Samenvatting
The response of a road vehicle to a yawed flow is of great importance to its handling qualities and has naturally received considerable attention. Less interest has been shown in the effects of changes in pitch angle, which occur for a number of reasons. Wind tunnel tests have been performed on a variety of vehicle shapes to determine the effects of pitch and yaw on lift and drag forces. The front wheel lift of a typical vehicle is very sensitive to small changes in incidence. The rear wheel lift and drag are almost independent.
