I was also thinking… Since the pressure drag comprises more than 90% of total trailer drag, a first option could be to consider all the vehicle’s walls as slip walls, and thus neglect the boundary...

Thank you very much Far for your advice and for these articles. You answered my question.

I will probably apply a slip condition to the walls where I don't compute the drag force. And try to use...

Thank you Far,
I understand your point and it is very useful to understand the difference between loss of accuracy and wrong physics. But just to be sure: how y+ can be equal to 0? If I have...

Drag prediction and wall boundary condition

Hello everyone,
I’m modeling a semi-trailer truck with a drag reducing device on it (trailer skirts). I want to compute the drag coefficient of the underbody and skirts.
I am doing a hybrid mesh...
