My invent-ion rolales to automobile radiators known as the slraigzht jhiho radiator. The onlinury straighi lulw radiator has tho defect. that the cooling liquid passes loo rapidly therothrough and lhorei'ore the radiation is not pork-rt. "lho ohjool of the in \oution is to obviate the aliovr drfecli and to produce a simplo and ollirieut radiator.
