How to Evaluate General form of Drag Coefficient?

General form of Drag Coefficient evaluator uses Drag Coefficient = 24/Reynold Number to evaluate the Drag Coefficient, The General form of Drag Coefficient formula is defined as the 24 per reynolds number. The drag coefficient is a measure of the effectiveness of a streamline aerodynamic body shape in reducing the fluid resistance to the forward motion of a vehicle. Drag Coefficient is denoted by CD symbol.
