The most popular radiators for passenger cars today are plastic/aluminium radiators, which have an aluminium core (fin and tube) and a plastic tank.
This is often the factory default configuration and is probably present in the majority of aftermarket radiators as well. The outlet and inlet tanks, the core, and the pressure cap are the radiator’s three primary components.
These 3 components each have a distinct function within the radiator. A radiator hose’s primary function is to link the engine to the radiator and enable coolant to flow through the corresponding tank.
A Nyalic surface’s smooth finish aids in maximising airflow and minimising clogging. A Nyalic-coated radiator maintains its heat transfer properties. Aluminium and copper industrial radiators of all types are coated with Nyalic’s coating to prevent corrosion.
The global Automotive Radiator PPS resin market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
At BUT, a new generation of radiators is being created. The initial prototype has already undergone vehicle testing. Every year, only in Europe, tens of millions of automotive radiators are made.
An entirely new form of radiator composed of hollow polymer fibres has been developed by scientists from the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at BUT. Radiators are typically made of metal.
The first-generation prototype has already undergone testing in a car, but the new form of exchanger may also be used in air conditioners, to cool batteries, or in other locations where metal radiators are unsuitable because of corrosion, for example. It initially appears to be a typical radiator.
In actuality, BUT has been working in the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering on an entirely new generation of heat exchangers. To hold the polymer where it belongs and allow air to circulate around it, the exchanger creates a network of hollow polymer fibres woven together with textile fibre.
“The outside diameter of the fibres is roughly one millimetre. The golden mean must be found since although smaller fibres transport heat more effectively, they have other limitations and can only be produced in diameters up to 0.4 millimetres.
