| Abstract: | The article explores the use of passive control devices to optimize the aerodynamic shape of a simplified ground vehicle (Ahmed Body) in order to reduce drag and improve fuel efficiency. By employing cylindrical roughness elements and vortex generators, the study achieved a drag reduction of approximately 8.23% and 11.62% through Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis. The research underscores the potential for enhancing aerodynamic performance and decreasing energy consumption in vehicles by implementing passive control devices effectively.
