Cooling System - Check
This engine has a pressure type cooling system. A pressure type cooling system has two advantages. The cooling system can be operated in a safe manner at a temperature higher than the normal boiling point (steam) of water.
This type of system prevents cavitation in the water pump. Cavitation is a reaction that creates low pressure bubbles that are made in liquids by mechanical forces. With this type of cooling system, creating an air pocket or a steam pocket is more difficult.
