Competition Car Aerodynamics
By: Simon McBeath
Aerodynamics is a science in itself, and is one of the most important factors in modern competition car design. This new book, a successor to Competition Car Downforce, covers all aspects of aerodynamics, including both downforce and drag. This complex subject is explained in down-to-earth terms, with the aid of numerous illustrations, including colour CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) diagrams to demonstrate how aerodynamic devices work. Aimed primarily at amateur and semi-professional designers and drivers, as well as students, this fascinating book will also appeal to interested armchair enthusiasts.
