It's an exciting book to write.
Jaguar's chief aerodynamicist has been very helpful with providing me with material. F1 aerodynamicist Willem Toet has been commenting on some paras, and my technical editor/consultant RH Barnard is just about to get the first chapter to give me feedback on.
These are the chapter headings:
Introduction
Chapter 1 – Theory
Chapter 2 – Aerodynamic vehicles
Chapter 3 – Flow visualisation
Chapter 4 – Pressure measurement
Chapter 5 – Noise measurement
Chapter 6 – Measuring drag and lift
Chapter 7 – Reducing drag
Chapter 8 – Reducing lift and increasing stability
Chapter 9 – Improving flow through heat exchangers
Chapter 10 – Engine intakes
Chapter 11 – Reducing aerodynamic noise
As far as I know, it will be the only major aero book aimed at normal people modifying road cars.
