Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used for mild to moderate pain. The most commonly used members of this group are over the counter drugs: aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxen. Taken regularly, NSAIDs can lead to stomach upset and prolonged bleeding.
This is where the âpressureâ of our cooling system comes into play. When you increase the pressure on a liquid, you raise its boiling point. Our coolantâs boiling temperature of 223Â° F (106Â° C) is when it is under 1 psi, which is why most cooling systems are designed to operate at 15 or 18 psi.
If I changed from my 7 LBS radiator cap to a 16 LBS could that drop my temperature?? Thanks. No. The greater pressure potential would mean that it would take more heat to cause the coolant to boil. But if the 7 psi cap isn't reaching its relief pressure, there'd be no temperature difference in using a higher psi cap. If the pressure you're seeing is causing the cap to relieve the pressure (hopefully into an overflow catch tank), a higher psi cap would help. #4 (permalink) 07-19-2010, 05:17 PM.
