In the following sections, we will first overview the impact of friction on energy and the environment and then concentrate on recent and emerging coating technologies that, when implemented, can further reduce friction and other parasitic losses and, hence, fuel consumption in engines.
4 Μαρ 2017 · The forces that a moving vehicle must overcome are the tire rolling resistance, the driveline friction, elevation, vehicle acceleration changes, and also aerodynamics. Let us assume that the vehicle moves along a flat surface at a constant speed and the external forces are limited to the tire friction and to the aerodynamic drag.
There are several factors that can greatly impact a car’s acceleration, handling, and fuel economy, but air resistance has the greatest impact at high speeds and on windy days. During this process, aerodynamics plays an important role, which can be attributed to its science.
20 Οκτ 2022 · The field of automotive aerodynamics involves examining the airflow around a vehicle. The goal is to diminish drag and wind noise and avoid unintended lift forces contributing to aerodynamic instability, particularly at high speeds.
1 Μαρ 2012 · By taking advantage of new technology for friction reduction in passenger cars, friction losses could be reduced by 18% in the short term (5–10 years) and by 61% in the long term (15–25 years).
5 Μαρ 2018 · 11,5 % of the energy is used to overcome friction within the engine and 5% within the transmission. That leaves 21,5 % of the fuel energy for moving the car, whereas 11,5 % is used to overcome rolling resistance and the remaining 10% is used to overcome air drag and for accelerating the vehicle.
Aerodynamic drag, sometimes called wind resistance, is an effect which a vehicle must overcome more and more as speed increases. Drag is a form of friction, though some of the air's effect on the vehicle is due to a low pressure zone behind the vehicle, and a high pressure zone in front.
