Drag Coefficient Library

 

This library provides drag coefficient and drag force for many surfaces.  The information in this library is grouped into Drag Coefficient functions and Drag Force procedures.  The Drag Coefficient functions returns the drag coefficient given Reynolds number and/or a non-dimensional geometry factor.  The Drag Force procedures return the drag force (or drag force per unit  length, as appropriate) and optionally, the drag coefficient and Reynolds number.

 

The most convenient way to locate and use the Drag Coefficient library is through the Function Information command in the Options menu.  Select the Heat Transfer & Fluid Flow radio button at the top of the dialog.  Then select Drag Coefficients and Drag Force.
