Abstract

The characteristics of the airflow that is formed around the vehicle body affects the value of the resistance acting on the vehicle. When it reaches the rear edge of the vehicle, the flow undergoes a process of separation. So modification of the vehicle body design that is able to reduce the separation is urgently needed. Flow engineering around the vehicle body can be obtained by modifying the shape which is considered more aerodynamic. Meanwhile, flow engineering can also be obtained through the application of an active control system in areas that are considered to have the potential to initiate flow eddies on the rear side of the vehicle and have a major influence on the formation of flow separation. This research aims to examine the impact of the application of flow control blowing technique on the resistance of the modeled vehicle. The geometric angle of the front wall is determined to be 35°. The research uses a numerical computational approach with a standard k-epsilon as a turbulence model. The upstream velocity applied is 13.9 m/s, while the blowing velocity is set at 0.5 m/s. The research results prove that the application of blowing flow control has succeeded in minimizing the formation of wake structures and has the effect of delaying separation and has succeeded in reducing the aerodynamic drag coefficient to 9.3187%.

Abstract

Vehicle stability when driving is an issue that needs attention because it relates to comfort in driving and the effectiveness of fuel consumption. This is caused by the large aerodynamic drag force of the vehicle due to the structure of the air flow which flows regularly and experiences separation when it reaches the rear end point of the vehicle. This separation of the flows causes significant negative pressure on the rear window due to the return flow which does not follow the shape of the vehicle body. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of implementing active control of blowing type flow on vehicle models on aerodynamic drag. This study applies a numerical computational method with a modified Ahmed body model as the main object of research. The active blowing control is placed at the rear end of the model which is considered the initial separation area. Blowing speed was varied 0.2 m/s, 0.8 m/s, 1.5 m/s, and 2.0 m/s and was tested at an upstream speed of 16.7 m/s. Research results indicate that the application of active blowing control has succeeded in providing a delay in separation effect, reducing turbulence and reducing aerodynamic drag by 8-9%.

Abstract

Abstract: Experimental Study of the Effect of a Mixture of Ethanol and Pertamax on Fuel Consumption of a 125cc Injection Motorcycle. Currently the need for petroleum is quite high. This is because transportation and industry still rely on petroleum as the main fuel. Ethanol has similar properties to Pertamax fuel which can be applied to every vehicle, especially two-wheeled vehicles. The aim of this research is to find out how the addition of ethanol to Pertamax fuel affects the amount of fuel consumed by injection motorbikes. The mixture percentages that will be tested are E10+P90, E20+P80, and E30+P70 respectively, and then the consumption results are compared with tests using pure Pertamax (E0+P100). The test results show that the use of Ethanol-Pertamax mixed fuel can be reduced when the percentage of the ethanol mixture is below 50%. Where the lowest fuel consumption is the E30+P70 mixture at 16.4% compared to pure Pertamax consumption.
