What Does Your Car’s Cooling System Do?

What Does Your Car'sHello and welcome back to our suite of automotive tools and how to guides for the weekend mechanic new warrior. This is not for the professional, but rather the average Joe who is looking to get their hands a little dirty on the weekends. In the past, we covered a lot of tools, but in today’s article I will cover what is the cooling system of your car is the design. If you’ve been following my articles you should have a basic understanding of how your motor. That takes air and fuel in a mixture of nearly 9,000 pounds of air per pound of fuel volume, and compressed in the combustion chamber. At that time, the spark journey through the ignition coil through the distributor cap where to where jumps the gap between the electrodes of the spark plugs and combustion results.

The combustion of fuel and air mixture inside the engine produces about 4,500 degrees Fahrenheit. It is the job of your cooling system for these temperatures below the boiling point as quickly as possible or engine failure occur very quickly. For this, the water pump pushes the water engine and coolant through the engine block and cylinder heads, hoses and the radiator. The radiator acts as a heat sink to draw heat from the water and the refrigerant before the refrigerant to cool and mix now the water is recirculated through the engine again. When you are parking at a red light, no cold air passes over the radiator, so all cars have a combination of one or two fans to cool the water and the mixture of coolant when the vehicle is not moving.
