Aerodynamic drag measurements made in a wind tunnel are presented for 21 models of commercial vehicles ranging from 3 1/2 ton to 32 ton gross vehicle weight. The results are presented in the form of wind-averaged drag coefficients and the accuracy of the results when applied to full scale vehicles is discussed. (Copyright (c) Crown Copyright 1982.)
