Is the New Car Radiator Hot?
1 Answers
Under normal circumstances, as long as the car is running, the new car radiator will also heat up. How the Radiator Works: When the car is running, the temperature of the car radiator will rise, and the pressure inside the radiator will increase. When the pressure inside the radiator reaches a certain level, the pressure valve is pushed open by the pressure, and the coolant flows into the adjacent overflow tank. When the car stops running, the cooling system will draw the water from the overflow tank back. Precautions for Radiator Use: Never fill the car radiator with tap water, as prolonged use of tap water can cause rust or scale buildup in the radiator. This is a very common issue. Rust and scale can restrict the flow of antifreeze in the cooling system, reducing the radiator's heat dissipation performance and, in severe cases, even damaging the engine.
