What is a car radiator? Introduction of car radiator

Cars or other items will basically cause heat in the process of operation, so there is a car radiator. So, is the role of the car's radiator just to dissipate heat?

A brief introduction to car radiators: a brief introduction to classification
The automobile engine radiator consists of three parts: the water inlet chamber, the water outlet chamber and the radiator core. Antifreeze flows inside the radiator core and air passes outside the radiator. Hot antifreeze cools by dissipating heat to the air, and cold air heats up by absorbing the heat given off by the antifreeze. According to the direction of antifreeze flow in the radiator, the radiator can be divided into longitudinal flow and cross flow. According to the structural form of the radiator core, the radiator can include a chip-type radiator core, a tube-band radiator core, and a plate-type radiator core. There are generally two types of automotive radiators: aluminum and copper, the former used in most passenger cars, and the latter used in large commercial vehicles.

Brief introduction of car radiator: principle
Most of the engines use internal combustion engines, which perform work through the heat energy generated by combustion. However, the effective power is only 30% to 40% of the total energy of the fuel, and the remaining energy is consumed as exhaust heat loss and mechanical friction heat loss. In particular, in order to maintain the appropriate temperature of the cylinder, cylinder head, and intake and exhaust valves, it is necessary to cool all parts of the internal combustion engine, which will be used as antifreeze and lose heat energy. The radiator works well with the help of the heat loss of antifreeze, so as to ensure the moderate temperature of the internal combustion engine, and the loss of heat energy from the cooling water is indispensable. Most rely on the water pump driven by the engine to forcibly circulate the cooling water in various parts of the engine. The device that absorbs the heat caused by the engine and dissipates it into the air is the radiator.

In the long-term working state of the car engine, there will inevitably be a little high temperature doubt, and the radiator plays a very important role at this time. Well, today I will briefly introduce it to my friends.
