    Auxiliary Radiator Sizing

    I was wondering if anyone knew how to properly size a radiator? I'm looking to install one or two small auxiliary radiators from an after market company and mount them as such on my Focus ST: The kit you see in that picture is by Mishimoto. I would get this kit however there have been...

    CFD simulation for aux fuel kit

    What I have is an auxiliary fuel kit that is to be installed between the throttle body and the intake manifold. What I want to do is simulate where the atomized fuel would end up in the system at any given air flow rate. Would anyone be able to recommend me a good CFD program to accomplish this...

    Knee Speed/ Velocity Split for damper

    Hey guys I'm trying to figure out the ideal knee speed or velocity split for a particular car that I'm designing. What I'm trying to do is find the knee speed (or crossover speed) of my damper that directly relates to the crossover point in the displacement transmissiblity graph (SQUARE ROOT OF...

    Selecting appropriate damper

    I've been a bit lost figuring out what damper I should be using for the front suspension I am designing. Right now I'm running a wheel rate of 60 lbf/in at the front with a ride frequency of 1.2254 Hz. The front is also supporting a sprung mass of 391.68 lbf. Comfort is the end requirement of...

    Determining damping coefficient of a shock

    Have a couple shocks that I want to test for their damping coefficients. Does anyone know any good testing methods that can be done without using highly sophisticated measuring devices to determine the damping coefficient?

    Purchasing steering knuckle

    I'm designing geometry for the front suspension of a RWD car and I'm looking to buy from a supplier that makes steering knuckles for double wishbone suspension however, I can't seem to find a proper catalog that specifies dimensions such as KPI angle, spindle length, etc. Can anyone suggest a...

    Roll camber

    Right now I'm trying to establish my front view swing arm (fsva) length for my SLA front suspension. fsva depends on roll camber which is given by the equation: roll camber = wheel camber angle/chassis roll angle. Easy to apply but I'm finding difficulty in determining what my wheel camber...
