driving resistance - Opis:
- The climate of our planet is changing, which, scientists believe, is caused by the production of greenhouse gases (GHG). To stabilize the concentrations of those gases in the atmosphere, it is necessary to decrease their production. Since transport is one of the major sources of GHG emissions, the most obvious solution is to decrease fuel consumption by vehicles. The amount of fuel used by a vehicle depends directly on the force of driving resistance, including rolling resistance and air resistance. The aim of the article is to indicate one of the easiest possibilities of decreasing these resistances. A small change in the shape of a vehicle’s frontal area leads to a significant reduction in air resistance.
