I wonder if the flow could be improved by smoothing the inside of the siphon tube, perhaps pumping a mild solvent
through at high velocity for a little bit would streamline the interior surface. As it is each printed layer is apt to contribute some turbulence.
- justtopost 8y agoIn automotive racing where standard porting is verboten, an abrasive slurry of a gritty putty consististancy is pumped through at pressure to smooth the transitions. I think ford even used it for a few performance manifolds. Commonly called extrude honing. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abrasive_flow_machining https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abrasive_flow_machining
