Abstract

Many research works had been carried out to study the aerodynamic behavior of different ground vehicles in order to enhance their stability and determine the aerodynamic forces acting on them. The present work focused on studying the aerodynamics of a bus model that resembles actual working buses. The study considered the pressure distribution around the bus model and determination of lift and drag forces acting. Two cases were considered; straight orientation of the bus model (i.e. parallel to the air stream) and when the bus model was yawed by an angle of 10˚ to the direction of air stream.
