LOL my friend LOL
Look, we are not testing drag coefficients here. And besides, I only have 192.5 HP at the wheel. So my nose, delicate and beautiful sensory instrument that it is, stays well inside.
3/16" dia pitot tube 12" out in front of the grill. Then 15 feet of 3/8 dia hose back to the meter. Got 3" of water @ 60 MPH and 5" of water @ 80 MPH. Then the tuck tape came loose and my needle did a jig.
I got 1" just driving across the parking lot in 2nd. That surprised me.
Real tests tomorrow.
3/16" pitot inside grill, pitot outside grill
1.0" pitot inside, and outside
3.0" dia PVC with a 4.0" long horn in free air stream
3.0" dia PVC with a 24.0" long horn in free air stream
3.0" dia PVC with a 4.0" long horn at top of windshield where air is high pressure.
My inH
2O meter is calibrated to 15 inches.
I do not have a properly calibrated flow measuring device but will use a medical flowmeter.
We may or may not get to Texas Thursday nite but by golly I will have collected a pile of useless data with which we can continue irritating the PHD's (real or imagined) on the Forum.
