Exactly: I looked at several montages, including yours on the thread "Pantone process: water doping or Pantone engine"! But it was Antoine G who INTRODUCED the system in France with the bubbling of water! Now, what does he say?
If you think this is the best assembly, exactly copy Antoine's bubbler and these multiple reactors.
Without taking anything away from Antoine, it is to him and David that the authorship of water doping returns. But authorship does not mean that the other montages are not improved, we have historical examples everywhere. the first men to have built a plane (flyable) the brothers wright, were quickly exceeded, Garros and Morane the first to have designed a system of pulls through the propeller were quickly exceeded by Anthony Fokker when he copied, improved the system, evolution is filled with a similar example.
In my view the most beautiful assembly is that of the tractor 42
Among the best documented tests it is auto 34 Peugeot thereafter the same travels with two other assemblies all the details consumption of diesel water, wind, dimension ect .. figures which correspond to what several other doping assemblies do.
My editing is far from being a perfection, I looked for a certain simplicity and especially something that works without having to clean too much to adjust with the least possible maintenance working on it. An assembly is often made with the material means and the tools that one has and especially the place that there around the engine, the elbow available in the exhaust pipe. Before you start, spend hours with the hood open.
In your post it is a drawing, a project and the experienced ones of this forum we try to tell you the pitfalls, the mistakes, of our experiences. The forum it is a public place to exchange experiences that helps others who make montages or adjustments ...
If you look at the number of assemblies in circulation very few make a restriction of 2/3 in admission, very little poses only a venturia which penalizes less a coarse restriction in general a simple pipe cut in whistle or a spoon, it relies on the restriction of the air filter to have a vacuum, to realize that the reactor is more functional when the air filter becomes clogged.
I could fill a barrel of junk with all the mistakes I made of all that I started again.
The drawing of David (a character that I respect) that you post above with an exhaust control, I never saw one in photos, built, to know if it is functional after 10km.
after a lived of more than 100km in doping with water you have a good idea of the problems maintains and you understand why the assemblies must be in stainless steel, that the magneisme and the orientation of the north reactor it looks like the dance of the rain , folklore that I will see at the party in the reserve at Pawa Abenakis.
Go see ZAC (Berger) in your corner, he has a good experience on water doping. You will avoid many mistakes before building.
