Oil Coolers

A constant engine temperature is vital in dynamometer testing, especially during endurance tests. Figure

3.15 shows a multi-pass heat exchanger with the water inlet controlled by a mechanical thermostat valve. It

can be mounted on the absorber stand, the engine cart, or in an alternative convenient location.
