Aerodynamic Analysis on Proton Preve by Experimental

Article Preview

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to determine the coefficient drag, CD of the Proton PREVẾ by experimental method using Low Speed Wind Tunnel. All the relevant data are collected through the literature reviews from books and journals. First, the basic thing in aerodynamic is studied. There are two things are concern when studies aerodynamics. They were air flow and vehicle shape which we regard as aerodynamics factor that determine aerodynamic of the vehicle. Fundamental of air flow and vehicle shape is reviewed includes the relationship between air speed with pressure, boundary layer, Reynolds number, drag, lift drag and shape optimization. Wind tunnel is also studied before the experiment. Five selected speed were been tasted during the experiment to determine the CD value.
