Ed,
Great job. Wish I'd been more alert at the forum at Tracy's. Anyway, I just
had another brain fart.
The time it takes the FAW to get from one port to another is a function of
Temp. The time you WANT it to take is a function of RPM. You would like to
have DIE at several temperatures and RPMs but since you can't control the temp,
the RPM will be a function of whatever temp you end up with that day. What if
you had two each primary and secondary injectors - one at the top of the runner
and one at the flange or in the block or wherever (where it is now). If you
could bias the fuel injected between the two injectors, the heat of vaporization
of the fuel would have a big impact on charge temp and might very well make
intake temp (and therefore Tr) controllable.
I don't know how big an engineering challenge it would be to vary the fuel
delivered to "upper" and "lower" injectors so as to control the intake temps,
but perhaps it could be done with fuel pressure. It would be arguably more
reliable to do it electronically by biasing the pulse width of the injection
event between the injectors, but any way you do it, controlling intake temp
might turn out easier to accomplish than modulating the runner length.
Some brain farts are just brain farts .... Jim S.
