| Summary: | Automobile radiator is one type of cross flow heat exchanger which is an
important part of vehicle engine. Normally, it is used as a cooling unit of the engine and
the water is heat transfer medium. The heat exchanger configuration is louvered fin and
flat tube. In some cases, the unit is also modified to be a heat recovery device or a heat
exchanger. Automobile radiators are constructed of a pair of header tanks linked by a
honeycomb core. This core usually made of stacked layers of metal sheet, pressed to
form channels and soldered or brazed together. Most of the radiators were made from
brass or cooper cores soldered to brass headers. There are characteristics that need to be
determined in order to verify the radiator performance. Therefore, several tests have
been done to justify factor that increases the radiator performance. In conjunction with
that, a new design radiator with annular shaped is designed and fabricated according to
the criteria in order to satisfy the performance by doing experimental methods. There are
the radiator test on 1.5cc Wira engine and wind tunnel test. |
