What Are the Functions of Coolant?
1 Answers
Coolant functions: 1. Circulates in the engine cooling system to carry away excess heat generated during engine operation, ensuring the engine operates at the proper working temperature. 2. Has a higher boiling point and lower freezing point than water, providing antifreeze protection. 3. Prevents corrosion, as coolants contain a certain amount of anti-corrosion additives to protect the cooling system from corrosion. 4. Prevents the formation of deposits such as scale. Notes on using antifreeze: 1. Mixing antifreeze with water can damage the engine. 2. Avoid mixing different types of antifreeze together. 3. Remember to check the antifreeze regularly.
