For me the limit right now is 2 liters of melted aluminium ( 5,4kg ) So it's important to calculate the amount that's needed.

Maybe you could use aircraft engine cylinders? They're about 2-3 liters each cylinder if we're talking about air-cooled radial engines. So using two of them we can get up to 6 or even 7 liters displacement so you'll need your own crankcase and master connecting rod (you can use other parts from the base radial engine). Just a thought

I think it would be possible to liquid cool the existing air cooled cylinders by machining back the fins and enclosing each section with alloy plate. This would be a simpler way. The cylinder heads would likely be fine left to air cool as they are.

Have you considered making the parts from foam? Doing lost foam casting? Nake the rough parts or perfect parts from foam, dip in plaster allow it to dry, pack in sand, them pour the aluminum in the foam! And it's done!

I´m going to make 8 cylinders. Then I have to make 8 polystyrene models that most likely would not be identical. Now I only have to make one model and all cylinders will be the same. But yes, I have been looking at lost foam as well.

have you considered using tubing, copper or Tygon, externally between the cooling fins on each cylinder and across the heads? I would think eight cylinders would each need their own cooling circuit plumped back to a radiator. Even cooling in the top 2/3 of each cylinder and the head should be the goal
@Desmouffe Жыл бұрын
Not possible. I have a lot of valves and a intake manifold that's in the way. Distance between the fins is very small. Maybe I can get a 6mm tube in there but it´s only 4mm inside the tube. Not enough water can pass.

6:00 It would make sense to have a funnel, even if it were just paper, to help get the sand into the internal mold. That way you could be tamping with one hand and adding with the other hand and making better progress. But... In the end, you got the job done, so it proved not necessary...

@hunnybunnysheavymetalmusic6542 Жыл бұрын
@@Desmouffe Personally, I would use a funnel if I were trying to squeeze a lot of loose sand into a small area like that... I would suspend the funnel roughly 8 inches above the place I was adding sand so I had room to work underneath it with my little tamper, but since I have the option to power feed, instead of holding a shaker up over it with one hand, I would be stepping on my speed controller and auguring the sand into a power sifter. That would ensure my hands were not shaking all over while I tamp, plus it would be less tiring and I could tamp with both hands [especially important if one is using a power tamping tool]. But for the most part, I am going to be using lost wax casting, so the use of sand molds will mostly only be for very large, low precision applications. I am making turbine engine parts, which requires much higher precision than is possible with sand castings. I used to make turbine engine parts for Rolls Royce, so I already know how to make them, but now, with my own machine shop, I will be making my own engines, or my own design right here.

You need to build a shroud around it and force air around the cylinders.bigger fan,shroud ,and you might not need to water cool it.water would help but air cooling on the cylinder fins is what they were designed for.look at the way the lawnmowers were designed and copy the shroud .

I love that you were continuing to develop this into more sophisticated designs. I do wonder, why did you not run a coolant manifold outside of the cylinders? Are you not concerned about the coolant, becoming progressively hotter as it goes to each subsequent cylinder?
@Desmouffe Жыл бұрын
The cylinders gets coolant parallel, but on the way back thru the cylinder heads it gets warmer and warmer. Don't think it will be a problem. If so I can use a more powerful circulation-pump, that will be external and electrical.

@@Desmouffe makes sense. Good plan. Also, if it is cooler going in, and warmer coming out, I wonder if the gradient for each cylinder will average the temperatures.

Well, I'm an amateur. I could have moved the valves to the heads and used pushrods and rockers. Then the intake manifolds didn't have to go thru the cylinders but I kind of like the flathead design. The heads may be done as you suggested. I have not decided yet.
