Race Car Aluminum End Tank Air to Air Intercooler

Product name  : race car aluminum end tank intercooler

The End Tank Air to Air Intercooler is an essential upgrade for any high-performance engine. This intercooler is designed to reduce the temperature of the compressed air entering the engine, which increases horsepower and improves overall engine efficiency.

The intercooler features a unique end tank design that maximizes airflow and cooling efficiency. The end tanks are made from high-quality aluminum and are designed to distribute the compressed air across the entire intercooler core evenly. This allows for maximum heat dissipation and ensures that the compressed air is cooled to a lower temperature before entering the engine.

The End Tank Air to Air Intercooler also features an air-to-air cooling system, which further enhances its effectiveness. The intercooler core is designed to allow air to flow freely, which cools the compressed air as it passes through. The cooled air is then delivered to the engine, resulting in improved performance and efficiency.

Brief of intercooler

An intercooler is a heat exchanger used to cool a gas after compression. Often found in turbocharged engines, intercoolers are also used in air compressors, air conditioners, refrigeration and gas turbines.

Internal combustion engines

Cooling fins inside an air-to-air intercooler

Most commonly used with turbocharged engines, an intercooler is used to counteract the heat of compression and heat soak in the pressurised intake air. By reducing the temperature of the intake air, the air becomes denser (allowing more fuel to be injected, resulting in increased power) and less likely to suffer from pre-ignition or knocking. Additional cooling can be provided by externally spraying a fine mist onto the intercooler surface, or even into the intake air itself, to further reduce intake charge temperature through evaporative cooling.

Multiple stages of compression

In automotive engines where multiple stages of forced-induction are used (e.g. a sequential twin-turbo or twin-charged engine), the intercooling usually takes place after the last turbocharger/supercharger. However it is also possible to use separate intercoolers for each stage of the turbocharging/supercharging, such as in the JCB Dieselmax land speed record racing car. Some aircraft engines also use an intercooler for each stage of the forced induction.[citation needed] In engines with two-stage turbocharging, the term intercooler can specifically refer to the cooler between the two turbochargers and the term aftercooler is used for the cooler located between the second-stage turbo and the engine. However, the terms intercooler and charge-air cooler are also often used regardless of the location in the intake system.

Air compressors

Intercoolers are used to remove the waste heat from the first stage of two-stage air compressors. Two-stage air compressors are manufactured because of their inherent efficiency. The cooling action of the intercooler is principally responsible for this higher efficiency, bringing it closer to Carnot efficiency. Removing the heat-of-compression from the discharge of the first stage has the effect of densifying the air charge. This, in turn, allows the second stage to produce more work from its fixed compression ratio. Adding an intercooler to the setup requires additional investments
