【 摘 要 】

Aerodynamic characteristics directly affect the dynamics, economy, control stability and ride comfort of automobiles. In this paper, the FLUENT software is applied to analyse the automobile aerodynamic performance considering the influence of different tire width and ground clearance in order to enhance the automobile fuel economy so as to provide reference for the design of the automobile body shape.
