    I would assume NACA ducts also fell out of fashion for fighter aircraft due to the transition to supersonic speeds? I don't want to imagine what kind of weird expansion fans and shocks would would get with a NACA duct at those speeds.

    Nice video, I knew what/who NACA were but I was wrong about the ducts. I didn't know about the vortices, I just figured the widening shape of the duct was to accelerate the air as it entered into the car.

    Can you explain in detail how they work when turned around? I know that they did it at Nascar for low pressure outlets when they found a loophole in the rules. But why exactly is this backwards form better for integration then a normal vent

    They are still used in aviation as air intake of PACK (Pneumatic Air Cycle Kit)s which are used to condition the air in airliners, inlet of B737's APU, vent surge tank inlets, ECU cooling duct inlets on engibe cowls etc.

  • @ruandurand3971

    I am currently using a hybrid design at work on an aircraft where you try and compromise between the naca duct and a pitot duct. As the naca duct does not supply enough ram air pressure for the internal cooling but reduces the drag of a fully protruding pitot duct.

    • @TricksterJ97
      @TricksterJ97 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I once designed a hybrid for use as a turbine engine inlet. A pitot type would have been best, but clearance in the launcher wouldn’t allow it. It worked very well.

    I've just noticed that rhe naca has the same shape as concorde's wings. That explains how concorde generated such good vortices at slow speed and high angles of attack.

  • @RB26N
    @RB26N 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Good one, always wondered how they worked.
    A question if you don't mind,
    why GT3/GTE race cars are much more pitch sensitve than F1 cars ?
    my logic is that GT3/GTE cars run quite high ride height , so to gain highest downforce level manufacturer make them peaky.
    so the car gain downforce rapidly as ride height decreases via aero load.

    • @BSport320
      @BSport320  2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Simple answer is because GT3 cars have a flat floor with a splitter at the front. Formula cars have a front wing and the flat floor only starts underneath the driver.
      But as always, it also highly depends on the design of the cars...

    So ram air intake is still better and NACA ducts are for pure aesthetics?

    • @BSport320
      @BSport320  2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Depends on what you want. Ram air ducts for high pressure but with drag penalty, NACA duct for low drag with a bit less intake pressure.

    • @ruandurand3971
      @ruandurand3971 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It all depends on how much airflow you need to be ducted. High stagnation pressure = pitot duct. Low stagnation pressure = naca duct. But you do get hybrid designs that is a combination of the 2 to find a nice middle ground of drag reduction and stagnation pressure.
