What is a Transmission Cooler?
1 Answers
Transmission cooler is a cooling tube. Transmission oil cooler: The transmission oil cooler is usually a cooling tube placed in the water outlet chamber of the radiator, where the transmission oil flowing through the cooling tube is cooled by the coolant. The transmission and the cooler are connected by metal pipes or rubber hoses. Principle: In high-performance, high-power reinforced engines, due to the large thermal load, an oil cooler must be installed. The oil cooler is arranged in the lubrication circuit, and its working principle is the same as that of the radiator. Engine oil coolers are divided into two types: air-cooled and water-cooled. Cars equipped with automatic transmissions must have a transmission oil cooler because the oil in the automatic transmission may overheat. Overheated oil can reduce transmission performance or even cause transmission damage.
