Talk:Intercooler

message: * I have prepared an article on aftercoolers (Based around their usage in Compressed Air Systems).  The search term "aftercooler" has a redirect on it which brings the user to this page.  Do you suppose you could remove this redirect?  The new article will include a "See Also: Intercooler" BSE9619 (talk) 20:39, 5 March 2018 (UTC)

message: I believe the Supra has a Side Mount Intercooler. FMIC are only aftermarket for them.

That is correct,all generations of the supra had side mount intercoolers stock.
It's also the same for the Nissan Skyline.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.59.183.142 (talk) 12:17, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Multiple merge 

message: After the merge the page needs lots of cleanup.  I added some pictures that I think apply and fixed some glaring technical errors.  Mainly, intercoolers do not compress the air charge, but they do increase its density.  I replaced the use of "compression" in the article to describe the effect with "densification" though I don't like the word anyway.  It really needs to be reworded from scratch to just explain intercoolers increase density via temperature without compressing it at all.  Also simplified some of the explanations.  Still lots of wordiness, repetition, and just ugly flow throughout the article.  I'll try to pull some books off the shelf when I get the chance to add some references and make a second pass at it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Freonr2 (talk • contribs) 02:57, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

message: The PSA link in the phrase PSA Peugot-Citroen needs to be linked to an article, not a disambiguation page. Someone who knows what this is referring to needs to change it -- I don't even know, or I'd do it myself. 69.65.232.61 07:46, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Intercoolers are found on more then just automotive engines, Maybe some write-up about intercoolers on Aircraft, Locomotive, Truck and Marine engines is needed? --Chesapeake (talk) 20:36, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Way too Automotive Based? 

message: I just read on the website for Vestas (www.vestas.com) about their role in developing the intercooler and I was hoping to find some details about the origination and invention of the modern intercooler here. Does anybody have any good sources for such information? ---Puff (talk) 17:11, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: They were certainly around long before Vestas got involved - pre-WW2 for certain.  The first automotive application appears to have been that fitted to Frank Lockhart's Miller 91 in 1927, but I'm pretty sure they were already in use on aircraft engines prior to that, as Lockhart consulted with Dr. Sanford Moss of General Electric when developing his car.Mr Larrington (talk) 11:26, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  May I defend Vestas? The article specifically refers to large turbo charged marine diesel engines. For auto motive applications, refer to the "intercooler" page. Vestas we asked to develop a product by Burmeinster & Wein. At more or less the same time, GEA in Germany were doing the same thing for Sulzer Brothers engines. Prior to that, these large engines were not turbo charged, so there was no charge air cooler. astat101 (talk) 13:30, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
