Excerpt
Modern concepts to reduce consumption and emissions of combustion engines, such as intelligent thermal management for example, are based on the appropriate regulation of coolant flow and its temperature. At the Institute for Materials Technology of the Technische Universität Darmstadt, within the scope of the FVV research project No. 1066 Boundary Temperature II, a study was carried out on what the effects of high levels of thermal load and, in particular, local stationary and transient boiling processes in combination with complete coolant evaporation could have on corrosion behaviour. …
