Abstract

A summary of Aero Vironment Inc. research programs in Truck Drag Reduction is given. These programs have involved analytical studies, wind tunnel testing, full scale field tests, full scale road test, and operational testing. A number of different test methods and instrumentation techniques have been perfected. Which operate simply and reliably, and give precision of higher than 2 % under windless conditions?
