The Effect of Modified Baffles and Auxiliary-Cooling Ducts on the Cooling of a Double-Row Radial Engine
Description:
Report discussing testing to determine the cooling effect of modified baffles and auxiliary-cooling ducts on the rear-row cylinders of a double-row radial engine. The modified baffles were found to reduce the temperatures of the exhaust-valve seats, but did not have an effect on the valve-guide temperatures. The auxiliary-cooling ducts reduced temperatures of the exhaust-valve seats and rear spark plug gaskets.
