Radiator

Part of the car’s cooling system, the radiator functions as a heat exchanger, allowing the hot coolant within the system to be cooled by air which is blown in by a fan. The radiator core usually consists of flattened aluminium tubes with aluminium strips that zigzag between the tubes. A plastic tank covers the ends of the radiator core. However, your car radiator can be constructed differently and with different materials depending on the age of your car.
