Question

The main disadvantage of forced cooling is that cooling is ensured under all conditions of operation.

(a) True

(b) False

The question was asked in an interview for job.

I need to ask this question from Liquid Cooling Systems topic in division Heat Rejection and Cooling of IC Engine

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

(b) False

The statement is incorrect because the main advantage of forced cooling is that it ensures consistent and efficient cooling under all conditions of operation, as it uses a pump to circulate the coolant. This eliminates the reliance on natural convection, which can be less effective in high-performance engines or varying operating conditions. Therefore, forced cooling actually provides more reliable cooling, not a disadvantage.
