The characteristics at both low speed approximately 20 mph


The drag characteristics for a newly designed automobile having a characteristic length of 20 ft are to be determined through a model study. The characteristics at both low speed (approximately 20 mph) and high speed (90 mph) are of interest. For a series of projected model tests, a wind tunnel that will accommodate a model with a characteristic length of 4 ft is to be used. Determine the range of air velocities that would be required for the wind tunnel if Reynolds number similarity is desired.
