wind tunnel pictures

[richierocket]

Guys, I've been lurking for a while and over the last couple weeks, I have been reading many of the aero threads. I remember someone posted a link to some really good wind tunnel pics with smoke trails showing flow seperation, but I can't find it again. I scanned thru all the Phil Knox aero seminars, also aerohead's template threads, but I couldn't find the links again.
IIRC they were from a German university?

I searched Google and Bing images for variations on "wind tunnel automobile car sedan seperation flow", but could find many good pics, there were a few but not the ones from that link.

Sorry for bothering everyone, anyone know what I'm talking about?

Thanks,
Rich

I was still learning a bunch when I was going back & forth with Phil in this thread, we have a few wind tunnel pics here.
