Numerical and experimental study on the effect of cab-extender on the flow characteristics of a tractor-trailer

The aerodynamic drag on trucks can be reduced by use of active and passive techniques. In this work a passive method of using a cab-extender that is attached to the rear of the tractor is attempted. This cab-extender will help in reducing the drag force that act on the truck by minimizing the gap be...
