The Chevy cooling fan is an important component in the engine cooling system of your vehicle, helping to produce the flow of air necessary to maintain a safe temperature level for the engine. The cooling system in your vehicle uses a liquid coolant reduce engine temperature, circulating it through the engine to collect heat from the metal surfaces inside. The coolant then flows through the cooling system to the radiator, where it passes through the cooling core to disperse the heat.
A flow of cool air passes through the radiator to help remove the heat from the coolant, provided by the motion of the vehicle as it is driven, or by the Chevy cooling fan as the vehicle is idling or moving at a slow rate of speed. The Chevy cooling fan is mounted behind the radiator of the vehicle, in order to draw air through the radiator as it rotates to aid in engine cooling.
In most vehicles the Chevy cooling fan operates only when the engine temperature rises to a point where its assistance is necessary, remaining at rest when the air generated by the motion of the vehicle is sufficient to maintain a safe engine operating temperature. Depending upon the age and model of the vehicle, the Chevy cooling fan can be powered by an electric fan motor, common in late model vehicles and those with front wheel drive, or a belt and pulley system that is driven by engine power.
