| Hi all, could anyone comment on whether or not my thinking on my exhaust ports is correct or not? If It's wrong please say so, it's how we learn.
Exhaust port in the cylinder is trapezoidal in shape, 42.7 mm wide at the top (70% of bore, chordal measurement), port area is 11.10 sq/cm, my thinking is I should have a similar area at the port outlet i.e. 37.6 mm dia. The exhaust flange diameter would be 39.50mm dia (1.05 of port dia). Am I on the right line or way of course?
Look forward to your replies, thanks. |

| In addition, you have a lot of info about exhaust ports in the "all you wanted to know about the Aprilia 125 RSA by Mr Jan Thiel and Frits Overmars" series of topics (I think we are at 5 parts now) in the 2 stroke section. It's a long way to read but believe me it's worth the effort. |

| It might be useful if you could provide some basic data about your engine, such as bore, stroke, rod length, is it piston port, reed or disc-valve induction how many transfer ports, and gears, 3-4-5-6 and so on? What is the intended use, is this a race engine, sprinter, fast road etc. The more information you can provide will ensure a more accurate and appropriate reply. There is little point in trying to tune an engine with an exhaust port timing of a balls out racer having transfer timings of a sport roadster and inlet timing of a commuter bike! I`m sure you get the picture, all the best with your project.
cheers, Mel |

| he is only asking a question about the exhaust duct, so all those things are irrekevant. |

| look at Wobbly's duct. the only things you need are true exhaust port/blowdown area and the bore diameter. it is relevant for all timings/rev's/gear's/.... it's purpose is to have 0.8mach in the duct for the pipe to work optimal. everything you mention is relevant for the rest of the tune of the engine, but not fr the duct. maybe for a WC-level the duct needs tobe changed slightly (allthough reading Wobbly's comments on the kiwi-biker forum I doubt he changes anything, or he keeps the final 1% of his secrets to himself, which I also doubt)

| i want to copy this wobbly duct idea for a single exhaust port cylinder but my duct is only 29mm long and the recommendation is for it to be 1.5 times the bore size. which in my case is 47mm x 1.5 = 70.5mm and then a spigot to bring it back to 100 percent of cyl wall port area which is 0.5 times bore =23.5mm long. so its 104mm until the flange proper. and start of header.
so with my existing cylinder duct only being 29mm should i have make the first 75mm of my pipes header to follow this convergence then divergence?? (29 plus 75 = 104 which is 2 x bore.)

| yes if you have a watercooled engine, you might as well make a duct through which also cooling water can flow, cooling the first part of your exhaust (where the fresh charge comes). cooling this part is good for power. cooler duct = cooler mixture and cooler mixture = more mixture back into the cylinder. |

| sadly its aircooled. wouldnt a lower temperature affect the speed of the waves or pulses in the pipe making it seem longer?

yes, but than you can shorten it a bit and still gain. |

| i made a "wobbly duct" using the first sections of my header to get the length - 2 x bore. i used 90% of my port area for the narrow diameter. i read i could have used my ports blowdown. according to your (JanBros) spreadsheet that works out at 51% of the port area. isnt this too small a constriction for the duct? so which one is best to try?

| for the Wobbly, I think you best stick to his values, so use the 90% |

thanks Janbros. now to decide whos calcs to use Frits or Blair. or both. ive used both in the past. ie been reading the kiwi biker forum and there are lots of suggestions about percentages of header and to end of diffuser / tuned length as a percentage. 12 years ago i was told some "secret" percentages that all good pipes have and now it looks like its common knowledge. also there is a page in blairs book where amongst all the gobbledygook there are a couple of pages that i understand that also give his percentages. all within a couple of percent of each other. |
