Your Toyota Corona radiator is just right behind the vehicle's grille. It is basically made of aluminum and is formed by brazing aluminum fins to flattened aluminum tubes. As the heart of the cooling system, its critical function is to transfer heat from the hot coolant that flows through it to the air blown with the aid of the fan. This coolant which is usually a mixture of water and antifreeze flows from the inlet to the outlet through many tubes mounted and arranged in a parallel pattern. The fins conduct heat from the tubes and transfer it to the air that flows through the radiator.
The name radiator must not confuse your understanding as it may suggest radiating heat. It is called as such for it actually dissipates the coolant's heat by convection - not by radiation. This is actually further explained in the process. When the heat in the engine block has been absorbed by the coolant, it enters the radiator through the radiator hose. Then, the coolant trickles down the small tubes that complete the radiator core. The process repeats itself in order to maintain the allowable engine temperature so as to avoid overheating which is a very common automobile breakdown. Overheating can also be caused by idling under hot weather for long period of time, leaking that causes the coolant level to drop, and failure of the water pump and other cooling system components.
