The aerodynamics of a F1 rear wing<\/h1>\n

CFD explained in Motorsport<\/h2>\n

A CFD analysis of 2017 Red Bull<\/strong> has been performed. The CAD model has been donwloaded from GrabCad<\/a>, with the geometry which has been consequently fixed for meshing purposes.<\/p>\n

The components of a rear wing of a F1.<\/h3>\n

The rear wing of a F1 has the aim to generate downforce to counterbalance the downforce produced by the front assembly. In fact, the force distribution alongside the vehicle determines the overall balance of a car. The rear wing of a F1 generates about ~10% less downforce<\/strong> than the front wing. In fact, the rear wing works differently from the front wing:<\/p>\n
