摘要:This paper deals with aerodynamic simulation of an existing Tata 1613 truck in ANSYS FLUENT. The original truck was modelled in CATIA V5 analyzed for coefficient of drag and hence the drag force and fuel consumption was determined. The truck was then modified and reanalyzed for the same. The results seem promising and a reduction in drag force and hence fuel consumption was reduced by 43%.
