He has a point when he says the sidepods don't create that kind of vortices. I encourage you though to keep up the work and slowly move towards a full and accurate F1 model. I encourage that because frankly you got me curious!
In reality the Y250 goes straight into the turning vanes (so a little more outward) and dies. Therefore its funcion must be fullfilled somewhere (and somehow) between the front wing and floor's leading edge.chuckdanny wrote:I think i miscalculated my y250 like vortex, it goes straight into the leading edge of the bargeboard... and die...
Wouldn't that be the point? Utilize the vortex to allow a clean path of air towards the bargeboard/floor?chuckdanny wrote:So i'm not the only one to be interested in those little tornadoes ?![]()

You lost me on this one!ArgyrisB wrote:regarding the diffuser discussion.
The primary purpose of the diffuser is to expand air resulting to drop of velocity and therefore increase in pressure. So it creates a pressure potential which will accelerate the flow underneath the car. However in the previous images we have seen that in the area of the diffuser the pressure is lower than the pressure underneath the car not higher as one would except.
What's the explanation, cause i've been confused
