Discussion
Assertion (A): Horizontal buoyancy must be subtracted from a measured drag.
Reason (R): The tunnel's own wall boundary layers thicken along the test section.
Select the correct answer from the options below.
Answer: A
Both are true and the second explains the first. The thickening walls contract the effective area, so the pressure falls downstream and pushes the model rearward exactly as a buoyancy force would. Slightly diverging walls remove the gradient at source.
