ack,

I was thinking more along thses lines.

I was also thinking of using aluminum though glass would be easier to mold
the curves..

| I like the idea of vanes in the oil air duct outlet...but does it work on
| something of this size, as opposed to a wind tunnel? If so, how many sets
of
| vanes are appropriate for the Velocity oil outlet and how wide should they
| be? (W in the drawing)
|
| I've attached a sample drawing that shows 3 sets of three vanes for a
| hypothetical 90* bend. Is this how the vanes should be oriented to the
bend?
|
| Do we need the vanes before, in the middle and after the bend? The
Velocity
| application seems to be less dramatic than the drawing.
|
| If I'm going to try this I'd like to get it right the first time (I'm not
a
| fluid dynamics engineer). Why not just use aluminum sheet for the vanes?
| It's lighter and much easier to retrofit.
|
| Keep 'em cool!
