The principal of "choked flow" limits flow velocity in a constant section tube to Mach one unless the pressure drop is much higher than 1 atm. The drag force at choked flow would be about 20 tons. Tests show drag in a tunnel with high blockage ratios can be more than an order of magnitude greater than the same shape moving in open air. |
