The role of the round eyebrow.
The main functions of the eyebrows include aesthetic decoration, reducing wind resistance, improving handling, and meeting individual needs.
As an automobile part, the wheel eyebrow first plays the role of aesthetic decoration. Through different design and shape of the wheel eyebrow, the car can show different personalities and styles to meet the individual needs of the owner. Secondly, the design of the wheel eyebrow can optimize the aerodynamic performance of the car, effectively smooth the airflow between the tire and the body, reduce the generation of eddy currents, and thus reduce the wind resistance coefficient of the car when driving. This not only helps to improve the fuel economy of the car, but also enhances the driving stability. In addition, the wheel brows of some high-performance cars are designed to provide more downforce when the vehicle is turning at high speeds, increasing the grip of the tires, thereby improving the vehicle's handling and corner limits.
In addition to the above functions, the wheel eyebrow also has a certain role in preventing scratches, especially in the hub of the wheel which is prone to scratches, the wheel eyebrow can effectively reduce the damage caused by small scratches. Therefore, as a part of automobile design, the wheel eyebrow plays a non-negligible role in improving the overall performance of the vehicle and meeting individual needs .
