Deaeration Pipes & Tanks
21
Avoid Air Entrapment
Route fill line/make-up line upstream of water pump
Avoid air traps in piping/vent lines
22
Deaeration Tanks
Should hold minimum of 11% of total coolant volume
for system drawdown
Thermal expansion volume = at least 6% of total
system volume
Most 2P2L systems utilize a common tank
(exception being some stationary natural gas units)
Mixing of LT and HT coolant streams is acceptable because of
minimal volume being transferred to LT through make-up fill line

Cooling System Capability Ratings
Limiting Ambient Temperature is measured via a combination of test
and simulation of the genset and cooling package.
Reflects actual operating conditions
Air on Core Temperature is measured with only the radiator itself.
Does not reflect operating conditions
Genset blocks a sizeable portion of the airflow
Does not account for the temperature rise across the genset.
Can also be misleading, as a customer may not check where the temperature is
measured and plan for a higher than capable ambient
