Has anyone tryed using a bar and plate constructed core to be used as a radiator in a motor vehicle, high output apps. Basicaly I need to have a smaller radiator then the OEM unit, and also have to cope with greater temp loading. I have replaced many 'tube and fin' constructed charge coolers...
You could just resin fill the coolant galaries for added cylinder integrity. Less blowby more power. If you realy need a oil/cooler I can get one for you in bar and plate construction, best type for serious work like that. Slightly higher pressure drop, but greater efficiency, only way too keep...
How u doing Shiner,
I have used both, and SolidWorks is better by far. Mind you Inventor is much more user friendly. But I like software with power, SW is very powerfull. It also helps that FEA support is available from various manufacturers. Also coverting file formats is much more accurate in...
