2003-01-3377. Simple and Low-Cost Aerodynamic drag Reduction Devices for Tractor-Trailer Trucks Richard M. Wood and Steven X. S. Bauer SOLUS Solutions and Technologies Copyright 2003 SAE International ABSTRACT concerns identifies a number of additional factors such as interference from other vehicles, atmospheric effects, Three Simple , low cost Aerodynamic drag Reduction and road conditions. All of these factors must be devices have been developed for application to the addressed when developing technologies to improve trailer of a tractor-trailer truck. The three devices have the fuel economy of heavy vehicles. undergone extensive operational testing where they have amassed over 85,000 miles of use.
3 performance factors addressed in the design activity were aerodynamic loads, stability and handling, braking, splash and spray, and tire wear. A mitigating factor in the design activity was the limitation
