    Test Cell Exhaust system for large v engine

    The standardized test cart does work okay. But from a production point of view I'm trying to eliminate work that doesn't add any value. It seems more logical to fit the exhaust once in the test cell directly to the engine if the problems can be overcome. Ideally I would like some kind of space...

    Test Cell Exhaust system for large v engine

    The usual test cycle time is about 2 hours so minimising rigging/de -rigging time is very important. I like Mike's idea of using flexible hose to the test cell wall or I could hang it down from the roof if sufficient movememnt can be achieved to cover all the outlet locations. It would then...

    Test Cell Exhaust system for large v engine

    The engines are all diesels Unfortunately I need to measure exhaust back pressure/smoke/temperature in each bank of the engine. To simulate back pressure from mufflers, a flap has to be set in a Y piece where the gases from both banks meet. So I don't think i can use a hood and extractor. Cell...

    Test Cell Exhaust system for large v engine

    Hi all, I'm designing an exhaust system for an industrial engine (50 litre) test cell and need a design that covers engines of various sizes and exhaust outlet configurations. To achieve this I need X2 articulating exhaust systems for each cell ( one for each bank of V 12-16's engines ) -...

    Exhaust design - 80 litre diesel using modular components

    Thanks for your suggestions There is a 'trouser' collector section at the top with stainless steel bellows that collects the exhaust from the left and right exhaust banks so expansion is already taken care of. I'm designing the legs that go from the left/right bank turbo to the trouser. I...

    Exhaust design - 80 litre diesel using modular components

    Hi all, I thought somebody might be able to give me some advice. I'm designing an exhaust for an 80 litre 16 cylinder 2000hp diesel engine using modular tubes and bends to replace a fully fabricated exhaust. This was very expensive to make. I have something suitable on the drawing board using...
