... to the radiator were taken during experimental tests. The volume of leaked coolant as a function of time was also measured. Additional tests were carried out to evaluate the effects of different lengths of the engine-radiator piping on the after-boiling phenomenon. Finally, in order to make the results applicable...

... this phenomenon, often called after-boiling among engine manufacturers. The model structure includes thermodynamic equations to compute heat transfer as well as mass transfer equations to determine the vaporized mass of the coolant, which occurs in cylinder head passages and the vapor condensation within...
