AUTOMOTIVE RADIATOR - DESIGN AND EXPERIMENTAL VALIDATION

摘要

In automotive, radiator is a base component of engine cooling system. It extracts heat from engine and keeps engine surface temperature at optimum level for better engine efficiency. Radiator development consists of its size and design aspects. Size provides heat rejection area and its performance. Design is related to its robustness. This paper focuses radiator design validation through finite element analysis as well size and heat rejection validation by experimental test.
