The Volvo 740 Heater Core maintains the comfort of the cabin interior and the transparency of the windows by converting engine heat into a continuous stream of warm air. This mini radiator is located below the Volvo dash, to which hot coolant is fed via two hoses, and the dense fins increase air temperature as fresh air is forced across the radiator and into the interior by the blower. In the early model line, Volvo had been using heavier brass and copper cores, which provided greater robustness but added bulk, whereas subsequent models had aluminum cores, which were lighter and faster at transferring heat, the primary structural difference between the two styles. Temperature control is either a simple cable-controlled valve over the coolant flow, or a blend door that diverts air around the core, and in certain higher trim 740 models, a combination with small electric actuators and cabin thermistors that allows fine split-zone comfort for the driver and passenger. With the air conditioner on, the chilled and dehumidified air goes past the Heater Core a second time to undergo a slight reheat, so as to avoid mist on cold mornings. The Heater Core is also a small auxiliary radiator, which contributes to the engine getting rid of additional heat under severe loads. Failure to replace coolant may allow rust and scale deposits to block passages or may start electrolysis that punches holes in the metal, issues that can only be addressed by removing the dashboard, and hence regular maintenance is the key to Volvo reliability.
