Abstract

A numerical simulation has been carried out for the engine cooling system. It is the important element to analysis of heat transfer process in cooling system for an automotive engine. Thus, the purpose of this simulator is to present useful information at the early stages of the design of the cooling system by enabling the development engineer to predict performance trends. This program has useful window interface for analysis of the cooling system and it is convenient for user to control data with relational database. The system was simulated and compared with experimental data. As a result, the inlet, outlet temperature of the radiator by the simulator agrees well with it. It is concluded that this simulation program is available in developing the cooling system for a new car.
