Boiling Point Of Water | |
Remember that temperature and pressure work together. When a diagnosis is made of a cooling system problem, temperature and pressure must be checked. Cooling system pressure will have an effect on the cooling system temperature. For an example, refer to the illustration 1. This will show the effect of pressure on the boiling point (steam) of water. This will also show the effect of height above sea level.
