Subject: [FlyRotary] Re: K&W Streamline duct vs 7 deg optimum duct
Good question, Joe. I honestly don't have a clue. The key (according to
K&W)
appears to be having the side wall diverge just enough so that the pressureincrease along the wall (caused by friction slowing the airstream) is
matched by the centrifugal force of the air flowing around the curve of the
wall.
Another conundrum. What is the effect of a twisted plenum?
Nearly all the pictures I've seen show a radiator that is something other than 90degrees to the intake. Often, the radiator face and intake are parallel.
