"This will be the greatest door panel, ever."


Is that a mock up of a 928 interior? I would have to believe that Hans is trying to figure out how to route HVAC hoses.

How the hell do I open this door. I'm trapped!

I'll guess, from the wind tunnel streamers and the duct material under the VOM, that he's testing ventilation electrical prior to observing airflow in the cabin?

. . . Not good with the captions, but it looks like Fritz is testing defrosting ductwork. In a 928 mockup interior.

Either that, or he's aiming a laser at the @sshats that silly stringed his art project.

Five years in the Frankfurt Technische Hochschule, and they put we to work in a wooden Porsche. Mein Gott in Himmel!

The "Simula Car" is a common creation in Bangladesh, where much of the population can not afford an automobile. Mr. Dashwani has over 500 hours in creating his luxury version in which he anticipates renting to other men in the village.

Ok, the ID is that they are testing the 928 interior for noise.

interior airflow

they are testing the range, performance and direction of the airflow of the vents.
this happens early in the production design phase, so location or size of vents can change and the overall interior design can react to the results. next would be testing the acoustics in a prototype, (how much wind noise do you hear while driving) and noise and airflow in different speeds while the side window is open. one of the results you find on your 928 is the little black triangle you can find on the side windows. take them away and the draft is incredible while driving with an open window at certain speeds.

hope this help,
Hans
