Description
The Passive Radiator is a component used to slowly cool down fluids by exchanging heat with the environment or radiating it out into space. It does not require any power.
Usage
Its cooling efficiency depends on:
- The ambient temperature
- The density of the surrounding environment
Heat exchange happens through conduction (improved with higher density) and radiation.
When a fluid flows through it, its temperature tends to equalize with the component's temperature.
