Outbehindthebarn Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Can anyone name another application for a tip-turbine after-cooler set up other than Mack? The turbine appeared to be the exact same design too.I saw it today, and was very surprised. (some on here may have known of them for a long time. . .)

41chevy Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 International comes to mind for some odd reason. Interesting question.

Outbehindthebarn Posted January 6, 2016 Author Share Posted January 6, 2016 Here's a hint....This application would have been in service late '80s early '90s... possibly earlier too....

41chevy Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Aroud the time of Caterpillar/Perkins deal Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdog Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Mack was part of the Signal Companies at the time the ENDT 676 came out,Garrett was too,I'm sure that was who built the tip turbine set up,but I have no clue who else they farmed it out to.

Outbehindthebarn Posted January 6, 2016 Author Share Posted January 6, 2016 Aroud the time of Caterpillar/Perkins deal Best I can tell, it was before that....I need to say, the 'cooler box' is a different shape, but the idea behind the setup is identical and as I mentioned before, the turbine(fan?) is indeed the same...

41chevy Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 We had a pair of R model at Horans with them, biggest thing I saw was keeping the exchange fins clean of dust and schmegma from running in Broman's sand pit. Turbos seem fine. No idea for an OTR unit Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
