Numerical simulation of defogging on automotive windshield
Defogging is a process to eliminate fog or water vapour from a surface such as windshield.It is crucial to fundamentally understand the fogging and defogging phenomena in order to reduce potential vehicle accidents due to visibility problems.In this study, the numerical simulation of the defogging p...
