While this video is useful, the effects will be slightly different with the T wing being placed below the rear wing instead of above it. It actually looks like it is placed very close to the stagnation point of the rear wing.
If you add more air to the downside of rear wing it'l create more downforce not reduce draghecan wrote: ↑24 May 2018, 21:22I think, looking at the beginning and end of the t-wing and its angle to the neutral plane, that they're trying to get air under the rear wing in the central area and above in the outer zone. I wonder if they are trying to reduce the drag (I know just the absolute minimum about aero)
The proper term is helicity.DiogoBrand wrote: ↑25 May 2018, 02:06Well, but if the intention is to have vortices merging, I'd guess the effect is more or less the same no matter the placement. Even last year the height of the T-wing would vary from car to car, with Williams going as far as having two.
There are more differences, the endplates have a change in the back, and the rips next to these on the inside are smaller.Sevach wrote: ↑26 May 2018, 12:57https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DeHfqg_W0AAuV58.jpg

Does anyone have better photos of this? I still have not realized what that is.f1rules wrote: ↑24 May 2018, 07:47Looks like they added a small central "snow plough"
