- Summary:
- Wind tunnel measurements on a rectangular vehicle-like shape and on two detailed, scale-model trucks have been employed to define the front and rear edge geometries that minimize aerodynamic drag. Optimum configurations are identified with sufficient detail for commercial vehicle design purposes. Comparisons of the model-scale measurements with limited measurements on a full-scale straight truck in a large wind tunnel support the interpretation of these test results
