Question

In liquid cooling, the cylinder walls and heads are provided with jackets through which the cooling liquid can circulate.

(a) True

(b) False

The question was posed to me in examination.

Asked question is from Liquid Cooling Systems in section Heat Rejection and Cooling of IC Engine

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

(a) True

In a liquid cooling system, the cylinder walls and cylinder heads are indeed provided with jackets through which the cooling liquid (typically a water-based coolant) circulates. These jackets help to absorb heat from the engine, preventing it from overheating and ensuring it operates within the optimal temperature range.
