Science on Tap: Tapping Science for Game-Changing Performance and Environmental Benefits
Have you ever considered how dimples could be used on cars, semi-trucks, airplanes, and even Frisbees? It’s amazing to discover that dimples can make balls travel up to twice as far or drastically cut emissions and drag by harnessing smart designs.
For example, every 10% drag reduction in semi-truck aerodynamics saves the entire US semi-truck fleet $6.83 billion/year in diesel consumption or about $3,416 per semi-truck. This also results in 26.5 million fewer tons of CO2 emitted per year for the whole fleet. But would you believe dimples can also increase heat transfer by 200% or more when done correctly?
