Nissens 812104 - Radiator

A radiator is a heat exchanger that transfers heat from a hot fluid to a cooler fluid. In the case of an automobile, the hot fluid is the engine coolant, and the cooler fluid is the air that flows through the radiator. The radiator is typically located in the front of the car, and it is surrounded by a grill that helps to direct airflow through the radiator.

The radiator is made up of a series of tubes that are filled with coolant. The coolant flows through the tubes, and as it does, it absorbs heat from the engine. The heat is then transferred to the air that flows through the radiator. The air helps to cool the coolant, and the coolant then returns to the engine to cool it down.

The radiator is an important part of the car's cooling system. If the radiator is not working properly, the engine can overheat. This can cause serious damage to the engine, and it can also be dangerous for the driver and passengers.

Here are some of the signs that your radiator may need to be replaced:

• The engine is overheating.
• The radiator is leaking.
• The radiator is damaged.
• The radiator is clogged.

If you notice any of these signs, it is important to have your radiator checked by a qualified mechanic.
