What is the function of a spoiler?
1 Answers
The function of a spoiler is to reduce the lift at the rear of the vehicle. Types of spoilers: 1. Fiberglass spoiler: This type of spoiler comes in various shapes, such as ducktail, wing-shaped, or straight plate, and is easier to mold. However, fiberglass is relatively brittle, with limited toughness and rigidity, and is more affordable. 2. Aluminum alloy spoiler: This type of spoiler offers good airflow guidance and heat dissipation, and the price is moderate. However, it is slightly heavier than spoilers made of other materials. 3. Carbon fiber spoiler: Carbon fiber spoilers have excellent rigidity and durability, are lightweight, and are also the most aesthetically pleasing. They are now widely used in F1 racing cars, but the price is relatively high.
