A 17,000-kg tractor-trailer rig has a frontal area of 9.2 m2, a drag coefficient of 0.96, a rolling resistance coefficient of 0.05 (multiplying the weight of a vehicle by the rolling resistance coefficient gives the rolling resistance), a bearing friction resistance of 350 N, and a maximum speed of 110 km/h on a level road during steady cruising in calm weather with an air density of 1.25 kg/m3. Now a fairing is installed to the front of the rig to suppress separation and to streamline the flow to the top surface, and the drag coefficient is reduced to 0.76. Determine the maximum speed of the rig with the fairing.
3. A truck has a drag coefficient based on frontal area of CD = 0.86. The truck has a mass of 12,750 kg and
a frontal area of 10.5 m2. If the truck is traveling at constant speed on a level road, the forces retarding its
forward progress are the drag and the rolling friction. The force due to rolling friction can be written as
Fit Wfr(1+
V
V₁
where V is the truck speed in m/s, Vo = 30 m/s and fr (the coefficient of rolling resistance) is approximately
0.008 for a truck on concrete or asphalt. Plot the total power the engine must supply as a function of truck
speed, V. Comment on the relative importance of drag and rolling friction in the fuel consumption of the
truck.
