[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of the global automobile industry, new energy vehicles have become the focus of research and development of major automobile companies around the world. As one of the important indicators of electric vehicles, cruising range has always been the focus of consumers. In addition to the power battery capacity, vehicle weight and rolling resistance, aerodynamic resistance is also one of the main factors that determine the cruising range of electric vehicles. Especially when the car is driving at high speed, aerodynamic resistance accounts for more than 70% of all driving resistance. Therefore, reducing the drag coefficient and reducing aerodynamic resistance is one of the more effective means to increase the cruising range of electric vehicles.
[0003] When existing new energy vehicles are traveling at high speeds, the airflow outside the vehicle body will flow along the surface of the vehicle body. However, the vehicle is a non-infinitely extended structure, so the airflow sticking to the surface of the vehicle body will flow separated at the rear of the vehicle body, forming vortex patterns of different sizes and regularity. The larger the vortex at the rear of the vehicle body and the closer it is to the surface of the vehicle body, the greater the drag force generated by the vortex at the rear, resulting in greater wind resistance of the entire vehicle, affecting the vehicle's range.

[0031] Example 1
[0032] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3The utility model provides a vehicle wind resistance reduction device, comprising a vehicle body 1 and an air duct 2, wherein the vehicle body 1 is arranged in a long strip shape, and the vehicle body 1 has a head in the forward direction of vehicle travel and a tail in the backward direction of vehicle travel, the air duct 2 is opened on the vehicle body 1 and arranged along the length direction of the vehicle body 1, the air duct 2 has an air inlet 3 and an air outlet 4, the air inlet 3 is arranged on the side of the vehicle body 1, and is used to introduce the high-speed airflow on the side of the vehicle body 1 into the air duct 2, and the air outlet 4 is arranged at the tail of the vehicle body 1, and is used to introduce the high-speed airflow in the air duct 2 into the tail of the vehicle body 1.
[0033] When the vehicle is traveling at high speed, the high-speed airflow that is in contact with the side of the vehicle body 1 enters the air duct 2 through the air inlet 3 arranged on the side of the vehicle body 1, and the high-speed airflow on the side of the vehicle body 1 is discharged from the air outlet 4 along the air duct 2 and introduced into the rear of the vehicle body 1. At this time, the high-speed airflow flowing out of the air outlet 4 of the air duct 2 will impact the vortex at the rear of the vehicle body 1, thereby reducing the vortex at the rear of the vehicle body 1, reducing the range of the vortex at the rear of the vehicle body 1 when the car is traveling at high speed, and at the same time making the vortex at the rear of the vehicle body 1 away from the surface of the vehicle body 1, thereby effectively reducing the wind resistance of the vehicle when traveling at high speed and improving the endurance.
[0034] At the same time, from the visual perspective of the entire vehicle shape, the setting of the air duct 2 is conducive to the design space of the side and rear of the vehicle body 1, and it is easier to form the innovative features of the newly developed vehicle model. At the same time, when the weather is bad, the setting of the air duct 2 can introduce the high-speed airflow on the side of the vehicle body 1 when the vehicle is driving at high speed into the rear of the vehicle body 1, thereby alleviating the dust pollution at the rear of the vehicle body 1.
[0035] Specifically, the inner wall of the air duct 2 is set to be streamlined. Considering that if the inner wall of the air duct 2 is an irregular curved structure, the high-speed airflow will not flow smoothly in the air duct 2, which will cause diversion pressure loss and increase wind resistance, and will also increase the manufacturing mold cost; the setting of the streamlined air duct 2 can smoothly transition the high-speed airflow introduced from the air inlet 3 to the air outlet 4 when the vehicle is traveling at high speed, thereby reducing the wind resistance of the high-speed airflow in the air duct 2. In addition, the length of the air duct 2 can be set to 800m, and can also be adjusted according to the differences in vehicle models. Within a reasonable range, the length of the air duct 2 is set to the minimum.
[0036] The air inlet 3 can be set below the triangular window 8 on the side of the vehicle body 1, and the horizontal distance between the air inlet 3 and the end point on the bottom side of the triangular window 8 closest to the head of the vehicle body 1 is 40 mm, so that there is a gap between the air inlet 3 and the seam line 7 of the rear door of the vehicle body 1, so that the setting of the air inlet 3 will not be affected by the rear door of the vehicle body 1. The shape of the air inlet 3 can be set to an ellipse with a length of 250 mm extending along the length direction of the vehicle body 1 according to the side shape of the vehicle body 1.
[0037] Furthermore, since the side of the vehicle body 1 is streamlined, in order to better introduce the high-speed airflow flowing along the side of the vehicle body 1 into the air duct 2, the end point of the air inlet 3 toward the head of the vehicle body 1 extends toward the inside of the vehicle body 1. At this time, the end point of the air inlet 3 toward the head of the vehicle body 1 is set to be concave, so that the end point of the air inlet 3 toward the rear of the vehicle body 1 is relatively close to the end point of the head of the vehicle body 1 and protrudes out of the vehicle body 1. The distance between the end point of the air inlet 3 toward the head of the vehicle body 1 and the axis of the vehicle body 1 is set to L1, and the distance between the end point of the air inlet 3 toward the rear of the vehicle body 1 and the axis of the vehicle body 1 is L2. L1 is smaller than L2, and there is a difference of 10mm between L1 and L2, so that when the vehicle is traveling at high speed, the high-speed airflow on the side of the vehicle body 1 can enter the air duct 2 more to impact the vortex at the rear of the vehicle body 1, further reduce the wind resistance of the vehicle when traveling at high speed, and improve the endurance.
[0038] Reference Figure 2 and 3 As shown, a specific implementation is provided, a separation line 5 is provided between the rear of the vehicle body 1 and the side of the vehicle body 1 having the air inlet 3, and the air outlet 4 is provided between the separation line 5 and the side seam line 6 of the trunk lid at the rear of the vehicle body 1. Further, the air outlet 4 is located in the middle between the separation line 5 and the side seam line 6 of the trunk lid at the rear of the vehicle body 1, so that the air outlet 4 will not be affected by the trunk lid. At the same time, being provided in the middle of the two, the high-speed airflow in the air duct 2 can better impact the vortex at the rear of the vehicle, thereby reducing the wind resistance of the whole vehicle. At the same time, the shape of the air outlet 4 can be set to an elliptical shape or a circular shape, and a reasonable selection can be made according to the overall shape of the vehicle.
[0039] Furthermore, the air outlet 4 of the air duct 2 and the rear surface of the vehicle body 1 are transitioned by an arc 9 at the junction. The Coanda effect principle in fluid mechanics is cited to set the air outlet 4 of the air duct 2 into a notch shape with an arc 9. The radius of the arc 9 can be 15 mm. When the high-speed airflow in the air duct 2 is introduced into the air outlet 4, the high-speed airflow flowing along the inner wall of the air duct 2 will change the direction of the high-speed airflow at the arc 9, so that the high-speed airflow flows along the surface of the arc 9 and is dispersed along the surface of the arc 9 to the rear surface of the vehicle body 1 around the air outlet 4, thereby increasing the aerodynamic pressure at the rear of the vehicle body 1, further impacting the vortex at the rear of the vehicle body 1, reducing the vortex at the rear of the vehicle body 1, reducing the vortex range at the rear of the vehicle body 1 when the car is traveling at high speed, and keeping the vortex at the rear of the vehicle body 1 away from the surface of the vehicle body 1, further reducing the wind resistance of the vehicle when traveling at high speed, and improving the endurance.
[0040] Example 2
[0041] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, this embodiment provides a vehicle, including the vehicle wind resistance reducing device in embodiment 1. When the vehicle is traveling at high speed, the high-speed airflow that is in contact with the side of the vehicle body 1 enters the air duct 2 through the air inlet 3 arranged on the side of the vehicle body 1, and the high-speed airflow on the side of the vehicle body 1 is discharged from the air outlet 4 along the air duct 2 and introduced into the rear of the vehicle body 1. At this time, the high-speed airflow flowing out of the air outlet 4 of the air duct 2 will impact the vortex at the rear of the vehicle body 1, thereby reducing the vortex at the rear of the vehicle body 1, reducing the vortex range at the rear of the vehicle body 1 when the car is traveling at high speed, and at the same time making the vortex at the rear of the vehicle body 1 away from the surface of the vehicle body 1, thereby reducing the wind resistance of the vehicle when traveling at high speed and improving the endurance.
[0042] It should be noted that the various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referenced to each other.
[0043] The above is only a specific implementation of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
