Engineering Design Handbook. Military Vehicle Power Plant Cooling

Abstract

The Engineering Design Handbook Series of the US Army Materiel Command is a coordinated series of handbooks containing basic information and fundamental data useful in the design and development of Army materiel and systems. The handbooks are authoritative reference books of practical information and quantitative facts presented to be helpful in the design and development of materiel that will meet the technical needs of the Armed Forces. The Military Vehicle Power Plant Cooling Handbook is intended to serve as a basic reference for the vehicle cooling system designer. The material presented was compiled from reports, publications, interviews, and data provided by various agencies. This handbook will be of particular value to the users and program managers in their role in the development of new vehicles. It will serve as a guide to (a) the generation of realistic vehicle specifications, (b) total system integration in cooling system design, and (c) a complete cooling system development and corrective action program in the vehicle development cycle.
