Recently reduce in fuel consumption and concern regarding the ground vehicle safety, automotive engineers are faced with the immediate task of introducing more efficient aerodynamic performance vehicles. Hence, the rear spoiler attached on the ground vehicle was presented. Rear spoiler is a device commonly found on road vehicle for improving their aerodynamic performance. Review on the research effects of the rear spoiler aerodynamic analysis on ground vehicle performance is reported in this paper. This review intends to enhance the stability and safety by attaching the rear spoiler on ground vehicle. The review mainly focus on aerodynamic analysis and control of the rear spoiler for different types ground vehicle in term of improving vehicle performance. Researches carried out by a number of researchers with regard to analyze and control the rear spoiler of ground vehicle and their effect on ground vehicle performance. Aerodynamic analysis i.e. computational fluid dynamics(CFD), design optimization, drag coefficient (Cd
) and lift coefficient (Cl
) and control methods i.e. passive control and active control had been reviewed. Meanwhile, progressive research on the rear spoiler aerodynamic analysis was observed due to its flexibility for wide range of application in the different type vehicles.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
