river Forums Junkie Location: Land of Oz Registered: June 2004	Re: Exhaust Myth... Fact or Fiction? Sat, 12 March 2005 23:33 Hi, Good topic and interesting info. In reference to aircraft, specifically the WW2 fighters... these engines were supercharged and they wanted the exhaust out asap and with the air being forced in (via the supercharger) the smallest possible exhaust pipes were the most effective. Also in these aircraft and especially being wartime, there was little concern for noise and, as in all aircraft design, weight was an issue and large exhaust pipes just added weight. However, for night flying operations there were large baffles fitted to the exhausts to dampen the flames and also to hide the red-glow from the exhaust stacks. Nothing like a big red-glowing and flaming exhaust on your plane to show the enemy where you were. In the post-war period where the big radial piston engines reigned supreme, the exhausts were altered to provide considerable additional thrust to enhance the planes performance. seeyuzz river [Report message to a moderator]
