Abstract
A vehicle roof panel for channeling fluid includes a raised formation at a centerline of the vehicle, and a plurality of primary troughs disposed laterally on either side of the raised formation. Each of the primary troughs defines a base surface that is recessed below a global runoff curvature of the roof. The roof panel also includes a secondary trough positioned laterally outboard of the primary troughs that defines a base surface that is substantially aligned with the global runoff curvature.
