41. The drag coefficient of a complete structure such as an aircraft also includes the effects of interference drag. 42. The drag coefficient was reduced to. 43. A sequence of successive approximation drag coefficient functions is generated that converge rapidly to actual observed drag data. 44. A prudent choice of body profile is essential for a low drag coefficient . vortices should be avoided. 45. These describe the variation in drag coefficient as a function of angle a with respect to the flow. 46. Higher or lower airspeeds are obtained with the drag coefficient of a parachute despite having much lower solidity. 47. Expedition's drag coefficient was 0.41 Cd. 48. The drag coefficient is used to compare the solutions of different geometries by means of a dimensionless number. 49. The resulting drag coefficient ( or more precisely the frontal area ) is thus doubled in the thrust phase. 50. A Microsoft Excel application has been authored that uses least squares fits of wind tunnel acquired tabular drag coefficients .
