Paul,
It looks like you could take advantage of the turbine exhaust thrust by
aiming the pipe rearward.
(the waste pipe also!)

True but at this point we are just trying to get it together so we can
run it.
Jim Mederer flew up for an inspection and insisted we needed an oil cooler.
He told us the warrantee  was void unless we put one in so now we are
doing it to keep him happy. We are using a 11" by 18" by 2" Setrabe
AN -16 fittings in and out. It will be here Thursday. Cost $600.

It is no where near big enough for continuous 650 HP use but both Dan and
I believe five gallons of oil won't get very hot in 91 seconds. That is all
we need to get the record.

Most of the oil coolers I can find today are poorly designed by being
too thick and not large enough in frontal area. This includes the
Setrabe. It is like they did not read the bible of heat exchangers
"Compact Heat Exchangers" by Kays and London or let alone my book
"How to Cool Your Wankel".

  Mistrale got it right back in 2009 but I do not know their
oil cooler supplier, I wish I did.

However, we are prepared to spray a lot of water on it for evaporative
cooling effect if needed.

--------------------------------------------------------------

We bought a Setrab 11 by 18 by 2 inches thick. Not optimum by a long
shot but it is an oil cooler.

Here is what it looks like mounted under the cross counter flow
water cooling system. It will add half a gallon of oil which will
delay oil heating by 15 to 20% :-)
