ABSTRACT:
An engine cooling system includes a primary two-pass radiator, a jacket water pump pumping coolant from the primary radiator to the engine, and a secondary radiator receiving coolant from the primary radiator in parallel with the engine. An after cooler for cooling engine charge air from a turbo charger receives coolant from the secondary radiator, and water is circulated to the after cooler by a SCAC pump. A shunt tank is connected to the suction of the jacket water pump to establish a static pressure head thereon, to ensure that the jacket water pump has sufficient suction pressure despite relatively high coolant head loss through the two-pass primary radiator.
