Marine Closed "Freshwater" Cooling Systems

Marine Closed "Freshwater" Cooling systems is a bit of a misnomer as they do not actually circulate freshwater but an antifreeze/water mixture. Unlike in a car where the antifreeze/water circulates through an air-cooled radiator, a closed cooling system uses lake or ocean water flowing through a heat exchanger to remove heat from the engines cooling water/antifreeze mixture.

Marine Heat Exchanger

A Typical Heat Exchanger

The Heat Exchanger

The heat exchanger is the heart of the closed cooling system. It uses raw lake or ocean water brought in from the raw water pump to act as coolant for the engines circulating water. The circulating water runs in a closed loop through the engine only in a half system and in a full system, the exhaust manifold as well. The heat exchanger acts as a radiator does in an automobile, however rather than air the raw water is used for cooling the circulating water. The raw water is brought in an pumped through several small tubes inside the heat exchanger, this tubes will absorb and exchange the heat from the circulating water surrounding them and will exit the heat exchanger towards the exhaust risers to be dumped overboard. The hot circulating water runs thru the heat exchanger on different lines exchanging its heat thru the cooling tubes and exiting the heat exchanger back towards the circulating pump and the block. We carry a number of replacement heat exchanger tanks for a variety of stock applications:

The Expansion Tank

Sometimes attached to the heat exchanger itself, sometimes mounted remotely, this tank is a very important part of a closed cooling system. As the engines water coolant gets hot it will expand, increasing in volume. This water needs somewhere to go and the expansion tank is a tank that provides room for this hot water to expaned into. We carry a couple stock replacement expansion tanks here.

The Half System (Engine Block Only)

The half closed cooling system is designed to circulate cooling water through the block only. As shown in the diagram below, raw water is picked up through the drive pickup or through a hull mounted pickup, if present it will pass through a sea strainer to clean debris out of the water. From there it will pass through the raw water pump. The raw water will be used with your Engine Oil and Power Steering Coolers as they will not be part of the closed circulating system. From Here the raw water will be passed into the heat exchanger tank and be pumped through many small tubes where it will exchange heat from the circulating systems water. The raw water then exits the heat exchanger to go through the manifold, into the riser and then exit the boat. As for the circulating water in closed cooling system, cool water will enter the engine through the circulating pump and circulate through the engine. Hot water will exit at the water outlet on top of the manifold and head to the heat exchanger to exchange the heat it's carrying with the raw water. After the exchange the cool circulating water exits the heat exchanger and returns to circulating pump to begin another loop. See below for a diagram of the half system operation:

The Full System (Engine Block and Exhaust Manifolds)

The full closed cooling system is designed to circulate cooling water through the block and exhaust maniolds. As shown in the diagram below, raw water is picked up through the drive pickup or through a hull mounted pickup, if present it will pass through a sea strainer to clean debris out of the water. From there it will pass through the raw water pump. The raw water will be used with your Engine Oil and Power Steering Coolers as they will not be part of the closed circulating system. From Here the raw water will be passed into the heat exchanger tank and be pumped through many small tubes where it will exchange heat from the circulating systems water. The raw water then exits the heat exchanger to go directly into the risers and then exit the boat. The exhaust manifold and riser will be blocked off, so no water will transfer between them. As for the circulating water in closed cooling system, cool water will enter the engine through the circulating pump and circulate through the engine. The water will heat up in the engine and the warm water will exit at the water outlet on top of the manifold and head to the manifolds. After circulating through the manifolds, the hot water will head to the heat exchanger to exchange the heat it's carrying with the raw water. After the exchange the cool circulating water exits the heat exchanger and returns to circulating pump to begin another loop. See below for a diagram of the full system operation:
