Paul,
        When you tested the wedge duct  (Caravan road test) with the curve in the
duct floor what was the pressure like on either side of the rad?  How was
the distribution across the face of the rad?  Thanks

The static  pressure on the back side was ambient. The front side was about 80% of
dynamic pressure. The air velocity through the rad was about 40% of forward
velocity. The velocity distribution through the rad was more or less
uniform.
