I shape some foam cores to give me the diffusion shape I want and to match the opening and core area. I then lay over 2-3 layers of medium weight (9lbs?) of fiberglass. If using a type of foam that the resin dissolves, then I use duct tape to cover the foam. Its somewhat touchy getting the opening of the duct and the cowl to perfectly match. Someone, I think Bill is using a two part approach. Builds the opening duct as part of the cowling and the back half of the duct separately. Then when it puts the cowl the front part (attached to cowl) simply fits up to the back part attached to the core. Bill, got any photos. I do too much experimenting with intakes to make any part of mine a permanent part of the cowl {:>) Ed Ed Anderson Rv-6A N494BW Rotary Powered Matthews, NC eanderson@carolina.rr.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bob Perkinson" To: "Rotary motors in aircraft" Sent: Monday, February 06, 2006 3:19 AM Subject: [FlyRotary] Re: Hose size for the coolant > Ed, > How did you make the transition peaces between the cowling and the > radiator > cores, what material did you use.
