Figures I'd make a statement like that and have somebody
prove me wrong. I cant remember Jeff, what airframe and what engine are you
running?

FWIW,
I my radiator core is 5.5” thick x 5.5” high x 20” wide … it cools …

I like your approach
to the problem, I see nothing but positive outcomes in proving the concept (one
way or another). 3.5" is ( I believe) OK, the thick verses thin debate is like
comparing apples and oranges given the different applications of cars and
aircraft. I don't know what speed your looking at in cruise but 3.5" should be
good for a higher cruise. I believe some have used 3" cores successfully.
However I'm no expert but I look forward to the
outcomes.
Mike,
The
graphic is not a true representation of the final design. It merely depicts an
unmodified P-51 scoop that has been rendered in CAD, scaled 61% and rotated
lightly in the clockwise direction.
My
actual radiator design has a frontal area of 203 sq in and a depth of 3.5 in.
As
stated earlier, the purpose of the post was to announce my willingness to
share a software program that I had developed and found
useful.
