Volvo wind tunnel. Testing aerodynamics.

Since the underside and wheels account for more than 50 percent of a car’s total air drag, a traditional wind tunnel where the vehicle stands still in a flow of air can provide an incomplete picture of the vehicle’s overall aerodynamic properties. “It’s a bit like measuring the aerodynamic properties of a car that is standing still in a parking lot during a powerful storm. Our new wind tunnel, on the other hand, has been designed to exactly replicate the flow of air around and underneath the car when driving on a real road at speeds of up to 250km/h. Our wind tunnel uses sophisticated techniques at the forefront of aerodynamics technology” reveals Tim Walker.
