Theoretical Substantiation of the Advisability of Using Adhesives When Sealing the Core of Car Radiators and Diagnosing Radiators with a Thermal Load

Abstract

In this work, a method for diagnosing radiators has been developed, which consists in exposing the radiator to a heat load and measuring heat transfer when the balance of the heat exchange process is achieved. A complex means of technological and information support for diagnosing radiators have been created, including means for modeling heat load, registering, processing, and storing the obtained values of parameters of the technical condition of radiators. A mathematical model of heat transfer from a radiator is obtained, reflecting the features of its functioning in conditions of operational pollution.
