Question: Are boat-tails and kamm-backs *both* legitimate solutions to aero design problems? Which one gives you a better solution?
I think that some may consider the $$cost vs gain as a factor in the "better solution"..
The
Wake board and Frame extension ideas have been wind-tunnel tested,
because they were VERY cheap to install on 16 wheelers.
(Of course, an expensive full boat-tail is going to be way better).
My aim is to try out that cheap, quick and easy stuff to see what might work..
It's a crap shoot. But, if something quick-n-easy actually works, that would save a lot of people a lot of work and maybe some gas money..
One more step in trying to save the planet.. LOL!
