Where is the fender of a car located?
1 Answers
The fender of a car is located above the tires, between the door, hood, and bumper. The fender, also known as the wing panel, is a type of covering component on motor vehicles and non-motor vehicles, which can be divided into front fenders and rear fenders. The functions of the fender are: 1. Utilizing fluid dynamics to reduce the drag coefficient, making the car drive more smoothly; 2. Preventing gravel and mud kicked up by the wheels from splashing onto the bottom of the car body during driving. The design principles of car fenders: 1. Verify the fender size using the wheel bounce diagram based on the selected tire model and size to ensure the maximum limit space when the front tires rotate; 2. For dynamic considerations, the rear fender is slightly arched outward in a convex curve.
