“Nolder”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

In automotive design, a nolder is a small aerodynamic shape (a strip, wing, protrusion, lip or profile) integral to bodywork or to an aerodynamic attachment – e.g., a spoiler, diffuser or splitter – perpendicular to the direction of air flow travel^[1] for the purpose of further managing and refining air flow.

Nolders are used in both high-performance as well as in less critical aerodynamic applications.

Etymology

In 1996, Autocar attributed original use of the term to Ferrari,^[2] with other sources citing the nolder as having derived from Formula One Racing,^[3] where Ferrari has been prominent.

The Formula One Dictionary defines a nolder as "a small upside-down L-shaped aerodynamic appendage generally positioned on the trailing edge of the rear wing to increase downforce at low speed."^[4]

The Automotive Dictionary defines it as a "very small aerodynamic appendage that fits freely into an aileron profile to increase downforce without affecting drag resistance."^[5]

Applications

In the design of high-performance vehicles, a nolder of limited size can significantly increase or decrease the lift (Cz) of a vehicle's aerodynamic profile.^[1]

Nolders are also used in less high-performance applications, for example forcing an airflow separation alongside a vertical rear window to minimize debris accumulation, e.g., with a small hatchback.

Examples

Examples include the underside of the Ferrari LaFerrari, which features a nolder to assist with vehicle dynamics.^[6] The Ferrari 599 GTO features prominent flanking aerodynamic fins or flying buttresses aside the rear window, maximizing air flow to a linear rear nolder.^[7] The Ferrari 355 has a similar nolder profile at the upper portion of its tail.^[8]

The Koenigsegg CCXR features an optional front splitter with a nolder,^[9] and the spoiler at the rear bumper of the Maserati 320S features a supplementary nolder to increase the vertical load to the rear.^[10]

For airflow management and to assist in keeping the rear window free from dirt, nolders are integral to the rearmost vertical pillar of Mini Cooper models and Fiat 500L.^[11]
