Titre : Air flow testing on aerodynamic truck
Description : (La description de cette image n'existe qu'en anglais)
This photograph illustrates a standard passenger van modified at the Dryden Flight Research Center to investigate the aerodynamics of trucks. The resulting vehicle--re-fashioned with sheet metal--resembled a motor home, with rounded vertical corners on the vehicle's front and rear sections. For subsequent tests, researchers installed a ''boat tail'' structure, shown in the photograph.
