Hi Folks, Could I ask anyone who wants to contact me re. the above, to do so off list ( paddyclarke@lineone.net ), or by 'phone? Many thanks, Paddy Paddy Clarke Europa XS - 404 G-KIMM ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 09:47:25 AM PST US Subject: Europa-List: 914 Mono ground cooling From: Has anyone measured the velocity of air coming out of radiators when 914 Monowheel is on ground with motor at idle and slight above? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Fiddling last night with a 5.5" folding propeller on electric motor with a mock up duct on water radiator, flow coming out of the radiator was to say the least impressive, inlet size was between PTAG and Factory, prop is inside intake by about 4". Weight of prop and motor probably 4 oz., when blades folded frontal area is bout diameter of US Quarter (27.6mm). Pitch speed aft of prop when blowing in inlet at about 20mph was probably over 60mph. I need to bring to hangar measurement instruments for speed and amp draw. An order is in with my partner Wayne to bring over 2 leaf blowers for same high velocity testing. Side benefit may be constipation, running the motor backwards at a very very low power setting easily constipates all flow through radiator with 20mph at intake which would equate to help warm things up on ground, I am pretty certain in-flight a low setting would do the same.
