I had forgotten about this thread so sorry for yet bumping it.
For me vex clarified quite a few questions I had and actually I focused on what exactly it was I was getting side tracked by - the speed of flowing liquids/gases, etc...I believe for me I lost track of the purpose of flowbench testing: which (correct me if I'm wrong) is discovering points of restriction, poor port activity and where they can and need to be improved for a desired performance target. Water, which is easier to contain, control as well as observe than air/gas will display the necessary characteristics of flow.
I realized I'm not looking to alter what it is that'll be flowing through the engine because all I'm looking for is flow PATH. Water will show me that path because it will take same route(s) as air.
It's an "ah ha!" moment for me. Thanks vex.
Oh, and you're right, I did mean eon/aeon. I just now saw that I goofed that up.
