5、idelines for Aerodynamic Assessment of Medium and Heavy Commercial Ground Vehicles Using Computational Fluid Dynamics RATIONALE This document is created to provide guidance for computational aerodynamic simulations of medium and heavy commercial ground vehicles. 1. SCOPE This document outlines gener
6、al requirements for the use of CFD methods for aerodynamic simulation of medium and heavy commercial ground vehicles weighing more than 10 000lbs. The document provides guidance for aerodynamic simulation with CFD methods to support current vehicle characterization, vehicle development, vehicle conc
7、ept development and vehicle component development. The guidelines presented in the document are related to Navier-Stokes and Lattice-Boltzmann based solvers. This document is only valid for the classes of CFD methods and applications mentioned. Other classes of methods and applications may or may no
8、t be appropriate to simulate the aerodynamics of medium and heavy commercial ground vehicle weighing more than 10 000lbs. 1.1 Purpose The purpose of this document is to standardize the use of Navier-Stokes and Lattice-Boltzmann CFD for aerodynamic simulation for medium and heavy commercial ground ve
9、hicles weighing more than 10,000lbs and to guide CFD users to utilize CFD tools effectively and efficiently. The recommendations are grouped under three main sections; CFD Model Setup, Solver Setup and Data Processing and Communication. The Model Setup Section aims to address issues related to model
10、 preparation and physical accuracy. It explains what physical properties need to be modeled and how they need to be configured. The Solver Setup Section deals with appropriate solver selection and different options in turbulence modeling, boundary layer representation and discretization. The last se
11、ction, Data Processing and Communication, gives guidance about how the CFD results need to be presented and interpreted. The section also contains recommendations on information collection and processing related to CFD simulations. 1.2 Document Use This document is structured to service both the nov
12、ice and the expert user.

ASME V however, it is recommended that all geometric details are preserved to achieve
24、 high accuracy in the prediction of underhood airflow resistance. For a fully detailed model, the number of facets will typically be greater than 6 million. 6. DATA PROCESSING AND COMMUNICATION CFD Simulations generate substantial amounts of data. Extracting the correct values using appropriate meth
25、ods and creating a standard to compare CFD results from multiple resources reduces user error and improves confidence in evaluation efforts. This section talks about how results can be presented and interpreted. It also contains recommendations on information collection and processing related to CFD
26、 simulations. 6.1 Aerodynamic simulations are dependent on an accurate representation of the test article geometry. Acceptable geometric sources include CAD/CAE files and scanned 3D model data. The geometric resolution of the model needs to be reported with the CFD results. Models for deformable par
27、ts and add-on devices that may influence vehicle aerodynamics need to be modeled in their intended design shape. 6.2 STEP and IGES are acceptable file formats to transfer CAD models between different sources when original CAD model is not available. 6.3 Vehicle geometric model should be exported to
28、the applicable CFD software package with highest accuracy possible. 6.4 Each report needs to include basic information about the simulation: 6.4.1 Vehicle make, model and year information along with a description of geometry of the test article. 6.4.2 Short description of the simulation. 6.4.3 Offic
29、ial name/title, date, version number and vendor information of the software product. 6.4.4 Type of the software code (such as Navier-Stokes or Lattice-Boltzmann) 6.4.5 Description of simulation procedure. 6.4.6 Aerodynamic data along with reference values for frontal area and velocity used for norma
30、lizing the force data. For example, if wind averaged drag coefficient needs to be calculated according to the guidelines in SAE J1252. 6.5 It is recommended to document the results in CGNS (as defined in AIAA 98-3007) compatible format where native file format is not readable. 6.6 Certain variables
31、are required to be reported with each simulation: 6.6.1 Averaged force coefficients (drag, yaw, side, etc.) per case with averaging information (such as number of iterations or simulation time for the averaging calculations). 6.6.2 Drag coefficient history plots showing variation of the value during
32、 the computational simulation. Initial fluctuations in the force coefficients at beginning of the iteration process may be omitted. 6.6.3 Contours, streamlines, vectors and iso-surfaces for velocity and pressure as required. It is recommended to use averaged values for creating plots for known unste
33、ady flow regions (such as vehicle wake and tractor-trailer gap).

35、 ratio with an iso-surface plot. In general, turbulence viscosity ratio (TVR) values may be above 1000, but they need to remain below 1000 in the free stream region. 6.6.7 Check and report maximum velocity in the computational domain. In general, the maximum velocity needs to be below 150 m/s in mos
36、t cases. 7.

46、g3041g3439g2019g3036where n is the iteration number, and g2019g3036is the principal eigenvalue of the solution matrix of the linear system that could be calculated from: g2019g3036=g3557g3630g1829g1856g3036g3041g2878g2869g1829g1856g3036g3041g3630g3630g1829g1856g3036g3041g1829g1856g3036g3041g2879g286
47、9g3630The uncertainty g2012g3036g3047g3032g3045in iteration convergence can be estimated as: g2012g3036g3047g3032g3045=g3557g3630g2013g3036g3047g3032g3045,g3036g3041g3630g2019g3028g3049g30321where is any appropriate form, e.g., g1838g2998norm. g2019g3028g3049g3032represents an average value of g2019
48、g3036over reasonable number of iterations. If g2019g3028g3049g30321.0 , the resulting iteration error would not be a representative number. It is recommended to apply |g2019| 2 limiter to stay conservative when calculating g2019g3028g3049g3032. It is also recommended to have at least one order of magnitude smaller iteration error than the Grid Convergence Index (GCI) for each calculation.
