ANALISA AERODINAMIS PADA BODI MOBIL KATEGORI URBAN CONCEPT MENGGUNAKAN CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics)

Recently, aerodynamic is mostly known to be applied on aircraft fuselage but; in fact, it can be also utilized on vehicles especially car. Car body is the most important part of vehicle design where aerodynamic efficiency can be maximized. Design of car body in this research is simulated by using Autodesk CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic). The use of this software is to know air flow on the body as simulation. From this simulation, turbulence is too high. Therefore, it is needed additional body kit (accessories). Additional body kit on the front and on the side are to minimize air flow turbulence on the body. It aimed to minimize drag coefficient as minimum as possible. Result of simulation shows that drag coefficient (CD) is 0,3216535
