Here's an interesting cooler set up, done on a 3.0 245hp engine running in cali heat with no issues. Done for an original /6 that the owner didn't want cut up for a front cooler.
What do you guys think? BTW before you totally knock it it was done by Henry Schmidt at Supertec, so the builder does have some credibility.(IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/forums.pelicanparts.com-26-1286650724.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/forums.pelicanparts.com-26-1286650846.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/forums.pelicanparts.com-26-1286650846.2.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/forums.pelicanparts.com-26-1286650846.3.jpg) |

a 200 degree surface can put out about 320 btu's an hour per sq/ft.
figure the surface area of the cooler, calculate the cubic ft. per hour going through that fan, figure the heat transfer/delta T equation taking into account the pressure and water content of the air and you will likely find that the amount of btu's transferred per second won't even be enough to get you 1 degree of air tempertaure increase. i've sized a few heating systems in the past year, meh |
