Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of heat dissipation pipe technology, specifically a process for a heat dissipation pipe for an automotive water tank. Background Technology

[0002] A car radiator, also known as a water tank, is a major component of a car's cooling system. Its function is to dissipate heat. Coolant absorbs heat in the water jacket, flows to the radiator where the heat is dissipated, and then returns to the water jacket for further circulation, thus regulating temperature. It is an integral part of the car engine, and the radiator is a crucial component of water-cooled engines. As an important part of the cooling circuit of a water-cooled engine, it absorbs heat from the cylinder block, preventing the engine from overheating. Because water has a high specific heat capacity, its temperature rise after absorbing heat from the cylinder block is not significant. Therefore, the engine's heat is dissipated through the coolant liquid circuit, using water as a heat carrier for heat conduction, and then through large-area heat sinks for convection, maintaining the engine at a suitable operating temperature. Car radiators require the use of radiator pipes during operation, and the sealing performance of these pipes needs to be tested during manufacturing.

[0003] According to the automotive water tank radiator pipe sealing test device described in patent number CN214096526U, the pipe is difficult to fix during use, cannot be fixed quickly, and is prone to squeezing during connection, resulting in pipe deformation. Summary of the Invention
