-IL-Solutions (The pictures are from the lecture handout)

a) Hatchback (the picture is of an estate but the rear flow is the same) The flowfield is dominated by flow separation at the upper edge of the rear window and the whole base flow I ss d

Saloon In a well-designed saloon car the flow stays attached along the rear window and

at the of the boot lid

Fastback In a fastback car the flow remains attached al

However this typically leads to two large counter-rotating vortices (for a bonus point)

b) bull Hatchback Large separation (at the roof line) but maximum internal volume (good

for short cars) Not the best drag coefficient because of the large separation bull Fastback Attached flow along the rear window but possibly with strong vortices

Not good for volume (boot space) but good to excellent drag coefficient Can have a lot of lift though which may require spoilers in performance cars

bull Saloon Attached flow along rear window and the boot lid Separation at rear of boot lid Can have vortices (but not as strong as fastback) Decent use of space through classical boot If well designed this can give very low drag values

c) The angle of the rear window slope is crucial At a slope of around 30degrees the flow changes from attached to separated

Typical angles for well-designed fastback shaped cars are around 20degrees

d) There is usually a degree of boattailing to reduce the base area and recover some pressure This means that the roofline drops slightly before the rear window and that the sides of the car are brought in

In addition a distinct separation lip can help to slightly improve the base pressure (and thus reduce drag)

Not good for volume (boot space) but good to excellent drag coefficient Can have a lot of lift though which may require spoilers in performance cars

bull Saloon Attached flow along rear window and the boot lid Separation at rear of boot lid Can have vortices (but not as strong as fastback) Decent use of space through classical boot If well designed this can give very low drag values

Typical angles for well-designed fastback shaped cars are around 20degrees

d) There is usually a degree of boattailing to reduce the base area and recover some pressure This means that the roofline drops slightly before the rear window and that the sides of the car are brought in

In addition a distinct separation lip can help to slightly improve the base pressure (and thus reduce drag)

Typical angles for well-designed fastback shaped cars are around 20degrees

d) There is usually a degree of boattailing to reduce the base area and recover some pressure This means that the roofline drops slightly before the rear window and that the sides of the car are brought in

In addition a distinct separation lip can help to slightly improve the base pressure (and thus reduce drag)

Saloon In a well-designed saloon car the flow stays attached along the rear window and

at the of the boot lid

Fastback In a fastback car the flow remains attached al

However this typically leads to two large counter-rotating vortices (for a bonus point)

b) bull Hatchback Large separation (at the roof line) but maximum internal volume (good

for short cars) Not the best drag coefficient because of the large separation bull Fastback Attached flow along the rear window but possibly with strong vortices

Not good for volume (boot space) but good to excellent drag coefficient Can have a lot of lift though which may require spoilers in performance cars

bull Saloon Attached flow along rear window and the boot lid Separation at rear of boot lid Can have vortices (but not as strong as fastback) Decent use of space through classical boot If well designed this can give very low drag values

c) The angle of the rear window slope is crucial At a slope of around 30degrees the flow changes from attached to separated

Typical angles for well-designed fastback shaped cars are around 20degrees

d) There is usually a degree of boattailing to reduce the base area and recover some pressure This means that the roofline drops slightly before the rear window and that the sides of the car are brought in

In addition a distinct separation lip can help to slightly improve the base pressure (and thus reduce drag)

Saloon In a well-designed saloon car the flow stays attached along the rear window and

at the of the boot lid

Fastback In a fastback car the flow remains attached al

However this typically leads to two large counter-rotating vortices (for a bonus point)

b) bull Hatchback Large separation (at the roof line) but maximum internal volume (good

for short cars) Not the best drag coefficient because of the large separation bull Fastback Attached flow along the rear window but possibly with strong vortices

Not good for volume (boot space) but good to excellent drag coefficient Can have a lot of lift though which may require spoilers in performance cars

bull Saloon Attached flow along rear window and the boot lid Separation at rear of boot lid Can have vortices (but not as strong as fastback) Decent use of space through classical boot If well designed this can give very low drag values

c) The angle of the rear window slope is crucial At a slope of around 30degrees the flow changes from attached to separated

Typical angles for well-designed fastback shaped cars are around 20degrees

d) There is usually a degree of boattailing to reduce the base area and recover some pressure This means that the roofline drops slightly before the rear window and that the sides of the car are brought in

In addition a distinct separation lip can help to slightly improve the base pressure (and thus reduce drag)
