Method 2: Prediction of Drag using Wake Measurements
By measuring the velocity profile downstream (in the wake) of the flow the drag co-efficient is
determined by the equation below.

PW = wake static pressure which is taken as the least absolute pressure calculated in the tables

For simpsons rule (shown below) the number of data should be in even numbers (excluding the initial value),
but the number of measured data is odd numbers 9 port readings excluding the initial value. So the measured
data is interpolated. Table 4 shows the CD calculation from the wake survey rake data.

Conclusion:
The experimental data is analysed and from the figure -6 and table -5 shows that both the methods for
prediction of Drag of a circular cylinder gives more or less same results.
