McCarroll wanted a system to ensure adequate
cooling needs when running in extreme race
conditions. For example, Willow Springs Raceway, a
local track, is located in the high desert area in
Southern California where summer temperatures are
typically over 100 degrees. Seine Systems installed
a prototype MPC misting system to reduce
intercooler air temperatures and a branch system to
provide cool air for the brake ducting system. A
side benefit is that the lower temperature
intercooler air also reduces the air temperature
for engine cooling. Owner/Driver:
Peter McCarroll Vehicle:
1984 930 Turbo, Bodywork:
GT2-style w/quick release carbon fiber body
panels Engine:
3.3 l, single turbocharger w/intercooler running at
1.4 bar (spproximately 21 psi boost) Engine
Management: Zytek Horsepower:
617 HP @ 7000 rpm Torque:
580 ft lbs @ 3800 rpm Vehicle
Weight: Approx. 2400 lbs. Maintained
by: Despite
less than ideal ambient air temperatures (a cool
60ºF), the before and after intercooler
temperature reduction was 15ºF. Higher ambient
temperatures should result in faster rates of
evaporation and increased heat absorption. |
