The cooling system of an automobile engine is most simple when the engine is placed at the front of the vehicle. In this configuration, the engine can be cooled using a simple radiator and fan setup that circulates coolant through the engine block and into the radiator, where it is cooled by passing air from front of vehicle.
When the engine is placed in other than front positions, such as in the middle or rear of the vehicle, more complex cooling systems may be required. For example, in mid-engine or rear-engine configurations, the engine may require additional cooling components such as auxiliary radiators, water pumps, or ducts to channel air flow over the engine.
Additionally, some modern engines use advanced cooling technologies such as electric water pumps, variable valve timing, or active aerodynamics to optimize cooling performance and reduce the overall complexity of the cooling system. Ultimately, the complexity of the cooling system will depend on the specific design of the engine and the placement of engine within the vehicle.
The number of points at which the engine-clutch-gearbox unit is supported on the chassis frame will vary depending on the design of the specific vehicle and more detail given below:
