Scaling blue prints on a internal combustion engine
Scaling blue prints on a internal combustion engine
(OP)
I was wondering if i purchased blue prints for a 9 cylinder model aircraft radial engine and scaled every part by 3 times the original size, would the engine still run and what problems would i run into.





RE: Scaling blue prints on a internal combustion engine
Your clearances would triple.
Power would increase roughly 9 times, (3 squared) while strength increases by only 3.

You are judged not by what you know, but by what you can do.
