    Wind turbine cut in speed decrease.

    my aim is to lower the cut in speed of the horizontal turbines. I know wind speed has a brutal effect on turbine output, so I want to use horns to speed up air. I plan to put a horizontal axis turbine in the midle of the hexagon You see on the pic. Each side of the hexagon is like a...

    Modelling a ram air intake on a car

    WOW! You sure know something, that's for sure. From the article it seems that the size of the intake does not mather, as it will fill up with air, so gigant size will make no difference. Other thing I would be interested is how.. do these ram air intakes behave while accelarateing...

    elektronic chargers--- no way. Consider that my old 1.8 ford consumes at 3000 RPM about 2700 liter of air every single minute. Just moving this volume of air if hard. Hard to achieve the airflow. Besides that I need no power gain. I just want to ride as cheap as possible. On my...

    Modelling a ram air intake on a car

    That pitot pipe is really helpfull, other question is what happens when some accelerates. about small differences.. this car is old. When I bought it, it consumed 7.5-9 liter deiesel every 100 km. I'm down to 5.2-5.5 with a big handfull of small changes. for example, the cooling water tubes...

    Modelling a ram air intake on a car

    christ... Thats sounds a real complex thing. Well, efficiency is what I'm after. I done some work on the exhaust and some other things, so this 1991 make old ford consumes 5.2-5.5 liter diesel every 100 km. I travel about 150 km each day to my work and back (its a total there and back)...

    Modelling a ram air intake on a car

    Sorry for such an easy question LOL.. So.. I need a bit of help, I was thinking of modelling a ram air intake on a car. But it seems like I'm not educated enough.. What I know is: the car goes with 100 km/h speed, the engine consumes 1800 liters of air / minute, and the intake at...
