The range of automotive components that are affected by air flow around the car is surveyed, with examples of the application of aerodynamic knowledge to brake and engine cooling, wind noise, dirt accumulation, wiper lift, body ventilation, and air leakage. Air pressure distribution patterns over an automobile are shown along with air flow visualization techniques.
