25 COOLING ADJUSTMENT
•
Depending on the ambient temperature and the ‘engine tuner’ requested water
temperature you might need to adjust the cooling capacity of the radiators.
•
Cooling efficiency increases by sealing any eventual leakage in the inlet ducts to the
radiators.
•
Blanking increases rear down-force. To keep the same balance you might need to reduce
the rear top wing incidence, or increase the front flap incidence.
The most efficient way of adjusting the cooling is the following;
CONFIGURATION
EQUIVALENT INCREASE IN
REAR HDF WING INCIDENCE
Without Blanking
Reference
1 +30%
FRONT
+0.5°
2
+30% FRONT + REAR
+1°
3
+60% FRONT + REAR
+1.5°
Figure shows the 30% and 60% blanking of the radiator inlet regarding configuration 1,2 and 3.
Figure shows blanking of the radiator exit regarding configuration 2 and 3 (blanking off the lateral
part only).
