Co2 Dragster Flow Design - Table Outputs and Pictures

The document reports results from a wind tunnel experiment measuring the drag force on three models - a blank model, a car model without wheels, and a full car model - at two velocities. At 10 m/s, the car without wheels reduced drag by 4.44% compared to the blank, while the full car model reduced drag by 3.33%. At 25 m/s, the car without wheels reduced drag by 47.9% whereas the full car model reduced drag by 16.66% compared to the blank model.
