Aerodynamics — is a branch of dynamics concerned with studying the motion of air, particularly when it interacts with a moving object. Aerodynamics is closely related to fluid dynamics and gas dynamics, with much theory shared between them. Aerodynamics is… … Wikipedia
Drag coefficient — In fluid dynamics, the drag coefficient (commonly denoted as: cd, cx or cw) is a dimensionless quantity that is used to quantify the drag or resistance of an object in a fluid environment such as air or water. It is used in the drag equation,… … Wikipedia
Drag (physics) — Shape and flow Form drag Skin friction 0% 100% 10% 90% … Wikipedia
Drag divergence Mach number — The drag divergence Mach number (not to be confused with critical Mach number) is the Mach number at which the aerodynamic drag on an airfoil or airframe begins to increase rapidly as the Mach number continues to increase[1]. This increase can… … Wikipedia
Drag-resistant aerospike — Trident I first launch on 18 January 1977 at Cape Canaveral. The thin antenna like structure mounted on the nose cone is the aerospike, which is composed of 2 parts. 1) The Extensible Boom is the long, slender, slightly tapered cylindrical… … Wikipedia
Automobile drag coefficient — The drag coefficient is a common metric in automotive design, where designers strive to achieve a low coefficient. Minimizing drag is done to improve fuel efficiency at highway speeds, where aerodynamic effects represent a substantial fraction of … Wikipedia
Lift-induced drag — In aerodynamics, lift induced drag, induced drag, vortex drag, or sometimes drag due to lift, is a drag force that occurs whenever a moving object redirects the airflow coming at it. This drag force occurs in airplanes due to wings or a lifting… … Wikipedia
Automotive aerodynamics — forces at high speeds. For some classes of racing vehicles, it may also be important to produce desirable downwards aerodynamic forces to improve traction and thus cornering abilities.An aerodynamic automobile will integrate the wheel arcs and… … Wikipedia
Lift-to-drag ratio — In aerodynamics, the lift to drag ratio, or L/D ratio ( ell over dee in the US, ell dee in the UK), is the amount of lift generated by a wing or vehicle, divided by the drag it creates by moving through the air. A higher or more favorable L/D… … Wikipedia
Drafting (aerodynamics) — A paceline of drafting cyclists For other uses, see Slipstream (disambiguation). Drafting or slipstreaming is a technique where two vehicles or other moving objects are caused to align in a close group reducing the overall effect of drag due to… … Wikipedia
Bargeboard (aerodynamics) — Bargeboards are pieces of bodywork on open wheel racing cars, serving a purely aerodynamic (as opposed to structural) function. They are curved vertical planes situated longitudinally, between the front wheels and the sidepods, held away from the … Wikipedia
