[QUOTE="ALBundy, post: 42825, member: 15"] Aiya, last time when go to skool neber study properly, go and play spider, guli and pok-kiu...now dunno how it works :P :P First thing first, higher boiling temperature does not means its good for the engine. If you want to raise the boiling temp, just sprinkle some salt! Here, as the article mentioned, is the rate heat is being discharge from the radiator, in layman's term with water wetter, the same amount of water can store more heat and hence can discharge it at a faster rate. HOW? They accomplish this by reducing the water's surface tension, well can always do a simple experiment. Notice how the water droplets looks like on a well polished bonnet (esp with Meguiars hehehe)..its looks oval but still in a droplet shape. The water's surface tension is the force holding it in its form. Now if you mix some water with water wetter, and sprinkle it on the same bonnet, the droplet should look less "oval" and more flat due to the lesser water surface tension force. I tried the water wetter, noticed my electric fan doesnt switch on that often. Rgds [/QUOTE]
