2. Internal combustion engine cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_combustion_engine...

   The worst problem met in air-cooled aircraft engines was the so-called "shock cooling", when the airplane entered in a dive after climbing or level flight with throttle open, with the engine under no load while the airplane dives generating less heat, and the flow of air that cools the engine is increased, a catastrophic engine failure may ...

3. Oil cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_cooling

   Oil cooling is the use of engine oil as a coolant, typically to remove surplus heat from an internal combustion engine. The hot engine transfers heat to the oil which then usually passes through a heat-exchanger, typically a type of radiator known as an oil cooler. The cooled oil flows back into the hot object to cool it continuously.

4. Radiator (engine cooling) - Wikipedia

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

   Internal combustion engines are often cooled by circulating a liquid called engine coolant through the engine block and cylinder head where it is heated, then through a radiator where it loses heat to the atmosphere, and then returned to the engine. Engine coolant is usually water-based, but may also be oil.

5. Liquid cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_cooling

   Liquid cooling refers to cooling by means of the convection or circulation of a liquid. Examples of liquid cooling technologies include: Cooling by convection or circulation of coolant, including water cooling; Liquid cooling and ventilation garments, worn by astronauts; Liquid metal cooled reactors; Radiators (engine cooling) Cooling towers

6. Water cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_cooling

   Water is inexpensive, non-toxic, and available over most of the earth's surface.Liquid cooling offers higher thermal conductivity than air cooling. Water has unusually high specific heat capacity among commonly available liquids at room temperature and atmospheric pressure allowing efficient heat transfer over distance with low rates of mass transfer.

7. Meredith effect - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meredith_Effect

   The North American P-51 Mustang makes significant use of the Meredith effect in its belly radiator design. [1]The Meredith effect is a phenomenon whereby the aerodynamic drag produced by a cooling radiator may be offset by careful design of the cooling duct such that useful thrust is produced by the expansion of the hot air in the duct.
