Pertaining to the force of air in motion.
having a shape designed to minimize wind resistance (aerodynamic drag) when moving through the air or other gas; -- used especially of vehicles; as, the aerodynamic styling of an automobile.
Pertaining to a body moving in a fluid, especially air. Sometimes the term aerodynamic is applied to a dynamically stable body (e.g., aircraft or automobile) with a low drag coefficient.
an object with a shape that allows it to fly.
Bicycle part, riding position, or clothing designed to decrease air resistance.
Designed to move through air with minimal resistance.
Refers to forces of moving air acting upon the soil or crop surface.
A shape design of the external body parts to allow the wind to bypass efficiently through the moving car. If the design is aerodynamic enough, it will not only reduce the wind drag to increase fuel economy, but also will increase the grip of that car gradually in fast speed. Go Back Top
DRAG A number that is a coefficient of several factors that indicates how well a race vehicle will travel through the air and how much resistance it offers. Crewmen work to get the best "drag horsepower" rating they can, determining how much horsepower it will take to move a vehicle through the air at a certain mile-per-hour rate. At faster speedways teams strive to get the lowest drag number possible for higher straightaway speeds.
designed to reduce wind drag. Used when talking about golf ball technology, a ball with better aerodynamics will fly further. Better aerodynamics is achieved by modifying the dimples and flat spots on a golf ball.
An aerodynamic design reduces air resistance, which in turn increases fuel efficiency and top speeds. These designs often feature curved, rounded surfaces rather than flat ones because the air can pass over a sleek shape with less resistance.
having a shape that is not adversely affected by wind blowing past it.
Study of interaction between air and solid bodies moving through it
The ease with which air can flow over the vehicle during higher speed operation. An aerodynamically sound vehicle has very little wind resistance.
