Engine Cooling System

Coolant flows through the engine to absorb excess heat.

Engine Cooling System

An ethylene-glycol concentration up to 68 percent offers the best protection against freezing.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

Ethylene-glycol coolant has a high boiling point.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

Pressurizing the coolant system raises the boiling point of the coolant.

Engine Cooling System

Components and flow patterns of a typical cooling system.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

Many engines are equipped with a bleeder valve to permit a technician to bleed any trapped air from the cooling system. The valve is loosened as coolant is poured into the system. Because air is lighter than coolant, the air tends to float toward the highest part of the cooling system.

Engine Cooling System

The water pump is mounted on the front of the engine block and is typically belt driven to ensure constant coolant circulation whenever the engine is running.
Teknologi dan Rekayasa

The water pump impellers spinning blades apply centrifugal force to move the engine coolant through the water pump.

Engine Cooling System

With a cold engine, the thermostat stays closed (A) to retain pressure and heat as the engine warms up. When the engine is warm, the thermostat opens (B), allowing the coolant to travel to the radiator to be cooled.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

The thermostat is a temperature-sensitive component that is activated by an integral wax pellet.

A typical thermostat location.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

A spring-loaded bypass valve opens under coolant pressure, while the main thermostat remains closed.

Engine Cooling System

The coolant tubes and fins of the radiator core.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

A downflow radiator has vertical tubes and tanks at the top and bottom of the core.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

A crossflow radiator has horizontal tubes and a tank on each side of the core.
Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

The pressure valve maintains the system pressure and allows excess pressure to vent. The vacuum valve allows coolant to return to the system from the recovery tank.
Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

Most radiator caps are mounted on the top or side tank of the radiator.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

Some radiator caps are mounted in a remote location to provide an accessible filling point.
Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

The recovery tank coolant level depends on the engine temperature.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

The engine-driven fan draws air into the engine compartment through the radiator core.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

Electric fans can be mounted directly to the radiator, as required with transverse-mounted engines on front-wheel drive vehicles.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

Electric fans can turn on at any time, even when the engine is shut down. Always disconnect the power lead before working around it.
Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

The flexible fan blade changes shape to reduce operating drag and noise as engine speed increases.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

The center of the clutch is a fluid-drive that controls the speed of the fan.
Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

The bimetallic temperature sensor spring controls the amount of silicone that is allowed into the clutch drive.

This action controls the speed.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

Radiator hoses must be large enough to carry full coolant flow, and they must be kept in good condition to withstand the heat and pressure of the cooling system and engine compartment.
Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

Core plugs seal holes that lead to the water jackets.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

The heater core is a heat exchanger that is mounted inside a heater housing on the bulkhead or inside the passenger compartment under the instrument panel.
Teknologi dan Rekayasa

This type of manually-operated heater control valve is connected to the instrument panel heater control by a wire cable.

Teknologi dan Rekayasa

This vacuum-operated heater-control valve uses a vacuum motor to mechanically move the valve open and closed.
The vacuum motor responds to vacuum signals from inside the passenger compartment, based on settings of the heater control panel.
Teknologi dan Rekayasa

Engine Cooling System

This engine is air-cooled.

Airflow over the cooling fins absorbs the excess engine heat.
The hot air is then used to warm the passenger compartment.
