Oil Cooler Testing


Oil Cooler Calorimetric Testing

Calorimetric testing for oil and transmission coolers, either water cooled or air blast models can be accommodated on either of the calorimetric wind tunnels, covering flow rates up to 100 litres per minute. Coolers can be tested on a controlled specification transmission fluid or a high performance engine motor oil. Both of which are monitored to maintain accurate and repeatable oil heat capacities. Coolers used in passenger car, truck, bus, motorcycle, performance race, military and marine applications can be accommodated. The versatile wind tunnels and cooling plant are rated up to 100 kW for oil system packages.

Customers include Original Equipment Manufacturers, F1 Teams, Indy car, NASCAR, vehicle manufacturers, Research and Development consultants, CFD Consultants, Universities and MOD.
