Multiple stage system for aerodynamic testing of a vehicle on a static surface and related method

摘要

A system for aerodynamically testing a vehicle having a front pair of wheels and a rear pair of wheels includes a surface for statically supporting the vehicle. The system additionally includes a primary source of air directed towards the vehicle. The primary source of air aerodynamically simulates conditions for the vehicle at a predetermined speed. The system further includes a first supplemental source of air directed into a flow of air generated by the primary source of air immediately behind the first pair of wheels.
