Abstract
Expansion dataset for the SAE Technical Paper 2018-01-0725, which includes:- experimental results (Figures 10 to 18) in spreadsheet format.- summary of experimental testing conditions per run.- details of statistical analysis per blocking factor (i.e. group of testing cases).- addition of corrected coefficients for wall interference (wind tunnel area blockage of 10.2%).SUMMARY:A.
