Exclamation Re: Nozzle spray angle...

Ahh... good questions, and I don't have any good answers

When I began this project I was only intending to target 15psi, but the
only pulley I could get at the time was a small one that was 20psi capable.
I did look at A2W intercoolers, but decided to see what was possible with
WI because it was easier to implement. These are the maps I was given...

Isentropic Efficiency


Volumetric Efficiency


I don't really fully understand how to interpret them. Hopefully, being a
modern twinscrew design, WI will be able to control the heat generation
up to some reasonable pressure. I am not obsessed with reaching 20psi
and will be quite happy if I can run thru the gears at 15psi now and then
The supercharger I am using has an internal pressure ratio of 1.4 and my
engine has a compression ratio of 8.9:1 if that helps ?

Cheers... jondee86
