Abstract
In this paper, a numerical calculation method based on CFD is proposed to calculate the force and analyze the flow field of the cable car in static state. When the wind attack angle and the wind deflection angle are both 0°and the wind speed is 10m/s, the drag coefficient of the cable car is calculated by numerical simulation to be 0.77, which is consistent with the experimental results. Vortices with different sizes and intensities were observed on the lateral, upper and lower sides, and behind the cable car. The positions of the vortices correspond to the positions of the negative pressure zone.
