Wind tunnel math discussion
I saw that vid a long time ago , and to be honest its the reason I started reading and learning about aerodynamic changes and how I could mod my car
the reason is the same but in a smaller scale (dont have a ¼million supra) but the wind tunnel employee at 2:16 - 2:50 says something a bit off I believe and I want to discuss is that how aero works? I mean, I get what he is saying but...:confused: https://youtu.be/bOmbXQbyvVM I hope the thread is interesting to others as well :rolleyes: |

But..... The chances of measuring anything accurately in such a tiny wind tunnel are basically zero. If you want to do some more reading as to why that is the case, look up terms like blockage factor, boundary conditions, wind tunnel testing with turning wheels, and so on. Unless you can afford testing in a full-size wind tunnel, it's far better to measure aerodynamic factors in real world conditions. About the only thing you cannot measure on the road is drag coefficient as an absolute number. |
