Yes, it does help. Someone did not explain it properly to me. They said there was a type of refridgeration to the system. The way I understand you... the "coldest" component of the system is only going to be as low as outside air? so in essence, it is just an over complicated air to air intercooler? Or is there some sort of refridgeration principal that happens? Someone explained it to me that it actually got the incoming air COLDER than the outside air using some sort of refridgeration principal. This of course is what sparked my interest about the whole thing. Thanks for taking the time to help me out, any more info is still welcomed- brandon

Im trying to understand how the tip turbine "cool power" concept works, and why they still dont use it today. Sure, we have air to air intercoolers... but cant you use both, making the air too cold isnt a problem is it? Im looking for a technical nitty gritty scientific explanation of how the tip turbine cooling system works, and how one could be duplicated for a smaller deisel truck. Ive been all over the internet and can't find a single diagram of the setup. Im not sure I understand why they did away with it. Thanks for the help
