Later, I rebuilt a water pump with a Motorsport impellor and install a 6 bladed fan and I have not had puking since. “if it is not puking it is not over heating” I do pop the hood if I get into slow traffic to let hot air out.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>We all have a different take on the Tiger Cooling situation and we may all come up with a slightly different angle of approach.

I used exactly your suggestion, i.e. “Tiger Tom and tiger cooling study” and it was the first thing that popped up, lol. I have scanned it and will do a more detailed review for myself as a bit of time goes on. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I must say these experimenters did a pretty fair job at setting up and conducting the experiment and making comparisons. I am going to comment of the state of rigor for the experiment and what the, what I call missing, elements of the experiment, could mean to the final results. It is going to be long winded, a natural tendency of mine, lol. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>It was <i>not</i> very rigorous, in my opinion. Let me explain, lest I be pilloried. There are many parameters for the air and coolant conditions, the state of tune for the engine, that affect the results which do not seem to have been addressed as the “Why does it overheat at idle?” question, at least, I think that was the question. So, just who the dickens am I to question anything that these men did? Well, I spent 30+ years as a test engineer and manager for a large Aerospace company and did a <b>lot</b> of test analyses preceded by test design to make sure that the UUT was set up to produce the spec conditions and thus the results as nearly as perfectly as could be determined. What these testers did was pretty dad gummed good. <o:p></o:p></p><ol style='margin-top:0in' start=1 type=A><li class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3'>The first thing was just how bad was the engine over heating at idle? The conditions should have contained a detailed description of the same parameters used in the test. The atmospheric conditions, the absolute air temperature, the absolute air pressure (<u>not</u> baro), the humidity, and altitude, entering the system. The system is defined as everything surrounding the vehicle. Why is this important? Well, the conditions need to be replicated each time a test run is made. If you want to know that the changes made later have an effect, plus or minus. Take humidity, humid air has less air in it, lol. Water vapor is less dense that the atmospheric make up and that means that the heat transfer rate is altered. Wha? Yes, heat is absorbed by the <b>mass</b> of coolant flowing both in the system and then into the ambient air. The cooling air enthalpy and entropy can be calculated, with the help of ‘steam’ tables and charts with this data as to how well the ambient can cool something. Flow rate of the cooling air is a <b>key element</b> but so is the <b>actual mass</b> of the air (with humidity) that flows through the radiator and into the engine compartment, and then into the surrounding ambient air. Heat only flows from hot to cold and the smaller the difference, the less heat is removed. For instance: the air flow rate can be measured at some altitude with a low pressure but at seal level with the same conditions of temp have less mass. Again, it is <b>the mass</b> of and the particulars of the air’s make up that is important If the test was conducted in a closed room for the idle issue, then the air was a few degrees warmer. If outside, the temp and abs pressure (psia) is needed along with the humidity to know how well the system was performing. <o:p></o:p></li><li class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3'>The engine coolant needs to be examined in detail. As has been stated, water is the VERY best heat transfer fluid. Adding radiator antifreeze is more than just to prevent the coolant from freezing, it also increases the boiling point. But it also adds protection to the iron and aluminum and other metallic components through which the coolant flows. An analysis for the constituents of the coolant could be made to determine just how effective it is as a heat transfer mechanism both in the engine and radiator at operating conditions. The flow rate through the radio need quantifying: a flow meter placed into the radiator water pump feed would be an excellent place to start. The flow rate with coolant out and the exit temperature and pressure measured, And the ambient conditions at that time, a better analysis of any changes can be made. It should be noted that there are two other methods of cooling that come into play as well. That is convection and conduction. The conduction of heat through the block, the oil in the pan and pan, the head(s), and anything that has coolant in it all come into play, so al the heat transfer coefficients of the materials need to be acquired along with their surface area and external conditions found in order to get an accurate analysis. Another is radiation from the surfaces of the engine. The heat signatures or the infrared heat so to speak send heat out as photons heating everything the radiation touches. And convection, the air that cools the exterior of the engine as well as the engine bay must have air flow to remove the heat: those surfaces all need to be monitored as well. <o:p></o:p></li><li class=MsoListParagraph style='margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3'>Lastly, for me anyway, is the state of turn of the engine. The air fuel ration needs to be monitored and the engine put into the best operating performance it can achieve. For instance, a lean burn is hotter, so if the AFR is high then as most racer know, the system will melt pistons (been there, done that). The stochiometric air fuel ratio needs to be the same for every test. At the best burn value. Even a too rich burn can cause excess heat. The engine air inlet temp and air pressure should be monitored for analysis of fuel burn condition that leads to unexpected heat being generated. Flow meters on the engine air intake and fuel as well as air and fuel temperature are needed. <o:p></o:p></li></ol><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:red;background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow'>Was the experiment invalid? No, it was not. It provided useful, information that many had not through about and there are things that were made to that should have changed the results more than they appeared to change. I congratulate them for the effort they put into this</span><span style='color:red'>! <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>If I was to do this experiment today, I would use a lot of electronics for concise parameter recording and then do a deeper analysis of the effect of the changeable components. I would get myself an Arduino Mega 2560 module, a pile of temp sensors to stock on everything , a handful of pressure sensors, water and fuel flow meters, A good thermodynamics textbook and go at it. The Arduino IDE has a serial data output capability which can be recorded as well as a serial plotter which can display and record all the data channels virtually simultaneously. All can be exported to excel if needed for individual parameter display. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Or just drive and remind yourself that this car was designed a long time ago an dstuff just sometimes has to be accepted, lol. I would consider doing a repeat of the work done to date with my additions, except for the notion that I am not in the twilight of my years, but rather closer to the cinderela time, the clock is ticking now for sure at me approaching 81 years of age and slowing way, way, down. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Mayf, twfs 210.779 mph out the back door… <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b>From:</b> Tigers <<a href="mailto:tigers-bounces@autox.team.net">tigers-bounces@autox.team.net</a>> <b>On Behalf Of </b>LARRY PAULICK via Tigers<br><b>Sent:</b> Sunday, July 3, 2022 6:40 AM<br><b>To:</b> Owain Lloyd <<a href="mailto:owain.lloyd@gmail.com">owain.lloyd@gmail.com</a>><br><b>Cc:</b> <a href="mailto:tigers@autox.team.net">tigers@autox.team.net</a><br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [Tigers] Evans Waterless Cooling<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Dr. M, check the Tigers East Alpine East website or do a web search for Tiger Tom and tiger cooling study.

I then gave up and reluctantly drained maybe half of the the costly coolant out, replacing it with plain water so I could get home.

From my experience I’d say one would have to be exceptionally brave to use it, especially with a stock radiator system or with a more powerful engine which will place even more demand on the Tiger’s weak cooling system.
