A coefficient representing the drag on a given airfoil or other body, or a coefficient representing a particular element of drag
Factor representing the drag acting on a body (as an automobile or airfoil)
number that represents the intensity of force acting on a body in motion in direct opposition to the body's motion
The drag coefficient is defined as the drag/(dynamic pressure * reference area) The reference area is usually the plan-form or flat projection (the wing's shadow at noon) area of the wing
– a constant related to air resistance of a moving object
Normalized drag force, makes the comparison of the aerodynamic properties of different sized objects possible; Definition
A measure of the aerodynamic sleekness of an object Drag coefficient is signified by "dc : The lower the number, the greater the aerodynamic efficiency The higher the drag coefficient, the more a car's engine must work to keep a given road speed Also known as "CD" for coefficient of drag "
A coefficient representing the drag on a given airfoil or other body, or a coefficient representing a particular element of drag See Rayleigh formula
