Can anyone post a pic of where you located the NACA vents to run air to overhead console vents? Are you happy with the location and do you have any problem with moisture?

Thanks!

Bob,
  I am on the road now and don’t have a good construction photo on my notebook but here is an exterior photo that shows the most common location for the NACA vent. It works great. Some say that you only need one vent vs. one on each side but as far as I can tell everyone still installs two vents. The cooling of an OH console is one of the nicest mods you can do for comfort.

Deems, could you (or anyone else with the overhead fitted) please indicate if only one vent would be sufficient to provide enough ram air to the overhead console?

Has anyone considered the need to install mesh over the NACA vent holes to keep out the 'critters' or would foam inserts be sufficient when parked, especially when travelling away.

We have plenty of little flying 'critters' her 'down under' and no doubt you have similar problems with 'critters' up over?

I asked the question about a month ago, so you should be able to find all the responses in the archive. The consensus was that one naca would provide more than enough air, but most recommended installing two.

I know of one builder that is installing remote controlled servos to open and close the scat tube opening at the bulkhead to minimize the excessive air flow.

I am planning on putting some fiberglass screen to keep the critters at bay. I’m thinking about installing the screen right at the naca vent to keep the critters from nesting in the scat tube.

If you haven’t purchased your overhead yet, they’ll be a new carbon fiber overhead available soon. Look for details closer to OSH. If you have a pink canopy, I can guarantee that it will fit perfectly unlike some of the offerings from other vendors.

As an early builder, I put 2 home-made scoops (not the NACA vents) on either side of the fuselage, and just underneath the horizontals (to keep rain out, ya know).

I also put mesh screen over the intake to keep critters out (as Patrick asks) and it works! (please don't give me wasps or hornets flying about as I'm trying to comply with instructions from our friends in ATC).
After 2 years of my home-made vents, and seeing what the NACA vents actually do up front, I think that 1 NACA vent aft near the horizontals will do just fine for amount of flow needed to the overhead console/vents.
I also found that in winter (S Mid TN) I actually have to plug my vents up on the outside to keep cold air out of the cockpit......as well as put a butterfly valve on air supply to the tunnel vent entrances.....
My 2 cents won't buy a good Pilsner in Adelaide.....

I have 2 NACA vents located in what looks to be the same place as Robin’s – that is, just aft of the baggage bulkhead and the top is just below the level of the static ports. These provide more than enough air. I’ve thought in retrospect about whether 1 would work but since the ducts are on the sides of the planes you might be getting uneven feed. I’ve never felt any moisture from the OH vents but only have about 3-4 hours of rain flying time so far.

More than happy to shout you a "Coopers" or two, or three, or........ for that feedback Grumpy. Thanks for the response.

Hope to see you down under sometime soon.

Deems, could you (or anyone else with the overhead fitted) please indicate if only one vent would be sufficient to provide enough ram air to the overhead console?



Has anyone considered the need to install mesh over the NACA vent holes to keep out the 'critters' or would foam inserts be sufficient when parked, especially when travelling away.



We have plenty of little flying 'critters' her 'down under' and no doubt you have similar problems with 'critters' up over?

Can anyone post a pic of where you located the NACA vents to run air to overhead console vents? Are you happy with the location and do you have any problem with moisture?

 
Thanks!
