| dc.description.abstract | The airflow distribution and non-uniformity across the radiator of
a full-size, Australian made Ford falcon was tested at the RMIT
Industrial Wind Tunnel. The cooling air intakes of the vehicle
were shielded by a quarter, one-half and three-quarters and fully
blocked. Four different possibilities of shielding methods were
investigated with the aim of determining the best method of
shielding to be employed. Results from these tests have shown
the optimum method for shielding the front-end of the vehicle in
terms of airflow uniformity to b the horizontal method followed
by the vertical method. These shielding methods also produced
the higher average airflow velocity across the radiator which is
analogous to better cooling. | en |
