Subject: | Lycoming design improvements |
--> RV-List message posted by: "R.A.S" <deruiteraircraftservices@btinternet.com>
apparently lycoming is improving it's design of the piston family engines:
a quote from an article from the EAA Airventure Today says it all:
""Lycoming points to the success of its IO-390-X, introduced at EAA
AirVenture 2003, as proof of the success of its technology plan. "This is
the most powerful, turbocharged, normally aspirated engine we've ever
brought to market," said Wolf.""
That's a truly amazing technological achievement, a turbocharged normally
aspirated engine.......

Hey Dan and listers,
Vans sell two types of heat selector boxes, you probably have either the
1st or 2nd one. The 1st is all aluminum, no good in a fire. The second
is an aluminum box with a stainless steel flapper valve which should
keep fire out of the cockpit except for the fact that the aluminum will
melt or deform allowing the flapper valve to fall away from the 2 +"
hole in the firewall creating a flame thrower. There is a 3rd.
alternative, an all stainless box and flapper valve which I purchased
from EPM.AV Corp. http://www.epm-avcorp.com/
I have received my heat box and it is first class. Very well made and
cost $96 which is only $23 or $33 more than the one's that Vans sells.
but according to EPM.AV's web site the stainless one will stand up to a
2000 degree fire.
a blurb from their web site
"With an all stainless heat selector box design now in hand, our
attention turned to testing the unit in a simulated "real life"
application. Paul built a mockup firewall and attached it to a stainless
steel heat selector box and proceeded to apply flames from a propane
weed burner affectionately named "Puff the Magic Dragon". "Puff" spits
out 2 ft. flames in the neighborhood of 1800 to 2000F.
Immediately the temperature sensor output signal in the firewall mockup
raced past 500F. Within two minutes the firewall temperature was over
1000 degrees and the heat selector box began glowing dull red. In about
three minutes the firewall temperature stabilized just below 1400
degrees and the selector box was glowing bright red.
Some surface scaling was present but the unit did not melt. After ten
minutes "Puff" was extinguished. The stainless selector box held up well
as expected. What happened next caught our attention!
We attached an all aluminum heat selector box to the mockup firewall and
reproduced the same flame test. Within eight seconds of flame impacting
the aluminum selector box the frame changed shape and lost substantial
strength. The firewall temperature at this point was approximately
400F. Within sixteen seconds, the "flapper" valve melted, allowing test
flames to enter the test cockpit area. Within one minute the selector
box melted away, with only the mounting bolts remaining.
The dramatic and rapid meltdown of the aluminum box inspired concerns
about the time available to shut down engine operation and cut off fuel
flow."
They also sell stainless fire wall penetrations that you can check out
as wiring holes can be a deadly source of a cabin fire in an engine fire
situation

for my RV-9A with Capacitive sensors. I found that Ralph was knowledgeable,

With all the discussion of strobes, I started digging into the regs and have
a question. FAR23.1401=A0=A0=A0Anticollision light system ( found here:
http://tinyurl.com/3k6g3 ), is this the strobe or the red beacon? How many
strobes do I really need? Two or three? I was planning a rudder position
light but Van=B9s also sells an aft light/strobe combo. Do I need the combo?

I don't think you ever will Mike. In my case with 0-360, I had to shorten
the inlet floors a lot and the bends, both the floors and the sidewalls,
required to match up with the cowl were not in the places shown on the plans.
I
concluded that the plans are more of a generic guide. I used a lot of cardboard
patterns to figure out the necessary geometry. Sorry, I don't have any

I hate to sound like a spoil sport and may be totally off base in this
discussion; but, I've just got to ask the question, anyway. Have any of you
ever given any thoughts about what the cowl is made of? I think the heat
selector box is going to be the last thing I'll worry about if a fire in the
engine compartment is hot enough to melt the box. That cowl is going to be
going up in smoke. Right behind it will be a canopy melting in my lap. I'm
not going to be worried about a fire in a two inch hole. I'm going to worry
about how to get away from that melting plastic! One guy has already
experienced this problem and didn't make it. He was a great RV-list
contributor, too. Of course, I've been known to be wrong about these things
and try to learn from my mistakes. :-)

Subject: | Alternate Air Source on RV4 |
--> RV-List message posted by: "Jerry Isler" <jlisler@alltel.net>
I have a filtered air box from Van's that I am installing on an RV-4 and I
also have a carb heat muff from Robbins. The question is how do you connect
the two together? The filtered air box, as designed, has a flapper valve
that opens or closes a 'D' shaped hole in the top of the box for the
alternate air source. This source is the heated air that comes past the
cylinders underneath the engine. I do not see a good way to connect a 2"
SCAT hose to the top of the box and over to the heat muff. The problem is
the way the actuator arm is installed on the flapper valve. It protrudes
through the 'D' shaped hole so you cannot cover it up with a hose connector.
Is the heated air from the cylinders all I need for carb heat?
Thanks,

Simply put, you need to be able to see at least one of the strobes all the
way around the plane, all 360 degrees. So...
If you use the combo lights that stick out the end of the wing tips that
you can see from behind the plane, you don't need the tail light on the rudder.
If you use the lights that are recessed into the forward corner of the wing
tip that you cannot see from behind the plane, then you need the tail light.

Van's sells an adapter that makes exactly the connection you need. It has a
2" flange for SCAT tubing on one end and the other end rivets to your
airbox. The airbox end is raised slightly off of the airbox, and I can think
of a couple of reasons for that, but I dunno if they are the *real* reasons.
There are a couple of pic's at this link:
http://home.hiwaay.net/~sbuc/journal/engine4.html but they don't give a
tremendous view of the details of the adapter.

In contrast, my inlet floors & sides have no bends - they weren't needed. I
had to cut almost 2" off the floor length.
Use the plans only to understand the concepts of how/why it's done. Then do
whatever is needed to make your individual installation work.

A gasoline fire will be fed from a gasoline source ( the carburator/amd
or fuel lines)which is at the bottom of the engine. The air flow
through the cowling is from the air intake , through the baffles , then
down past the firewall and out through the exit at the rear of the
cowl. The cowling , at least at the air intake will be experiencing
relatively cool air vs. the temp of the air where the gasoline fire is
burning. Shutting off the fuel pump and fuel valve could stop the fire
before it spread to the fiberglass cowliing.

I just received Knuckolls' alternating flasher from the B&C website. Cost $25
including shipping. It took me about 15 minutes to install it mostly because
I had already wired up my switches in anticipation of installing a flasher. I
didn't want to shell out the buck for the other wig wag units (which are very
nice...I'm just a cheapskate.) The thing works great. Four wires, some fast-on
connectors, and a very small module; very easy to install. It's not adjustable,
you get one flash pattern and that's it. It's working well for me.

Yes, sorry. I knew what I was thinking I guess I can't expect everyone else to
know. This was in fact, a landing light flasher that specifically alternately
flashes your landing and taxi lights. My landing lights are Duckworks lights
in the leading edge. Using the standard bulb that shipped with the kit circa
1999.

1-What the crossover tube is for?
2-How is the oil supplied to the tube?
3-In a fixed pitch application the oil runs back down the crank to the
sump....in a C/S application, is the oil just 'trapped' in the hollow crank?
4-Is the tube necessary?
