roger Regular Registered: June 2002	Re: Davies Craig EWP Tue, 10 February 2004 04:59 The power being released by using a an EWP is a misconception. Yes the crank may not be driving it, but what is driving it is ultimately the alternator which is driven of the crank. the load the EWP places on the alternator/crank to produce a similar flow to a mechanical water pump would be very similar possible more with the losses in power conversion (mechnical(alternator)-electrical - mechanical(water pump)). Similar arguments are made about thermo fans, and I am yet to see conclusive evidence of a power gain. The best use of thermo fans is when it can supplement mechanical cooling or when the space available is to tight for a mechanical fan. Same applies to EWP if the space available fouls with a mechanical water pump. Or if standard water pump cannot be found in good mechanical order at a reasonable price. Otherwise I wouldn't bother. Changing the water flow rate to a greater flow rate could have negative affect on the colling efficiency of the system. The flow rate will be dependent on heat exchanger design(radiator) and the desired engine inlet and outlet temperature. In other words don't change it because you think a greater flow rate is going to be better. Hope all this makes sense [Report message to a moderator]
