jagman Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 What would you be trying to achieve with a heat shield ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagman Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 http://rodyn-inc.com/ISCORMA3_Gunter&Chen_TurbochargerVer2.pdf A good article above on turbos- although plain bearing turbos the same forces applies to bb turbos - The manufacturers and designers go to great lengths to factor these forces when it comes to turbine clearances , so adding a heat shield too close to the turbine housing ,could possibly alter the clearances leading to premature failures As a heatshield to protect underbonnet temps then larger housing to heat shield distance may be required . Its interesting (to me anyway) to read the various harmonics and shaft forces that come into play (no pun intended) rather than the usual what size or a/r or bearing type posts or info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
