Well we've been kicking around a couple of possibilities but I thought it might be worth getting some more tech input.
The plan: Lower the intake charge temp as drasticly as possible using an easy to implement mixture at the strip. Some considerations: Mixture temperature Heat exchange properties (water, alcohol, antifreeze, etc. all exchange heat at a different rate as well as have different specific heats to change their temp by a single degree I believe) Freezing/boiling point Brainstorm options: Ice water Saltwater icewater bath (lower freezing point) Antifreeze/ice mixture Add water wetter (better heat exchange properties) Dry ice with vented container and antifreeze/alcohol Those are the basics we've been kicking around. What's the consensus on the 'best' recipe for what to fill the resevoir with at the strip? A basic ice water set-up to achieve that 'Wintercooler' effect? Or something more exotic to supercool the intake charge? -------------------- |
