Why does the engine overheat?
1 Answers
The reasons for engine overheating include: 1. Poor heat dissipation caused by rust inside the radiator or water pump leading to poor water flow; 2. Poor heat dissipation caused by external radiator vents being blocked by mud or insect remains; 3. Aging thermostat that fails to fully open when reaching temperature, keeping the system in a small circulation state and causing high water temperature. The car radiator, also known as the heat exchanger, is a key component in the automotive cooling system. Its function is to dissipate heat - the coolant absorbs heat in the water jacket, flows to the radiator to release heat, then returns to the water jacket in a continuous cycle to achieve cooling and temperature regulation. It's also an important component of the automobile engine.
