This paper details a quantitative 3D investigation using LDA (laser Doppler anemometry) into the interaction aerodynamics on a subscale open wheel race car inverted front wing and wheel. Of primary importance to this study was the influence of changing wing angle of attack and span on the resulting near-field and far-field flow characteristics. Results obtained showed that both variables do have a significant influence on the resultant flow-field, particularly on wing vortex and wheel wake development and propagation.
