Tractor-trailers are used all across America to transport cargo, but are not designed with fuel efficiency in mind. Therefor, there is an incentive for companies to invest in making their tractor-trailers more aerodynamic in order to save on fuel costs. I go into the testing and methodology of how my team and I decided to tackle the problem of reducing the coefficient of drag on tractor-trailers by implementing air channeling devices (ACDs). Then, I cover the results from our experiments and our ACD recommendation.]]>
