The Engine Cooling System

Additionally, if the engine cooling system fails to effectively remove heat from the combustion chamber, knock may result. Also, at high speeds, knock can also occur, but may go unnoticed due to mechanical noise from the engine. 

Potential problems with the engine cooling system can be avoided if the following considerations are incorporated into the design and installation of the cooling system. 

Sodium benzoate is also finding increasing appHcation as a corrosion inhibitor. It is incorporated into paper wrapping materials for the prevention of mst or corrosion in the production of such diverse items as razor blades, engine parts, bearings, etc. It is also used in the automotive industry as a corrosion inhibitor in engine cooling systems (at 1.5%), mainly in Europe and Japan. Unlike in its appHcation as a preservative where free benzoic acid is required to provide antimicrobial action, it appears to be the benzoate ion that provides the corrosion protection.

Nuclear power plant systems may be classified as "Frontline" and "Support. . iccurding to their. service in an accident. Frontline systems are the engineered safety systems that deal directly with an accident. Support systems support the frontline systems. Accident initiators are broadly grouped as loss of cooling accidents (LOCAs) or transients. In a LOCA, water cooling the reactor is lost by failure of the cooling envelope. These are typically classified as small-small (SSLOCA), smalt (SLOCA), medium (MLOCA) and large (LLOCA). 

Laboratory tests used in the development of inhibitors can be of various types and are often associated with a particular laboratory. Thus, in one case simple test specimens, either alone or as bimetallic couples, are immersed in inhibited solutions in a relatively simple apparatus, as illustrated in Fig. 19.34. Sometimes the test may involve heat transfer, and a simple test arrangement is shown in Fig. 19.35. Tests of these types have been described in the literatureHowever, national standards also exist for this type of test approach. BSl and ASTM documents describe laboratory test procedures and in some cases provide recommended pass or fail criteria (BS 5117 Part 2 Section 2.2 1985 BS 6580 1985 ASTM 01384 1987). Laboratory testing may involve a recirculating rig test in which the intention is to assess the performance of an inhibited coolant in the simulated flow conditions of an engine cooling system. Although test procedures have been developed (BS 5177 Part 2 Section 2.3 1985 ASTM 02570 1985), problems of reproducibility and repeatability exist, and it is difficult to quote numerical pass or fail criteria. 

Ethylene glycol is traditionally associated with use as permanent-type antifreeze for internal-combustion engine cooling systems. Other uses include the production of polyesters for fibers, films, and coatings, in hydraulic fluids, in the manufacture of low freezing-point explosives, glycol ethers, and deicing solutions. 

In order to reduce radionuclide transportation from the primary to the secondary cooling system, containment isolation valves should be installed. These valves will be automatically closed by the signal detecting the heat transfer tube rupture of IHX. Meanwhile, the current engineered safety features actuating system is not designed to detect the rupture since the scenario did not impact on the reactor safety of the original HTTR. Therefore, a detection method of heat transfer tube rupture of IHX should be established. 

The easily penetrable roughness made up of mobile elements is a heuristic model of the spraying cooling system (SCS). Therefore, it is important to consider the heat and mass exchange of such an EPR with the flowing medium (air in the case of SCS). Droplets are cooled by the wind, and this ultimate aim is practically important for power plant engineers. 

From an engineering point of view, the spraying cooling system (SCS) is determined by two groups of factors. Environmental factors determined by meteorological measurements include...
