So recently I have started a project of porting diesel heads and see how well I can improve them and of course diving into fluid flow. Now, I know we are dealing with a different beast being pressurized dry-flow system, and I was told the valve job changes when you are turbocharged or supercharged. I was just wondering if somebody could teach me some fluid flow in N/A and forced induction siutuations. I have been told as well that its 'just get the air in and out like a N/A engine' but I just want to cover all points and view it from the physics side of things.
I had read Charles Fayette Taylor's ICE in Theory and Practice, the short appendix in his Vol 1. Throughout either volume of his (1 or 2) I haven't really seen much of anything specifying specifically to forced induction as far as fluid flow, however I could have missed something though, I am not exactly sure.
Realizing our CSA, layout and shape can effect the flow as well as the valve job (including valve) the convergent and divergent sides are equally if not most important using any style of valve. In this case just your basic poppet valve.
:D
