Ground effect aerodynamics research on racing cars
Inverted wings and diffusers are aerodynamic components typically employed on modern racing cars to generate downforce and thus improve the handling characters of the car. They are among the most efficient aerodynamic components. Recent studies at the University of Southampton have cast light on complex flow regimes associated with those force generating components and governing physics.

Abstract

Inverted wings and diffusers are aerodynamic components typically employed on modern racing cars to generate downforce and thus improve the handling characters of the car. They are among the most efficient aerodynamic components. Recent studies at the University of Southampton have cast light on complex flow regimes associated with those force generating components and governing physics.
