  2. Ram-air intake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ram-air_intake

    Ram-air intake on a Kawasaki ZX-12R. A ram-air intake is any intake design which uses the dynamic air pressure created by vehicle motion, or ram pressure, to increase the static air pressure inside of the intake manifold on an internal combustion engine, thus allowing a greater massflow through the engine and hence increasing engine power.

  3. Ram air - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ram_air

    Often, the purpose of a ram air system is to increase an engine's power. The term "ram air" may also refer to: Parafoils, also called ram air parachutes, non-rigid airfoils inflated by wind; Ram-air intake – an air intake system that aids in engine performance and cooling, commonly used on aircraft and other high-performance vehicles

  4. NACA duct - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NACA_duct

    Three intakes (facing right) on an engine cowling When properly implemented, a NACA duct allows air to flow into an internal duct, often for cooling purposes, with a minimal disturbance to the flow. The design was originally called a submerged inlet, since it consists of a shallow ramp with curved walls recessed into the exposed surface of a ...

  5. Pontiac V8 engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pontiac_V8_engine

    The Ram Air IV used the Ram Air II's camshaft but lift in the Ram Air IV was increased to 0.52 in (13 mm) thanks to the use of 1.65 ratio rocker arms (vs 1.50). The Ram Air IV heads had 1/8" taller intake ports, larger intake port volume with more airflow, yet shared the Ram Air II round exhaust ports.

  6. Shaker scoop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaker_scoop

    A shaker scoop (sometimes called a shaker hood scoop or a shaker hood) is an automobile term for an air intake for combustion air that is mounted directly on top of the engine's air cleaner and protrudes through a hole in the hood. Since it is fastened directly to the engine, it moves with the engine's movement and vibration on its mountings ...

  7. Environmental control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_control_system

    The ram-air inlet is a small scoop, generally located on the wing-to-body fairing. Nearly all jetliners use a modulating door on the ram-air inlet to control the amount of cooling airflow through the primary and secondary ram air heat exchangers. To increase ram-air recovery, nearly all jetliners use modulating vanes on the ram-air exhaust. A ...

  8. Inlet manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inlet_manifold

    Carburetors used as intake runners A cutaway view of the intake of the original Fordson tractor (including the intake manifold, vaporizer, carburetor, and fuel lines). An inlet manifold or intake manifold (in American English) is the part of an internal combustion engine that supplies the fuel/air mixture to the cylinders. [1]

  9. Hood scoop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hood_scoop

    At higher road speeds, a properly designed hood scoop known as ram-air intake can increase the speed and pressure with which air enters the engine's intake, creating a resonance supercharging effect. Such effects are typically only felt at very high speeds, making ram air primarily useful for racing, not street performance.
