Cooling system
The cooling system cools high-temperature parts such as the
cylinder head, cylinders, and pistons to the appropriate
temperature so that the engine can continue to be operated
normally.
The optimal temperature around the engine cylinders is
approximately 80°C. If cooled excessively, fuel will not
vaporize sufficiently, causing fuel combustion to be poor.
Although cooling systems are normally air-cooled or
water-cooled, other types also exist such as liquid-cooled types
that use oil, as well as steam-cooled types that remove heat
through the evaporation of steam.
