    Exponential Bell Curves & Runner Efficiency

    I have really tried to pin down runner inlets for combustion engines in order to reduce the coefficient of discharge. I can't quite put my thumb on optimal though and would like any help or expertise you can offer. Here is what I've found...(I think) Round bell mouths exponentially reduce...

    I'm looking at applying a rubber laminate to an aluminium pulley that continues to slip. I'm stuck wondering about which rubbers produce the best coefficient of friction against other rubbers. Its a belt driven system i'm not exactly sure of the belts content. Also could anyone clarify the...

    Imperical resource for belmouth DC

    I'm Looking for an empirical resource of tested bell mouth entries on many different diameters of pipe that show the discharge coefficient of that pipe at different pressures so I have a good rule of thumb to begin testing with, or I guess the alternative (and highly optimistic) approach... is...

    A little exhaust design indecision.

    I'm trying to design a new exhaust system for my Miata, and in this venture I’ve research a multitude of books but they all lead me down the road of build it and test it. I find myself wondering if there are any exhaust companies out there that TRULY spend a large amount of money on R&D to make...
