It takes time for the heat in the combustion chamber from the previous combustion cycle to make it to the cooling system. We should take this over to In Cylinder Effects, sorry.

Are we talking pre-compressor temps or post-compressor?

Pre-comp doesn't make much difference, it will all turn to steam anyway

Post-compressor temp does matter a lot, but in any case it is unlikely to be able to generate steam. Just some heat exchange between the water droplets and the air.

In-cylinder is another story, it will all turn to steam because of the pressure/temp conditions.

What I was saying is that if the water has already turned to steam pre-comp, it has nothing left to do afterwards. :wink:
