2:47 I think you need to explain why speeding up the airflow leads to a drop in pressure. Non-technical people may feel it is not quite so intuitive to conclude this, I think. Simplistically people might think the "squeezing together" of the airflow would densify the air and make its pressure rise according to the p = rgh formula, where p is static pressure, r is the fluid density, g is the gravitational constant and h is the height of fluid above the pressure probe. (Weather presenters often quote this formula so it is known to many) Of course in fact air is not very compressible so the density won't change that much at the throat. The real reason for the pressure drop at the throat is the interplay between fluid pressure, speed and vertical level along a streamline. Bernoulli derived an equation for this: p/rg + sqr(v)/2g + z = constant. This implies that as the velocity of air increases along the same horizontal streamline, its (static) pressure decreases.

Also engineer here, but electrical engineering so I only know so much about aerodynamcs. :D Maybe I'm a bit dull but can you please explain why exactly the Venturi effect is working here? I mean sure the low pressure area sucks the car to the ground, but respectively the high pressure areas push the car up, or don't they? To me it seems that if the suction force is bigger than the pushing force, it violates the energy conservation law. Assuming the volumetric and mass flow rate in front and at the end of the car is the same, then suction force and pushing force should cancel each other out. What am I missing?
@virtual_GaRy2 жыл бұрын
@@Meltorizor That is actually a very good question. The notion that pressure and suction cancel out is very logical, and it is actually true in inviscid flows. There is no drag or lift in (theoretical) inviscid flows. In real flows however, lift is a product of the bound circulation of flow inside a wing. the circulation comes from integrating the friction components of air passing with different speeds on both sides of the object (wing, diffusor+body,..). So by having a speed difference we always induce a circulation over the body and a counterrotating one aft of the lifting surface (sometimes visible as a shedded vortex or von Karman straight). Where the edges of the lifting surface are we get tip vortices and tip vortex sheets, connecting the bound and the shedded circulation, according to Helmholtz' second theorem. The details of the flow are complicated, but in a venturi diffusor system, the are of cross section contraction is connected to the freestream through a large cross section, which means that ambient pressure dominates the pressure field before the flow is accelerated enough to be of reduced pressure. The better optimised the flow constraint and expansion, the closer the ends of the tunnel will be to pure ambient pressure, with less influence of the stagnation component of the pressure, and the lower your suction pressures will go. Also, looking at CFD results of venturi underfloors, there is a distinct suction peak just aft of where maxmium restriction occurs and parasitic drag reduces the energy of the flow and its relative speed to the object its passing. so an underfloor has its centre of pressure a bit forward of its centroid. It is a complicated topic and not so easy to explain with diagrams, but I hope you can use your engineering curiosity and my initial answer to find the right explanation for you :)
@Meltorizor2 жыл бұрын
@@virtual_GaRy Thanks for your answer. As it's working for real I already imagined that it must have to do with atmospheric pressure and that air is compressable.

Hopefully, it will work as expected and make passing less artificial and more the result of grip, power and driver skill in making the best of it and another driver’s errors. DRS tends to make passing another car more of forgone conclusion. While I understand why DRS was necessitated due to the over reliance of wings to create downforce, it always seem to be a very flawed bandaid solution to the problem.

Im not into aerodynamics and the effect itself was explained very well in the video, just think I wanted to ask any hobby expert about it: to match the airflow coming out of tunnel with the airflow coming in, I imagine the air molecules to create more density in the narrow middle of the tunnel since they kinda get mashed together there in a way(same amount of air molecules at a time though a taller cross sectional area). But coming from that perspective I just cant understand how a high density area creates a low pressure area(wouldnt a high density area push outwards to restore its initial density (resulting in higher pressure)), wouldnt that mean there was a even higher pressure in that section? Clearly I am confusing something here I just wanna know what it is.

Been looking at the current cars' floor and it really seems the step floor actually makes some ground effect possible. The flat floors from the previous regulations look like they were too low to scoop any significant air underneath, even with the a raised nose (like on the FW14), and that air is likely to have gone under the sidepods but above the floor. With the step floor, the step plane to each side is higher, so some of the air scooped by the splitter under the cockpit goes right under it, to each side of the reference plane. Seal it with some vortices and you have a more significant ground effect. The classic ground effect cars in essence also had a step floor, except the step planes under the sidepods were not planes, but curved like an airfoil.

I would really enjoy a video discussing the difference between Towing and this lack of downside caused by turbulent air. Every time I hear somebody talk about a lack of downforce in a trailing car I just keep thinking isn't that something we want so that you can pass on a straight? I mean that's the whole idea of slipstream right? Or is this turbulent air different than slipstream?

To combat the 'instability' through the corners, maybe bring back active suspension too.. That way it might also negate the lack of sidewall on the tyres (suspension) also... For those that don't understand.... Around 40% of an F1 cars suspension is made up from the tyre sidewall, 13" (330mm) rims and a tyre diameter of 670mm... Meaning there's 340mm (divided by 2) of tyre between the road and and the rim.... 2021, the rims go to 18" (457mm) with the tyres growing to 720mm. Meaning there's 263mm (divided by 2) of tyre between the road and tyre... In F1 terms, that's a huge change.

It all makes pretty good sense except how is it possible for air pressure to be lower at the point of restriction in a venturi? In the "choked pipe" example, surely the pressure increases up to the point of restriction and doesn't actually drop until after the point where the airflow stops being squeezed, no?
@DaniMacYo5 жыл бұрын
This is all in theory. F1 has a great reputation of hyping us up and then the teams find loopholes and someone will dominate and we are left with the midfield fighting close while one or two teams are winning. We’ll have to wait and see. Seems interesting though. I do look forward to seeing the teams interpretations of these new regulations.

DRS is planned as a possible workaround; it has been incorporated in the design but not "activated". The place where to put the mechanism is thought of and the overall "default" wing design is easy to change to have a DRS. So it might make a sudden return between seasons. Pretty much everything i've seen from the new rules has been great.

As hopeful as I am, I've heard the same claims of "improving racing and overtaking" with regulation changes and rarely have they worked out in F1. If the aero chamges are trying to fix this, it is hopeless unless the tire design and engine fuel settings also follow. If it eliminates the need for horrible DRS then it's a step forward.

Great video. I wish that you had acknowledged the fans that may teams were using to create suction under the body of the car. You even had an image of a red car with the fan on the back. That is a big part of the downforce ideas from back in the day. also part of why they had the big block off plates on the sides of the car. It wasn't just the venturi effect but an actual vacuum created by the fans. The image of the car with the vacuum fan is at 3:55 for those who want to see it and understand what they were doing back then.

I remember the downforce days, don't remember seeing it at the time, but when they first introduced it had mechanics covering wings on cars to distract from real reason for corner speeds. Later there was the huge fan fitted to another car, to increase pressure differential under the car, which was like following turbo charged road gritter. But as you alluded to, safety wasn't as great a concern in those days, crashes could quickly turn fatal. But the new rules hopefully will reinvigorate the sport, while being safer for the drivers.

Great video. As a long time but casual fan (I don't take notice of tiny aero package upgrades and the like) this explained it really well. F1 has some amazing talent right now and of course there has been some fantastic racing lately, but 2021 regs seems like it will unlock "real racing" again. Rather than DRS passes we should have much closer wheel to wheel racing even through corners leading to passes in new places we might have seen far less of currently. Now we can watch drivers competing even more fiercely, and one mistake will compromise you more now than perhaps in the past because your competitor will be right on your tail at all times and not hanging back to keep the superior airflow, and then relying on DRS to close the gap.

If it was a case of designing a spec chassis that everyone had to adhere to, that would have been done a long time ago. The problem in F1 is anticipating where the development gets out of hand and creates turbulence. You don't worry about that in Indycar or SuperFormula.
@martf10615 ай бұрын
They use this principle now. Between the flat floor and the seat, there are hidden tunnels that channel's the air flow to create a Real Venturi tunnel effect. And tho, Fans are not allowed, they use the excess air pressure of the turbo to force more air through the tunnels. When entering a corner, you slow down and lose some of the high speed air going IN the venturi tunnel, and lose downforce.. but the engine also stops needing the highly compressed air of the turbo.. So where do you channel this excess pressure..?! At the entrance of the venturi tunnel !!. And when you exit the corner, you qwickly need air going IN the turbo, to boost the engine. That air comes from the output of the venturi tunnel.
