From the paper:
The primary engineering target, however, was to guarantee a sufficiently high cooling
capacity regardless of the driving condition. For sports cars, “circuit racing“ and „highspeed driving“ are the most relevant operating modes with the highest loads on the cooling system occurring during blower-assisted operation on racing tracks. During aerodynamically relevant high-speed driving, the demand for cooling is considerably lower. The different cooling-capacity and cooling-air demands under those operating
conditions had to be taken into due account. And in order to realize a most efficient and demand-adapted cooling-air concept it was important not to overdimension the
cooling-air requirements either.
So all this bumf from Aerohead is just because on the track (not at high speed on the road) the radiator fan comes on?
Really? That's some great conspiracy that only Aerohead can reveal?
The rest of us can admire a car whose design gives extremely low aerodynamic cooling drag.
Talk about losing the wood for the trees.
