Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) study of a rear spoiler fitted to sedan car / Mohd Aliff Mohd Nor.

Aerodynamic forces are important aspects that need to be considered in the study of a road vehicle design. The present study focuses on the effect of rear spoiler fitted on a sedan car at different angles of attack with reference to drag and lift coefficient. The aim of this project is to compare th...
