CFD simulation drag force on golf ball / Mohd Rajali Jalal
The speed of golf balls can be regarded as the fastest in all ball games. The flying distance of a golf ball is influenced not only by its material, but also by the aerodynamics of the dimple on its surface. By using Computational Fluid Dynamics method, the flow field and aerodynamics characteristic...
