Diy Flow Bench

This micro flow bench is the most basic easiest to build flow bench using the flow performance kit fp2 0bs.

Diy flow bench.

The diy flow bench projects aim is to build a basic affordable diy flow bench using readily available components. Benches are appropriate both indoors and outdoors and can be used for storage for decoration or just to sit on and reflect. Currently the project is focused on making a basic flow bench using an automotive maf sensor and arduino controller. One of our favorites is a diy bench which is always a great way to provide a practical and decorative accent both inside and out.

Establishing the numbers step 1. With high tech electronic sensors and a patented state of the art air flow metering element effective flow rate measurements can now be made with nothing more than an average shop vac for an air source. Diy flowbench design diy flowbench design and construction what s a flowbench. It is and has been for decades an invaluable tool to any one interested in increasing the performance of combustion engines.

The flow bench is used as a tool for measuring and quantifying modifications and improvements made to items such as automotive cylinder heads and carburettors by detecting air flow improvements. The diy flow bench is a basic system to measure and display volumetric air flow. Building a motor controller severely increases the complexity of the project but gives more possibilities for convenient automated testing and more importantly consistency. While using a shop vacuum to move air through the flow bench the fp1 processor estimates the flow data to 28 wc test pressure in real time as the flow test is being performed.

Open the 5 cfm orifice. Start with a reading on the manometer with the plate completely blocked off for a zero flow depression test. Make sure your bench is sealed so no leakage takes place except through the test piece. This flow bench uses a shop vacuum for estimated flow data.
