Air friction, or air drag, is an example of fluid friction. Unlike the standard model of surface friction, such friction forces are velocity dependent. The velocity dependence may be very complicated, and only special cases can be treated analytically.
4 Μαρ 2017 · Let us assume that the vehicle moves along a flat surface at a constant speed and the external forces are limited to the tire friction and to the aerodynamic drag. Such an experiment is described in Fig. 1, where the data was obtained from a towing test.
In fluid dynamics, the drag coefficient (commonly denoted as: , or ) is a dimensionless quantity that is used to quantify the drag or resistance of an object in a fluid environment, such as air or water. It is used in the drag equation in which a lower drag coefficient indicates the object will have less aerodynamic or hydrodynamic drag.
Aerodynamic drag, sometimes called wind resistance, is an effect which a vehicle must overcome more and more as speed increases. Drag is a form of friction, though some of the air's effect on the vehicle is due to a low pressure zone behind the vehicle, and a high pressure zone in front.
air resistance that opposes any motion, and if you leave a moving object alone, this friction and drag will eventually cause it to stop. This lecture looks at how this drag impacts a car.
The force on an object that resists its motion through a fluid is called drag. When the fluid is a gas like air, it is called aerodynamic drag or air resistance. When the fluid is a liquid like water it is called hydrodynamic drag, but never "water resistance". Fluids are characterized by their ability to flow.
10 Μαΐ 2012 · In other words, as a car speeds up, it experiences more ‘drag’, or air resistance, pulling it backwards. This phenomenon causes a limit on the speed of a falling object, called the ‘terminal velocity’.
