9  Finalized computer model  ProEngineer  Finished analysis (CFD)  Fluent Flowizard  Computed drag coefficient  Material selection 9

10  Inputs:  Density of air: 1.23 kg/m 3  Fluid velocity: 25 mph  Cross sectional area: 0.25 m 2  Outputs:  Pressure Distribution  Drag Force  Drag Coefficient: 10

11  Case 1: Aeroshell does not cover steering system  Results: ▪ Drag Force: 7.2 N ▪ Drag Coefficient: C d =0.4  Case 2: Aeroshell extended under vehicle, covering steering system  Results: ▪ Drag Force: 6.8 N ▪ Drag Coefficient: C d =0.35 11
