Virtual Wind Tunnel: 30 Degree Rear Wing


These are the results of a CFD "virtual wind tunnel" simulation of a Mini-Z MR03 Mazda 787b 3D model with a 30 degree rear wing.

The drag force recorded by the simulation while the car was "racing" at 10 m/s (36 km/h) was 8.9 gf. The down force recorded by the simulation at this speed was 8.0 gf.
