Product Description
Automobile thermostat (also known as coolant temperature regulator) is an important part of automobile engine cooling system. It is located in the coolant circulation pipeline in the engine cooling system and used to control the flow and temperature of coolant.
The main functions of automobile thermostat are as follows:
1. Control the engine temperature: The main function of the automobile thermostat is to control the working temperature of the engine. When the engine coolant temperature is low, the thermostat will be closed to prevent the coolant from flowing to the radiator, so that the engine can reach the appropriate working temperature more quickly. When the engine temperature rises to the set value, the thermostat will open, allowing the coolant to flow to the radiator and dissipate heat through the radiator to keep the engine in a suitable working temperature range.
2. Improve combustion efficiency: A suitable engine working temperature is very important for combustion efficiency. When the engine is in a suitable working temperature range, the combustion efficiency is higher and the fuel is burned more fully, thus improving the fuel economy and power output. The function of thermostat is to ensure that the engine works in a suitable temperature range to achieve the best combustion efficiency.
3. Protect the engine: The thermostat also protects the engine. When the engine temperature is too high, the thermostat will open, allowing the coolant to flow to the radiator and dissipate heat through the radiator to prevent the engine from overheating. Excessive engine temperature may lead to engine damage and even serious failure. The existence of thermostat can effectively control the engine temperature and protect the normal operation of the engine.
It should be noted that the working principle of automobile thermostat is based on the expansion principle, and the flow of coolant is controlled by the change of expansion element. Regular inspection and maintenance of the thermostat, including the flexibility and tightness of the expansion element, is an important measure to ensure the normal operation of the engine cooling system and engine safety. Any maintenance and replacement of the thermostat should be carried out by a professional automobile maintenance technician.
