Özet

In this study, aerodynamic structures of the heavy vehicle consisting of truck and trailer was investigated with computational fluid mechanics method. The force measurement were performed on the model car and aerodynamic drag coefficient (CD) were determined numerically in 4 different speeds on the Fluent® program. Numerical analysis of flow were made on the 59 000 - 844 000 Reynolds number. The effect of trailer additional to truck was determined to aerodynamic drag coefficient. The friction and pressure induced distributions were determined of total aerodynamic resistance. The images of flow structure were obtained around the truck trailer. The zones that was forming aerodynamic resistance were determined
