Does anyone knows if the camping site will be held open during the seminar days?

You could get in touch with the people at Ricardo. They support the event and will give you few licenses of WAVE and limited support time if you put their logo on your car.

Hey Mike,

I'm really interested in a position like this. I'd really appreciate if you could send me some more information: manuel.sanchezp(at)gmail.com

A very old post this one, but what the hell... it's good to know what some mufflers are rated, if you know how they're tested. Yoshimura's RS-3 are rated 95 dB (20" away, at 45 deg from the tip, and...

Steve, although brake test is not an acceleration run the scrutineers made us take the brake test 3 times, even though we managed to lock the wheels in the 1st and 2nd run. They told us that they had...

I have a few doubts about turbine operation, anyone care to point me in the right direction?

How do I determine turbine operating point (expansion ratio & corrected gas flow). Turbotwig (kirk)...

Hey Dan G, I was looking at that spreadsheet you posted but I have some doubts about it, hope you could enlighten me.

When calculating the turbine corrected flow you use Exhaust Manifold Pressure...

Kirk, thanks for all the hints!
As for those hints:

1. I've been using EGT between 750ºC and 830ºC based mostly on what I've found in these forums, we have some thermocouples laying around in...

I have the aproximate air mass flow rate range through the compressor (based on %ve, density and engine's rpm), now with this values I go to the compressor map and with the corrected air mass flow...

What would be a reasonable volumetric efficiency for a 4 cyl. 600cc restricted motorcycle engine.. I'm guessing between 55%-65% depending on intake design?

And what volumetric efficiency should...

I was searching some info on EGT calculation and I found this equation in a spanish book:

egt = ( iamf / egmf ) * ( IT + ( LHV / (4 * afr * lambda * cp ) ) ) where:
