The drag of an oceanographic research submarine 9 m long is to be estimated from wind tunnel tests with a scale model of length 1.5 m and wetted surface area 1.2 m2. The measured drag force in the wind tunnel is 7.9 N at a wind speed of 30 m/s and air temperature of 25℃. If the full-scale submarine is deeply submerged in salt water at 15℃ at what speed can its drag be most accurately predicted? What is the best estimate of its drag at a speed of 2 m/s? Can this estimate be refined by raising or lowering the temperature in the wind tunnel?
