That PW 4360 is kind of like two engines of a B-17, stuck together. A MONSTER. The B-36 Peacemaker had 6 of these, in pusher configuration, plus 4 jet engines. The "Spruce Goose" sported 8. (the 4360 part is the displacement... in cubic inches)

@LJ-gn2unАй бұрын
@@M_Duhamel correct sir. Pratt designed the 1830 with two rows of 7 instead of Wrights single row of 9 that gave a more overall compact lay-out with about the same amount of available horsepower, and in some cases more. Fourteen cylinders instead of 9 also gave you better redundancy in the event you had cylinders fail in flight.

These engines need a prop out front for cooling if you are going to run them for more than a couple of seconds. They will overheat quickly.

As someone that has worked on air-cooled radials quite a bit, especially the multi-rowed, it saddens me to see these magnificent masterpieces of engine technology ran on static display stands without some form of a cooling fan on the output shaft. These engines get VERY hot quickly and can be damaged just as quickly without proper airflow over the cylinders.

@sullivanrachael10 ай бұрын
The thing about big radial engines is good reliability and the lack of a liquid cooling system. Radials are kind of a brute force solution to an engineering problem. As an example, the engine in the P47 was able to deliver massive amounts of power with its turbo supercharger, and survive combat so well it was one of the most survivable combat aircraft of WW2: in some respects one of the best aircraft - because it allowed its pilots to survive and learn from their combat experiences. It was also a very expensive machine to build, but that in part was it size; the jug was big, which allowed it to have a comfortable air-conditioned cockpit in later versions. All in part possible due to its huge engine.
