Hey
Currently I am working on a project to know what is the best angle for a radiator to be fitted in a car that will reduce the drag and increase the heat exchange also.
The thing that is bothering me is that most motor sport cars including F1 angles the radiator and it is because of
- Lowering the COG
- Increasing the traction
I want to know what is the angle used for the radiator for the cars? Are the fins angled or just the radiator?
if the radiator is at angle of 135 or 45 will the drag and heat exchange be the same?
