DATA & FILE OVERVIEW
--------------------

This dataset contains:

non_dim_pressure_tap_coordinates.csv

This is a file containing the non-dimensional coordinates of the pressure tap locations. 

force_moment_data.csv

This is a file containing the force and moment data (3 forces and 3 moments). 

pressure_data.csv

This is a file containing the pressure coefficient data for each of the pressure tap locations specified in non_dim_pressure_tap_coordinates.csv. 


--------------------------
METHODOLOGICAL INFORMATION
--------------------------

The data is performed at constant ride heights. At each ride height, the diffuser angle is varied. For each diffuser angle, the rake angle is varied. Then the ride height is changed and the process is repeated. 

All the data has been collected and post-processed by Pawel Kekus
