Abstract

Experimental, full-scale, time-accurate surface pressure testing of a passenger sedan vehicle was conducted. The structure of pressure fluctuations over the rear of a sedan is discussed; in particular, the large-scale unsteadiness observed from surface pressure measurements. Surface pressure periodicity has been investigated utilising spectral analysis techniques. Association of periodic pressure fluctuations with flow phenomena is also discussed.
