What are the reasons for the rapid rise in water temperature?
1 Answers
Water temperature rises quickly due to: 1. Lack of water in the radiator; 2. Faulty thermostat; 3. Water pipe leakage; 4. Poor radiator cooling; 5. Water pump failure. The water temperature gauge visually displays the temperature of the water in the engine's radiator, ensuring the engine operates within an appropriate temperature range. Both excessively high and low water temperatures can affect engine performance. Typically, the normal operating water temperature for a car is around 90 degrees. The car radiator, also known as a heat exchanger, is a key component in the car's cooling system. Its function is to dissipate heat. The coolant absorbs heat in the water jacket, flows to the radiator to dissipate the heat, and then returns to the water jacket for circulation, achieving temperature regulation.
