Reasons for Abnormal Noise in the Coolant Reservoir?
1 Answers
The vehicle's cooling system has malfunctioned. Below is an introduction to the vehicle's cooling system: 1. Introduction: The main function of the cooling system is to dissipate heat into the air to prevent engine overheating, but the cooling system also has other important roles. The engine in a car operates best at an appropriately high temperature. If the engine becomes too cold, it accelerates component wear, reducing engine efficiency and increasing pollutant emissions. Therefore, another key role of the cooling system is to quickly warm up the engine and maintain it at a constant temperature. 2. Common Issues: Engine Overheating: Air Bubbles: Air in the coolant can create many bubbles when agitated by the water pump, which can hinder heat dissipation from the water jacket walls. Scale: Calcium and magnesium ions in water can gradually form scale at certain high temperatures, significantly reducing heat dissipation capacity and partially blocking water passages and pipes, preventing normal coolant flow. Hazards: Engine components expand due to heat, disrupting normal clearance fits, affecting cylinder air intake, reducing power, and diminishing the lubricating effect of engine oil. Corrosion and Leakage: Ethylene glycol has strong corrosive properties on the radiator. As the corrosion inhibitors in the coolant degrade, they can corrode components such as the radiator, water jacket, water pump, and pipes.
