A wing-body model is tested in a wind tunnel with a flow of 100 m/s at standard sea-level conditions. The wing area is 1.5 m2 and the mean aerodynamic chord length is 0.45 m. Measurements of lift force, L, and moment about the center of gravity, M CG are made using the wind tunnel force balance. B1(a) When the lift is zero, the moment about the center of gravity is measured to be, MCG = −12.4 Nm . At another...

Oceanographers use submerged sonar systems, towed by a cable from a ship. In addition to their downward weight, there are buoyant forces and forces from the flowing water that allow them to travel in a horizontal path. One such submersible has a cross-section area of 1.6 m2, and, when towed at 4.6 m/s, the tow cable makes an angle of 35 degrees with the horizontal and has a tension of 24,025 N. What is the drag coeeficient of the submersible?...

A model car is tested in a large wind tunnel at an airspeed of 200 km/h. The model is 0.8m long and is a geometrically similar ¼ scale model of the full-size prototype car. If a drag force of 1.2kN is measured on the model in the wind tunnel, estimate the power the full-size car would require to overcome the drag force when travelling at a speed of 50km/h How would you describe the flow? Are similarity conditions met? Explain....
