Aeromods and Cd imrpovements - anyone have data short of full boattail improvements?
New here, had fun perusing, now I'm down to the data questions:
Ok, so I've seen Cd data for AeroCivic and a few others, showing the extreme Cd improvements they've gotten with a full boat-tail... but does anyone have the data for 'milder' Aerodynamic modifications? Specifically, I'm wondering if any Cd data exists for items such as: Belly Pan Kammback/short tails Wheel Well Covers (rear wheel wells) Moon Covers - wheel/hubcaps I've seen the Belly Pan results at ~2-3% MPG in ABA testing per the Wiki article, wondering what else has been documented in terms of MPG or Cd tests. |
From the testing I did I got a 7% improvement in fuel consumption @ 70km/h and 8% @ 100km/h for the following:
I also did coastdown tests and chrunching the numbers implied a Cd reduction of only ~3%, from 0.334 to 0.324. The test conditions were not ideal, but I haven't been able to find better conditions since then. |
