Typical closed loop cooling
system with the water jackets connected in parallel.
Coolant enters at the bottom of the jackets to guard
against air entrapment. WPT recommends low pressure
and high temperature warning devices in the cooling
system.
The water jackets may also be connected in series
as shown in the series diagram. A center water jacket
will generate roughly twice as much heat as the front
or back water jacket. Coolant volume should be provided
accordingly.
There are many ways to provide coolant to the unit
but it is most important to maintain adequate flow.
If the unit is used as a clutch, consult WPT for additional
requirements.
