I've done tons of searching, but I haven't been able to find if anyone knows the coefficient of lift for a 914? I've found lots of Cd and Ca numbers, but I need the Cl for some data work.
Thanks! |

Have you seen this site?
http://www.cassidy-online.com/porsche914/a...aids/index.html I'm not sure if Chris (the author/instructor) is a member on the site, but he has some pretty interesting figures on there. Yes, its mostly Cd, but there are L figures as well. I don't have all the data to do the derivation for Cl, but you might be able to contact him to find out what he used for A or if he already has Cl values. |
