I would appreciate to know your opinion on the location for the cooling inlet in a high wing plane.
I thought it could make sense to place the radiator inlet, aft of the wing spar with a variable extendible lip behind the pilot head.
The outlet would be to mount the radiator flat at the upper trailing edge of the wing over the fuselage section.
I thought I should have high pressure at the turbulent fuselage-wing intersection and low pressure at the upper trailing edge.
The stream of the cooling flow would need to turn a couple of corners.
As always I am sure I have ignored material factors that should affect such an instalation.
