    I feel like you're looking at the airflow around the intake wrong.
    Instead of looking at where the air goes (some of it diverting to the side of the intake) consider why it goes to the side. Pressure difference makes air move, if there isn't any pressure difference air won't move. If the air is diverting around the side of your intake it's because there's higher pressure in front of the intake and lower pressure to the sides.
    There's two separate things at work here: A velocity stack is designed to take relatively still air and get it into a tube as efficiently as possible by minimising the turbulence as air coming from the sides tries to make the turn into the pipe. It's purpose is to prevent turbulence and maintain laminar flow.
    A ram air intake's purpose is different, it's there to turn kinetic energy into pressure. You probably want a ram air intake into an airbox of sufficient size and then the engine drawing air through a velocity stack from the airbox which will be at positive pressure from the ram air. A jet engine intake is a ram air intake but a lot of the design in a jet engine intake is to slow air down from near transonic (or supersonic in some cases) to subsonic so the engine's compressors can handle it. This won't be a problem at road, or even race, car speeds.
    My guess would be a velocity stack style intake on the most vertical part of the front bumper (stagnation point) feeding a tube that increases in cross sectional area as it goes to an airbox would be an your best bet. The rate at which the tube feeding the airbox gets wider would need to be calculated to maximize pressure recovery.

    • @SRDmotorsports
      @SRDmotorsports  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yes hence my examples are the lesser super sonic ones not an sr71 or an f16
      and on to the intake “why” it goes to the side
      All I shared is running a velocity stack front faced at the track isnt an “ideal” thing to ise
      Like you mentioned and as I mentioned in the video it was meant to be efficient at around “still” or “stagnant” air not “forward” facing like most Honda racers do,
      On the dyno yeah it helps as the car is strapped down…pardon me if the English sentence structuring isn’t ideal on the video 😇

  • @TassieLorenzo
    @TassieLorenzo ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Nice video! I still think your radius might be too large on your intake at 14:04 , as we see on the forward facing F1 car intakes (above the driver) at 9:07 to 10:20 , the radius on the inside in particular seems to be pretty small. I don't think you need a velocity stack where it goes down to a circular profile inside the duct, but rather an efficient contraction profile that's perhaps more smoothly blended into overall contraction as it shrinks down. That's a really cool intake any how though!

    • @SRDmotorsports
      @SRDmotorsports  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yep the stack shape isn’t really needed for forward facing… the stack inside though was mainly to aid in reducing the contraption into a circular pipe, I just did mention I used a small stack as shape source for it
      hence the oval intake I made is mainly for max cross section available and def worth a few tests :)

  • @JCnordic2983
    @JCnordic2983 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Enjoy your videos thank You. So the theory is your velocity stacks with stagnant air or an enclosed department you run a flared velocity stack with taper And in a forward facing you don't put a taper just a Just a radius entry with no taper?

    • @SRDmotorsports
      @SRDmotorsports  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Kinda yes almost like that…
      in forward facing atleast based on datalogs I got for the Honda b20 we did
      At 12.1sec and over 114mph it was still not enough that it still showed -0.4 reading
      A vacuum when we know at those speeds if all is good we should be slightly above atmospheric sadly nobody talks about that or shares it 😂
      We used the cf 4in stack on that datalog

      and and and... tbh aside from switching to dohc? another idea came up is that switching to a Turbo set up (sohc) as im contemplating what will be more enticing to do first cuz in the end id do both 🤣
      and that idea of building a plenum for turbo ITB is indeed glowing in my list 😏 the main advantage here is freedom of shape and no TB linit from charge pipe to plenum...

    as u said velocity stack is meant for stagnant air
    from your cfd we can see pressure after velocity stack is increasing
    and as we all know air like to travel from high to low pressure
    as we have high pressure in front of the car
    we want the opening to not close but open up
    so we have lets say 4" opening to suck high pressure air in we want the tube after opening to increase in size to lets say 5" this way air will be sucked into the opening
    best way really is to utilzie air box
    so we have opening same dimater as intake piping that is leading to air box where air expands and lowers pressure
    and from there after the filter a velocity stack that will suck in the air into the manifold

    most often we see increase in power from intakes mounted in headlights or bumper because of colder air not as much from amount of air
    especially on headlights air actually is sucked out because body of the car makes it travel to the side
    and as we get colder air it is better for the effeciency of the combustion but we dont get increase in pressure inside of the intake manifold
    i installed tube that is sucking air in front of radiator into the airbox
    compared to original intake that was runing 960mbar
    im getting 988mbar when above 30kmh
    but the air that is hitting radiator have other ways of avoiding the intake pipe because radiator is not sealed but even with that i got an increase in pressure
    but i have to service the intake monthly because airfilter is getting clogged with sand and pretty much everything that is on the road

    • @SRDmotorsports
      @SRDmotorsports  2 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      it’s also the length of the intake that helps
      but with a proper one I have seen datalog of increased pressure and it’s logged with 2 diff pressure sensor locations etc
      even on the dyno the increase in power isn’t because it’s cold only but also the length…
      Yes the headlight location isn’t most ideal as shown in the video it gets swayed to the aside (airflow)

    I'm just learning this stuff, and it's pretty awesome that you're going down this path. You're right, everyone can learn it and make a more efficient motor. I'm personally working on a Jeep 258, lol. But air flow is air flow- I can't rely on speed to get velocity, but have to use other tricks for Low end TQ and fill cylinders. It's just for fun/hobby, I don't compete.
    Have you ever read about something that would maybe help the front facing stack? I could be way off here, lol, as you don't see this in front of jets or race cars, but maybe play around with shapes in FRONT of the hole, that split the air, then behind it (where intake would be) gather up that air from it being split. Check this vid out. Even the block shape, a Velocity stack behind it may "gather up" that turbulence behind the square, tear shape may work better. Dunno, again, I may be totally off, lol.

      @@SRDmotorsports my original plan was to adapt a velocity stack to the intake. But now I’m going to extend the inlet about 2 inch’s forward of the front. Get clean air that hasn’t been affected by the boundary layer and misses the propeller by an inch while stacking air.

      thats funny cuz an initial design like that came from one of a schools "formula student" team etc but even more interesting the initial shape of the intake
      before the plenum resembles

      it is also one of the many thing i constantly research and follow... formula student teams/research as they usually have a fresh untainted perspective like that video you showed but isnt FSAE ofcourse i just meant the level of innovation is there :)
      now imagine the Intake design theory? + this ram air design? i havnt seen your vid prior but hmmm interesting right? :)
