bbaacchhyy Forums Junkie Location: Adelaide Registered: September 2003	Re: Intercooler piping Wed, 01 September 2004 02:29 kingmick wrote on Wed, 01 September 2004 12:17 bbaacchhyy not meaning to be rude but im guessing 18 and on your first car! to put what you said into the real world of cars and not text booking!a race car when it finishes a race it does a cool down lap! when you a racing or driving hard on the street everything gets hot ,but the under bonnet still has air flowing through it. so on the slower part of you street driving or racing the under bonnet temps lower. and the lighter something is the qicker it cools. things that heat soak are heavy like cast iron and billet steel and they take longer to come up to temp but take longer to cool. a little material heats quicker but also cools alot quicker so when you are going slower which is most of the time as even a race car goin flat strap around the track only has full throttle for about 35% of the whole lap or there abouts there is cool air rushing past the piping! how many stainless steel or steel radiator or intercoolers have you seen? theres a good reason for that. im just glad its this way otherwise my rolla would be 4 ton with lead intercooler etc. mick Oh dear. Can't be bothered separating out the issues here so I'll reply in one. No. 36 and at least 3 cars and 4 motorbikes (not a huge amount, but still, none were std.) Airframe fitter by trade, Ass Dip in Aerospace Engineering, BTech in Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering, Grad Dip in Manufacturing Management, employed as Senior Manufacturing Engineer at GMH. So what about a cool down lap ? Yes, the lighter something is the quicker it cools, but the rate depends on the material, shape, environment, temperature differential, and thermal characteristics of the surrounding environment. Been racing, and I was at FT more than 35% of the time. Try about 70 to 80%. 13B J Port RX2 Improved production race car. At no point did I say that steel should be used for cooling such as a radiator etc. I merely pointed out that for the AVERAGE car in the real world, the difference would be minimal. No where did I say that alloy was no good. Due to the higher thermal loads in racing, once the air gets past the radiator/IC/oil cooler it is HOT !! The reason for radiators etc. Hence the heat in the engine bay is lots. No cool air in there !!! Don't beleive, as I said before, climb under the bonnet and see. Or if that is too hard, just stick a thermocouple under there Sigh. Thats enough for now. Oh, and next time, use punctuation to make it easier to read. Please. [Report message to a moderator]
