Book Description / Table of Contents / Buy Now Button
The book is a comprehensive, easy to use technical summary, a “knowledge dump” from a 30 year OEM engineering expert. It discusses functional requirements, components and their interaction; the heat rejection to the engine mass from the combustion of the fuel/air mixture and to the coolant for different engine speed and load conditions and ambient temperatures; the need for a cooling system to stabilize temperatures within specific ranges; heat balance; the heat rejection to the atmosphere required to maintain operating temperatures, the system braches and circuits; engine water jackets; water pump; radiator; radiator corrosion; system pressurization and depressurization, thermostat; pressure caps and recovery systems; deaeration; pressure-temperature profiles; cavitation; erosion; etc.
TTS books are designed and formatted specifically for technically oriented persons, to impart understanding. It is used for OEM engineering seminars, the training of engine cooling service technicians and for personal reference and self-improvement.
A CD is included, with 3 Engineering Fundamentals Handbooks covering Fluid Flow, Heat Transfer and Thermodynamics. (click here for contents of Thermodynamics CD) |

Engine Coolants © ISBN 0-9720927-0-6 Publication No. TTS No. 103 List price $29.95 US Author: C. A. Mesa Soft cover, perfect bound, printed in color. 132 pages, with 96 graphs, illustrations and photographs
Book Description / Table of Contents / Buy Now Button
The book provides practical, comprehensive knowledge of the thermal and physical properties of water and ethylene glycol/water solutions; freeze point vs. concentration; the electro-chemical corrosion and erosion/impingement mechanisms that affect the metals in the cooling system; corrosion inhibitors and their characteristics and the factors that influence the rate of corrosion, such as cavitation and erosion, coolant pH and stray electrical currents. It also covers water quality requirements; deposits that plug radiator/heater core tubes and the pressure/vacuum valves in radiator caps, hoses, etc.
It is intended for those engaged with engine cooling work, it is NOT a chemistry book. If you work on cooling systems and still think engine coolant is “just antifreeze” and any tap water is OK, this book is definitely for you. |
