Apparatus For Decreasing Aerodynamic Drag, Improving Stability, and Reducing Road Spray of a Transportation Vehicle and Method of Mounting an Aerodynamic Add-On Device onto a Transport Vehicle

摘要

The invention relates to an apparatus for decreasing aerodynamic drag, improving stability, and reducing road spray of a transport vehicle. The apparatus comprises an underbody fairing comprising a substantially parabolic elongated panel. The underbody fairing is strategically positioned beneath the transport vehicle and forward of the rear wheel assembly to deflect air around the rear wheel assembly while also facilitating a laminar airflow moving laterally beneath the transport vehicle.
