  2. Heater core - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heater_core

    The temperature of the air entering the vehicle's interior can be controlled by using a valve limiting the amount of coolant that goes through the heater core. Another method is blocking off the heater core with a door, directing part (or all) of the incoming air around the heater core completely, so it does not get heated (or re-heated if the ...

  3. Radiator (engine cooling) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiator_(engine_cooling)

    A system of valves or baffles, or both, is usually incorporated to simultaneously operate a small radiator inside the vehicle. This small radiator, and the associated blower fan, is called the heater core, and serves to warm the cabin interior. Like the radiator, the heater core acts by removing heat from the engine.

    A larger bypass is often provided, through the cylinder block and water pump, so as to keep the rising temperature distribution even. [ 5 ] Work on cooling high-performance aircraft engines in the 1930s led to the adoption of pressurised cooling systems , which became common on post-war cars.

  5. Thermostat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostat

    The passenger side tank of the radiator is used as a bypass to the thermostat, flowing through the heater core. This prevents formation of steam pockets before the thermostat opens, and allows the heater to function before the thermostat opens. Another benefit is that there is still some flow through the radiator if the thermostat fails.

  6. Thermostatic radiator valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostatic_radiator_valve

    A thermostatic radiator valve on position 2 (15–17 °C) Installed thermostatic radiator valve with the adjustment wheel removed. A thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is a self-regulating valve fitted to hot water heating system radiator, to control the temperature of a room by changing the flow of hot water to the radiator.

  7. Relief valve - Wikipedia

    A relief valve DN25 on cooling water pipe from heat exchanger Schematic diagram of a conventional spring-loaded pressure relief valve. A relief valve or pressure relief valve (PRV) is a type of safety valve used to control or limit the pressure in a system; excessive pressure might otherwise build up and create a process upset, instrument or equipment failure, explosion, or fire.
