Summary

The importance of aerodynamics in mechanical engineering is discussed. The influence on the design of vehicles, especially automobiles, is considered in detail. The danger of carbon monoxide poisoning is pointed out. This occurs in vehicles of poor aerodynamic form and is due to bad ventilation. Many advances in mechanical engineering rendered possible by the application of aerodynamics are also discussed.
