pod Vane Development of Perrinn F1 Part 2

1. Side Pod Vanes

Base
Baseline (Perrinn F1 V13)




Type F
Type D based, short forward vane




Type G
Type D based, mid vane moved to upwards




Type H
Type D based, mid vane extended to backwards




2. Simulation Setup

Wind Speed: 50 m/s
Ride Height: 20mm/50mm (Front/Rear)
Solver: foam-extend-3.2 steady-state solver
Turbulence Model: Spalart Allmaras (+Rotation/Curvature Correction)

3. Forces



SCd = Frontal Area × Drag Coefficient
SCl = Frontal Area × Lift Coefficient
L/D = SCl / SCd
FrDF% = Front Downforce / Downforce
SCl_F = Frontal Area × Front Lift Coefficient
SCl_R = Frontal Area × Rear Lift Coefficient
Mass = Mass Flow Rate Passing Through Radiator
