Sorry if this is to basic of a question. I'm trying to find a formula that will describe a viscous, but compressible fluid. This would just be a generic formula as a starting point. I'm trying to describe the variability of densities through this fluid. The closest thing I can find is a...

I don't think I am bad at math.. sure the things i use infrequently I might have to get a quick refresher in once in a while, but As far as getting accurate and precise answers, I have no problem there. It just feels to me like, all I'm doing is quantifying things, and not really laying out the...

So, I don't really know if I can explain this the right way... I use math every day. mainly basic type stuff. Lots of geometry, some trig, huge amounts of ratios... nothing outside the relm of high school stuff. (I do engineering for injection molding) i really enjoy math, and I have no...

...so in other words, you guys don't have a clue.. thanks.

the physics of how n2o is compressed is what i want to get into. how much pressure "would it take" to make it a liquid.. just curious really. cylinder pressures could easily surpass 5000 psi. And believe it or not, there is frost on the throttle bodies and lower intake runner after a pass...

My theory is that there is not to much heat in the engine. you have super cold fuel and super cold nitrous that absorb a lot of that heat, but I am using ALOT of nitrous which means I am using ALOT of fuel. which means there is ALOT of cold going in the chamber. also this is a 14krpm bike...

well thanks for the advice, but I am way beyond what either of those have to offer... not so sound cocky, its just that those sources don't go deep into the physics of what's happening at the level of nitrous I am using. not to mention that most of the information out there is just plain wrong.

...ok, well I guess I can do that.. The problem is in a high RPM internal Combustion Engine, with nitrous oxide. You have to know a little about how nitrous works in an engine, but basically it increase the burn speed and supplies more oxygen to the mix, meaning you can burn more fuel...

i think there is a reaction happening.. (well actually stalling) for a brief period and i think that is causing an issue. so I am trying to figure out if my theory is possible. I am not really sure how to word things like they make sense in my brain...

..sure, if that's what its called. so is it possible to raise the pressure and reduce the volume fast enough to out run that speed? more specifically, what would happen to the gas that didnt get the pressure distributed THROUGH it, but is surrounded by it... (also this situation...

Hey guys. First off, let me say that I am in no way a science expert. I like to read about new things, and stay up on the lastest happenings. I have a good general understanding of physics and chemistry, but not where i would like to be. anyways here is my question. I've always read that...
