coolant
n.
means for cooling, cooling agent (usually a liquid)
Coolant
A coolant, or heat transfer fluid, is a fluid which flows through a device in order to prevent its overheating, transferring the heat produced by the device to other devices that utilize or dissipate it. An ideal coolant has high
thermal capacity, low
viscosity, is low-cost, and is chemically inert, neither causing nor promoting
corrosion of the cooling system. Some applications also require the coolant to be an electrical
insulator.
