The other day we had a discussion about dry sump systems, tank designs etc. Today I was wasting time on the computer, a favorite past time, and stumbled across a dry sump oil pump maker who had a video of air entrainment in the return oil. And of course a solution for that... here is the link to a very short video... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=noO16P5vSwQ Several things are apparent 1) holy crap! that's a lot of air, 2) holy crap!, the air stays int eh oil a long time, 3) holy crap!, you need the air oil separator,4) oil just looks like it comes down the outlet, none of this fancy swirling to eliminate air, 5) scavenge pumps ad a LOT of air to the oil...6) don't use a see through tank, lol... larry -- ______________________________ drmayf Worlds Fastest Sunbeam, period. 204.913 mph flying mile 210.779 mph exit speed _______________________________________________ Land-speed@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive |
