Question: a 110 scale model automobile is tested in a wind...
Question details
A
1/10 scale model automobile is tested in a wind tunnel under
dynamically similar conditions. The prototype speed is 75km/h and
the model drag force Fd is 300N. Find the corresponding prototype
drag force and the prototype power required to overcome this drag.
Hint; the model and the prototype have the same reynolds number and
coefficient of drag Cd. Cd= Fd/ (0.5pV^2L^2)
