25 COOLING ADJUSTMENT
• Depending on the ambient temperature and the engine manufacturer requested water
temperature you may need to adjust the cooling capacity of the radiators.
• Cooling efficiency increases by sealing any eventual leakage in the inlet ducts to the
radiators.
• Blanking increases front and rear down-force. To keep the same balance you need to reduce
the rear top wing incidence, or increase the front flap incidence (see below).
The most efficient way of adjusting the cooling is the following:
CONFIGURATION
EQUIVALENT INCREASE IN
REAR HDF WING INCIDENCE
without blanking reference
30% FR and 33% rear top
blanking
+0.5° (in order to re-balance you should
reduce the rear wing incidence by 0.5°)
50% FR and 67% rear top
blanking
+1° (in order to re-balance you should
reduce the rear wing incidence by 1°)
Figure shows the 30 (yellow) and 50% blanking (blue) of the radiator inlet from the bottom upwards
and 33 (yellow) and 67% (blue) of the rear outlet.
