🔍 Key Concepts

• Purpose of an expansion tank in a closed freshwater cooling system • How thermal expansion of water affects pressure and air/steam pockets • Where chemicals and makeup water are typically added in an engine cooling system

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens to cooling water volume and pressure as the engine heats up—how does an expansion tank help manage that? • In a closed cooling system, where is the safest place (pressure-wise) to add chemicals and makeup water? • Could an expansion tank reasonably perform just one of the listed functions, or does its design naturally lead to more than one of them?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify whether an expansion tank is usually located at the highest point in the system and why that matters. • Check if the tank is intended to help prevent air or steam pocket formation in the cooling passages. • Confirm that the expansion tank typically serves as a low-pressure fill point for adding makeup water and treatment chemicals.
