Catcon temps/Heywood ref...

[Timothy Coste]

Hi all,

   I'm way behind in keeping up with the list, but I just happened
to notice this line of posts...  No doubt, Heywoods book is an
excellent book.  Everything from simple charts showing the relationships
pretty straightforwardly (like Ed's example) thru some seriously
complex analyses of different engine processes.  My copy is at
work (and I'm not) so until then I couldn't give you the ISBN, but
if no one comes up with before tomorrow morning, I'll post it.  We
use it here (Mich. Tech. Univ.) in several senior level engines
classes.  I still go back to it all the time.  I believe Heywood
consults regularly with Ford (so I've heard) and I know his name
makes it on a LOT of SAE papers.  Sorry for the not so helpful
bandwidth usage, but if possible, you should get Heywoods book. :)

   Standard disclaimers...never even actually met the guy.
