"jim.isbell" wrote in message oups.com... This has degenerated from a discussion of possibilities into what I would expect in a board meeting, not in an engineering lab. So I am bailing out to look elsewhere. By the way, I didnt reject air cooling, only expressed my concern that it could cause corosion. BTW, thanks for those comments, they WERE valuable. Don't bail out too soon, there will always be more 'you can't do that' types than 'that sounds interesting, let's have a think around the problem' types. Adrian Smith. |

I will continue to look at the problem, not bailing out yet. I dont have a metal hull anymore. My current boat is Fiberglass. The last one was steel but I sold it. However, my research seems to indicate that I need about 1500 cfm and that shouldnt be too hard to get. |

However, my research seems to indicate that I need about 1500 cfm and that shouldnt be too hard to get. How did you arrive at 1500cfm? (Asking cause I just guessed.) I used an oversized fan, linked to a temperature controlled speed controller, with auto shut down should things get too hot. Even at full tilt, 3 KW, the cooling fan never reaches anywhere near full speed. Adrian Smith |
