Has anyone
tried mechanically linking the throttle to a variable
wastegate on the
manifold between supercharger and carburetor?
I was thinking that this way
possibly the more-opened-up wastegate could
let the pressure blow off when
the throttle was pulled back, and increase
the blow-off level as the
throttle was opened. Terrence
What has been
done, is use an electric clutch similar to the A/C
compressor
clutch to
disengage the supercharger at low RPM or where boost is not
required.
In my opinion, the only real advantage of a mechanically driven
supercharger is
low RPM response. I can't see the need in an aircraft. Maybe
aerobatics??
