EP Radiators At EP, we want to educate our customers with preventive maintenance techniques and an understanding WHAT DO THEY DO?

RADIATORS A radiator is the part of the engine cooling system that excess combustion heat is lost to atmosphere by means of forced convection using a circulating liquid such as water or water/glycol to affect heat transfer. The primary function of the radiator is to transfer waste heat energy to the cooling air at a rate that will maintain the safe operating engine coolant temperatures. The processes that accomplish this are convection, conduction, and radiation. These processes are dependent upon 3 variables: β€’ The existence of temperature differences between liquid and air β€’ The existence of temperature differences between coolant and air flow β€’ The design of the heat transfer surfaces to maximize their potential RADIATOR CORE The radiator core is the heat exchanger portion of the radiator assembly. It consists of three parts: β€’ Tubes β€’ Fins (flat fin or tubular) or serpentine β€’ Header sheet bonded together mechanically or metallurgically TYPES OF CORE β€’ Downflow β€’ Crossflow β€’ Low Flow β€’ Split Flow β€’ Folded Higher incidence of cooling system trouble in older vehicles Vehicles five years and older are prime candidates for cooling system troubles, troubles that could strike when least expected. NARSA experts report that cooling system service is most frequent on vehicles with more than 100000km. However, NARSA experts note that the km on a vehicle is not as big a factor in the maintenance of a cooling system as is the vehicle’s age.

πŸš—πŸ”΄ Wat do I do if my car overheats while I am on holiday? πŸš—πŸ”΄

The first thing you should do is turn off the engine and let it cool down. Once the engine has cooled, you can check the coolant level and top it off if needed. If the coolant level is low, the overheating may have been caused by a leak or a faulty radiator cap. In this case, it's important to have the problem repaired before driving the car again.

If the coolant level is fine, the overheating may have been caused by a more serious issue, such as a blown head gasket or a faulty water pump. In this case, it's best to have the car towed to a nearby mechanic for repair. It's also a good idea to have the engine checked for any signs of damage, such as warping or cracks, which may have occurred as a result of the overheating.

Overall, it's important to take action quickly if your car overheats while you're on holiday, and to have any problems repaired as soon as possible to avoid further damage.

After a long road trip, the first thing that we’ll do is to rest. Of course, road trips can be really exhausting especially for the driver. But after a long trip, we often forgot to take a look in our trusty vehicle. The car used in the long trip should still be checked the same way it was checked before the trip.
