    The Pratt and Whitney reminds me of a story from former mechanic of Dutch Navy testing these radial engines in same kind of tunnel. One day when testing one on full throttle they saw a baseball cap flying by the dyno control room windows. They shut down throttle and looked to the fence on the left side....there they saw another mechanic hanging horizontal barely able holding on to the fence . He was at the point losing his grip...and being sucked into the propellor...... Good reaction of dyno crew shutting down when seeing cap flying by........

    The sound is very distinctive. When I'm out in the yard and hear a plane, I immediately can tell when it's a radial. Yankee Air Museum is a few miles south of me in Ypsilanti (Mich). They have a B-17 they fly occasionally, and the sound is truly glorious.

    My grandfather worked at Buick during WW2 and brought home a set of the engine manuals and rebuild manuals for the P&W R1830 engines. They are beautiful leather bound books with gold embossed lettering and a gold relief of a B-24 on the cover. Truly quality manufacturing from the days when books were made as well as the engines. Inside they are still stamped "secret" on every page and inside is the "special pass" that let my grandfather take them home after the war. I still have them in brand new mint condition. I tried to donate them to a museum once but they wanted to actually use them to rebuild a B-24a that they museum owned. I thought it would be a waste to mess up those pristine books so I decided not to. Someday Ill find a museum that just wants to display them.

    Now, Someone has a radial engine In a late 30's American pick up, which is cool, but if I correctly recall, has one forward gear.
    That would be a worthy challenge.
    Something like that with 3 or 4 forward gears.

    I understand why an italian V8 sounds different than an american and I understand most of the secrets of other engine sounds. But what is it, that makes a radial engine sound different, but similar to a big crossplane V8? It’s not „round“, but rough and so pleasing to the ears (from a distance😉).
    Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪🤝 near Ramstein Airbase. I hear them nearly every day, but unfortunately they don‘t use radials any more for spreading democracy in our neighbourhood 🙈🤯

    • @robertnorris6364
      @robertnorris6364 10 місяців тому +1

      I am not entirely certain, but I believe it's essentially for the same reason the cross plane V8 has its distinctive rumble - the exhaust pulses are not evenly distributed over time, and the effect is most notable in small radials with 5 or 7 cylinders. Each cylinder takes 720 degrees of rotation to complete a full intake, compression, expansion and exhaust cycle; and if we have an odd number, that means we can't split the power pulses evenly during a single revolution of the engine. A 7 cylinder radial, for example, alternates between 4 and 3 pulses per turn, so we get a "lumpy" exhaust note. The 3-2-3-2 alternation of a 5 cylinder radial is even more juddering, which I suspect is the reason why that configuration was never popular. The "lumpiness" eases as you add more cylinders, but never entirely goes away even in monsters like the R4360.
      Another factor is how spread out the cylinders are in radials vs. inline or V-block engines. That means that the sources of the combustion noise in a radial vary over a distance of up to several feet from an observer, which at close distances can be discerned by ear - which is another source of the "graininess" of the radial engine sound.
