The aerodynamic drag of a new sports car is to be predicted at a speed of 75 km/h at an air temperature of 25°C. Automotive engineers build a one-fifth scale model of the car to test in a wind tunnel. It is winter and the wind tunnel is located in an unheated building. The temperature of the wind tunnel air is only 5°C. a) Determine how fast the engineers should run the wind tunnel in order to achieve similarity between...
Automotive engineers plan to build a one-third scale model of a sports car and test it in a wind tunnel. The temperature of the wind tunnel is at 25°C. The drag force is measured with a drag balance and the moving belt is used to simulate the moving ground.

The drag of a sonar transducer is to be predicted, based on wind tunnel test data. The prototype, a 1-ft diameter sphere, is to be towed at 5 knots (i.e. 8.44 ft/s) in seawater at 40°F. The model is 6 in. in diameter and the drag of the model is measured to be 0.6 lbf for wind tunnel air temperature at 70°F 1) (5 pts) Use Buckingham Pi Theorem to prove that the drag coefficient Cd is related to the...

The drag coefficient of a car is to be determined experimentally with a full scaleWind tunnel test in a large wind tunnel. The wind speed is60 mih 00 km/h (60 mi/h) and the drag force measured on a scale as shown in the adjacent drawing is 302 N (68 lbf). The frontal area of the car is 2.068 m2 (22.26 ft2) Neglect any ground effect due to the floor not moving relative to the car (a) Calculate the drag coefficient...
