Talk:Carburetor heat

message: The present explanation (as of 19 Oct 2007) is only partially correct, as it ascribes the cooling effect in the carburetor only to the venturi effect, yet it states that fuel-injected engines do not need CH - does nobody see the inconsistency in that reasoning?  Both engines have butterfly valves.  The answer, of course, is the tremendous heat absorbed by the liquid (gasoline) being evaporated at the carburetor.  I have rewritten the article to point this out.Raymondwinn 07:07, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: WHY CARB HEAT

message: The article said that "Temperature drops of 20 °C (36°F) or more are often encountered within the carburetor," and "A warm (35-40 °C) day with high humidity is considered the most likely scenario for carburetor icing."  Perhaps true, but not if the outside air temperature is 35-40, and the drop is 20 degrees C.
A 20 degree drop from 35-40 degrees is still above the freezing point.  The general comment that warm air is more likely to cause carb ice is, of course, correct but ice only forms at 0 degrees C or below.   I deleted the "(35-40 °C)" reference.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.177.85.116 (talk) 18:33, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: When Carb heat

message: The polish training jet airplane: PZL TS-11 'Iskra' ('Iskra' is: 'Spark', from the name of a newspaper participated by V I Lenin), had a system that heated the fuel before reaching the turbine. The cause of carburetor icing being the: 'vaporization heat', the heat fuel absorbs when changing from liquid to vapor, heating fuel is a way to have the needed heat provided before fuel enters the carburation or fuel injection system. With the same aim, SAE paper 885033, by S. Velnovic et al, from the then united Yugoslavia, proposed introducing exhausts into carburetor as a way to increase fuel economy, a hard-style EGR. The air-cooled Citroën car engines had a plate in the admission manifold/ducts, heated by the exhaust gasses, to heat the mix and obtain a better vaporization of mix before entering cylinders. Spanish Utility Model 0248478 U (open and free access in Espacenet), by Manuel Fernandez-Fernandez, is about a fuel economizer made as a serpentine inside a cylinder, washed by the engine's hot cooling liquid, where fuel enters in a crosscurrent path, finding hotter liquid as it goes from the tube in to the tube out, and going out of device at a temperature preventing carburetor icing, and facilitating better fuel/air mix, the possibility of: 'vapor lock' with this kind of approach was not described in the patent office document. Some airplanes, as one of the Arup Flying Wings, or the Heinkel 177, caught fire from fuel lines leaks into hot places. Thanks.--Jgrosay (talk) 13:49, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Alonzo Herndon

message: Alonzo Franklin Herndon 
Birth:   Jun. 26, 1858
Social Circle
Walton County
Georgia, USA 
Death:   Jul. 21, 1927
Atlanta
Fulton County
Georgia, USA 
 
Business man. Born a slave and sharecropper, he rose from poverty to become Atlanta, Georgia's first African-American millionaire, rising as wealthy realtor, insurance magnate, philanthropist and founder and first president of Atlanta Life Insurance Company. Born in 1858 near the town of Social Circle in Walton County, Georgia, the son of a slave and a white farm owner who never officially recognized him as his son, after emancipation he continued working as a sharecropper until he saved enough money to leave Social Circle. Herndon had only one year of formal education, but learned barbering and opened his first barbershop in Jonesboro, Georgia in 1878. He later arrived in Atlanta in 1882, working his way to the top of the city's barbering trade. Eventually, he owned and operated three barbershops in the city. One of them, “The Crystal Palace” which he opened in 1902 at 66 Peachtree Street, was considered the most elegant in the country. Through Atlanta's Wheat Street Baptist Church in 1905, he bought a small burial association for $140. This grew into the Atlanta Life Insurance Company, his most significant business venture. In 1910 he and his first wife built a Beaux Arts Classical home with 15 rooms which still stands today as a historic site. When Alonzo Herndon died in 1927, his company had over a million dollars in assets. Today the Atlanta Life Insurance is the second largest African-American owned insurance company in America, operating in 17 states with about $200 million in assets. (bio by: Curtis Jackson)

message: I made some edits and comments regarding the strength comparisons for the two forces listed in Barnes' study.  Barnes' table on page 28 of his study includes questionable ratios of strength as well as making assumptions that should be explained to the reader but are not.  I am skeptical of the manpower ratios given in Barnes' study as the German figures seem to be for combat arms personnel while the total used for the U.S. division include the entire division's strength.  However, without the actual records of the units involved, it is difficult to be sure of this. W. B. Wilson (talk) 17:33, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
