wet flow bench
(OP)
Anyone care to discuss wet flow testing cylinder heads? Seems this is a new topic to talk about with Superflow/Mondello coming out with a kit to add to dry flow benches. Lots of positive feedback so far, I am thinking about building a rendition of it for my 600 bench. Anyone with knowledge of how this unit works care to speak up? Wondering what they do to introduce the liquid into the airstream, sounds like it uses a pump spray it into the airstream. Ideas? D





RE: wet flow bench
Do wet benches just try to incorperate the effects of the introduced fuel on VE or do they try to also predict fuel distribution within the airstream.
I presume a non flamable fluid is used for safety reasons

this link shows the unit. I am wondering if anyone has seen one in action and can add some insight to how it works. D
RE: wet flow bench
you don't need to always need to use epoxy in playing with modifications ..you can use real quality molding clay to quickly change shapes in ports , especially chambers
to observe patterns
and since you are blowing thru intake ports , its easier probing with velocity probe and visual viewing, easier access
flow direction and swirl patterns instantly showup
and will varify readings you weren't able to visualize before

RE: wet flow bench
I understand your setup, except for the placement of your pressure tappings, can you clearify that point for me?
