Hi Paul and All

Does any one have info on the use of coolants such as 'Evans' instead of
water.

Ian Beadle here in Perth is using it with good results.

People have used it but the heat transfer rate from metal to the coolant
is reduced in theory. Ken Welter also tried it.

The jury is still out until we get some metal temperature data
near the combustion chamber. It may be OK for modest HP levels but might
become a problem at higher HP levels. Mark Steitle has instrumented
his 3 rotor with thermocouples near the combustion chamber surface
so he would be a good person to try it.
