The chit chat about aero using leaf blowers etc has reminded me that I
need to get a leaf blower to do some testing with. Not aero but mass air
flow sensor testing. I want to stack up 2 vane air flow meters and one
old fors mass air flow meter and a throttle body in one long string and
then draw through them with a leaf blower or similar. More flow is
better so a big leaf blowere would work really well. What I am having
trouble with is getting ratings in cfm...every mfg has mph but since I
don't know the duct size cannot determine the cfm from that. How about
some of you hguys with leaf blowers, take a look at teh speed rating and
then measure the outlet size diameter and shoot me a note that way I can
determine the cfm and maybe start looking for a particular model. This
is all in support of adding a larger vane air flow meter to the
screaming 61 cubic inches of turbo terror that my wife will ultimately
drive on the salt. No rush, anythime this morning befpore 9 am pst will
do, lol...nah I'd be happy to get data from you at anytime.
mayf
