that still doesnt explain why the variance in air flow, a cylinder is a cylinder (or a circle a circle) which will have the same dynamic affect on the flow pattern.
unless #1/2 are cylinders and #3 is a ball, which of course will have a huge impact on flow.
either way, the teardrop should have the lowest CD on the chart according to the flow pattern itself.

@ lunar, sorry, I didnt mean to imply it was your chart specifically, just that you posted it so as such are responsible for it
