Abstract

The study aims to present virtual prototyping applicability for design and evaluation of complex system of automotive industry. It presents a new principle design solution and illustrates design development, based entirely on virtual prototyping. The design concept is to provide solution for radiators fan and its shroud for high speeds when the fan acts like resistance. Multiple design variants are examined using virtual prototype of radiators, fan, shroud and all engine components. Developed design variants are compared by their performance both at low and high speeds.
