1. Internal Radiator (score: 1): Author: "3liter" <saltfever@comcast.net>; Date: Mon, 2 May 2005 19:21:48 -0700; Dave D. since you have suggested a radiator inside of a water tank in the past, I was wondering what size is efficient? A water-to-water intercooler is certainly more efficient than an air-to-water r; /html/land-speed/2005-05/msg00025.html (7,497 bytes)

RE: Internal Radiator (score: 1): Author: "Dave Dahlgren" <ddahlgren@snet.net>; Date: Tue, 3 May 2005 05:32:50 -0400; We never tried to see how small we could make it. it is currently larger thatit needs to be.

Re: Internal Radiator (score: 1): Author: Bryan Savage <b.a.savage@earthlink.net>; Date: Tue, 03 May 2005 10:25:17 -0700; Going by what Dave said, it seams like the radiator from a Geo Metro in 6-8 gallons of water + alcohol, mixed to provide a 190 degree boiling point, should deal nicely with 500 hp.

5. Internal Radiator (score: 1): Author: "3liter" <saltfever@comcast.net>; Date: Tue, 3 May 2005 19:15:10 -0700; Dave et al, many thanks for responding. Hmm, your description raises a very interesting point. Since the cooling reservoir (not the closed-loop engine supply) is vented to atmosphere it will boil at; /html/land-speed/2005-05/msg00036.html (8,884 bytes)
6. Internal Radiator (score: 1): Author: "3liter" <saltfever@comcast.net>; Date: Tue, 3 May 2005 22:34:22 -0700; Not sure which "box" you are referring to Keith. The ambient coolant reservoir needs only enough water to absorb about 70% of the total engine heat. That size (gallons needed) can be calculated fairl; /html/land-speed/2005-05/msg00037.html (8,533 bytes)

You have both the BTU to raise the water to boiling and then the latent heat of vaporization.. Dave; /html/land-speed/2005-05/msg00038.html (9,833 bytes)
8. Re: Internal Radiator (score: 1): Author: Bryan Savage <b.a.savage@earthlink.net>; Date: Wed, 04 May 2005 11:34:05 -0700; The boiling point of water at 4500 feet is 203.9 degrees. I would add alcohol to the ambient tank to reduce that to about 180-185 and let the latent heat of vaporization carry away most of the energ; /html/land-speed/2005-05/msg00045.html (9,756 bytes)

Re: Internal Radiator (score: 1): Author: ARDUNDOUG@aol.com; Date: Wed, 4 May 2005 15:44:12 EDT; Elon, You've crewed on our roadster at Bonneville and the Lakes and are familiar with our cooling system.

10. RE: Internal Radiator (score: 1): Author: "Dave Dahlgren" <ddahlgren@snet.net>; Date: Thu, 5 May 2005 05:04:45 -0400; Why would you want a un-pressurized cooling system? Or do you run the tank with water pressure in it? Most of the tanks with no radiator i have seen were vented to the atmosphere. Those seem like a g; /html/land-speed/2005-05/msg00054.html (8,687 bytes)
11. Re: Internal Radiator (score: 1): Author: ARDUNDOUG@aol.com; Date: Thu, 5 May 2005 11:28:27 EDT; Dave, I've always felt that it would take a very specially constructed water wank to withstand 5+psi pressure such as is generated in most radiators. Our 15 gallon tank would prolly blow up like a ba; /html/land-speed/2005-05/msg00061.html (9,804 bytes)

Re: Internal Radiator (score: 1): Author: ARDUNDOUG@aol.com; Date: Thu, 5 May 2005 12:34:34 EDT; Keith, As I said earlier, given the fact that the average internal water tank won't handle much pressure without being specifically designed and built for it, the thermostat allows us to build heat i; /html/land-speed/2005-05/msg00066.html (8,264 bytes)
