designing and analysis of the cooling system of FSAE Car along with the integration of Side-pods to increase residence time, heat transfer across the radiator and enhance engine cooling by natural convection. The stock radiator parameters were experimentally determined, theoretically confirmed and validated using CFD analysis. Features like fin density, heat transfer coefficient, flow rates, side-pod geometry, presence of gills, chimneys were analysed to design an optimised cooling system resulting in increased efficiency by over 150%.
