Emerging trends in Automobile engineering

Types of Aerodynamics Drag in Automobile Engineering 1)  Form Drag (Pressure Drag) :- Form drag arises due to the vehicle's shape while in motion through the air, resulting from pressure disparities between its front and rear surfaces. Shaping the vehicle to mitigate sudden alterations in form and streamlining its design are effective strategies for diminishing form drag 2) Interference Drag :- Interference drag is caused by the interaction of airflow between different parts of the vehicle, such as between the body and wheels, or between the body and side mirrors. This interaction can create turbulence and increase drag. Designing vehicles with smooth transitions between components can help reduce interference drag. 3)  Wave Drag : Wave drag occurs when a vehicle approaches the speed of sound (transonic) or exceeds it (supersonic). At these speeds, shock waves form around the vehicle, creating high-pressure regions that increase drag. Streamlining the vehicle's shape and mi...

 What is Automobile Engineering?                 It is a branch of Engineering which deals with the various Engineering core branches like Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics, Software etc. I encompasses various aspects of Mechanical, Safety, Electrical Engineering principles to create efficient, reliable and safe vehicles. Lets have a look to a key components of Automobile Engineering :- Vehicle Design :-      This involves conceptualizing and designing the overall structure and components of a vehicle, including chassis, body, suspension, and aerodynamics. Designers aim to optimize factors such as safety, comfort, performance, and fuel efficiency. Powertrain Systems :-   The powertrain comprises the engine, transmission, and drivetrain components responsible for generating power and transferring it to the wheels. Engineers focus on enhancing power output, improving fuel economy, and reducing emissions through innovatio...
