Systems and Methods for Controlling Coolant and Fuel Enrichment
An engine control system for an engine includes: a pump control module configured to control a coolant pump; a block control module configured to control opening of a block valve; a fuel control module configured to control fueling of the engine; a coolant control module configured to control a position of a coolant valve; and an adjustment module configured to, when the coolant pump is pumping, the block valve is open, and the coolant valve is positioned such that an input is connected to an output, adjust the fueling of the engine such that fueling of the engine is fuel rich.
Marine engines and cooling systems for cooling lubricant in a crankcase of a marine engine
A marine engine has a powerhead, a crankcase and a crankshaft disposed in the crankcase. A cooling system has a cooling passage that conveys cooling water for cooling the crankcase, a pump that pumps the cooling water from a body of water in which the marine engine is operated through the cooling passage, and a valve that controls discharge of the cooling water from the cooling passage.
ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM AND COOLING METHOD THEREFOR
The present invention belongs to the technical field of diesel engines, and particularly relates to an engine cooling system and a cooling method therefor. In the engine cooling system of the present invention, when an engine needs to be warmed up, a first valve is opened, a lower engine body water storage chamber is in communication with an upper engine body water storage chamber, and some of the cooling water directly flows into the lower engine body water storage chamber from the upper engine body water storage chamber. The flow of the cooling water entering an engine body is reduced, and under the condition that heat dissipated by the engine is unchanged, the temperature rise of the cooling water flowing through the engine body such as a cylinder sleeve upper cooling water chamber and a cylinder sleeve lower water jacket is faster, such that an engine warming effect is improved.
Cooling water flow control device of cooling system for vehicle
A cooling water flow control device of a cooling system for a vehicle can shorten a warm-up time of a cooling water being supplied to an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler. The cooling water flow control device includes: the EGR cooler that cools an exhaust gas supplied to an intake system of an engine using cooling water and includes an EGR cooler outlet through which the cooling water is discharged; a water pump to circulate the cooling water to the EGR cooler and the engine at an engine startup; and a direct flow path connected to a vent hole formed in the engine to guide the cooling water from the vent hole to a downstream side of an EGR cooler outlet.
Mounting structure for engine coolant collector
An internal combustion engine system including a cylinder block, a cylinder head attached to the cylinder block, an EGR cooler, and a coolant collector bracket configured to vertically support the EGR cooler is provided. The cylinder head includes a lateral surface including a plurality of fasteners positioned along a bottom edge of the lateral surface. The cylinder head also includes a plurality of coolant passages. The coolant collector bracket is horizontally coupled to the cylinder head and perpendicularly coupled to the EGR cooler. The coolant collector bracket includes a plurality of mounting legs directly coupled to the lateral surface of the cylinder head. The plurality of mounting legs include a plurality of slots. The plurality of mounting legs are slidably inserted onto the plurality of fasteners of the cylinder head via the plurality of slots.
Cooling structure for internal combustion engine
A cooling structure of an internal combustion engine includes a thermostat provided to switch circulation between a radiator passage and a bypass passage in an engine body, to thereby enable acceleration of early warming up via the bypass passage without impairing the external appearance or increasing the size of the internal combustion engine. The cooling structure also includes an in-cylinder-block fluid passage partitioned up and down in an axial direction of a cylinder axis into an in-cylinder-block upper fluid passage and an in-cylinder-block lower fluid passage by a partition wall. The bypass passage is partially composed of the in-cylinder-bock lower fluid passage.
Cylinder head for an internal combustion engine
A cylinder head of an internal combustion engine, comprising at least one cylinder, a cooling jacket arrangement with a first cooling jacket arranged in the region of a longitudinal central plane of the cylinder head, a second cooling jacket facing a fire deck of the cylinder head, and a third cooling jacket facing away from the fire deck, wherein the first cooling jacket and the second cooling jacket are flow connected to the third cooling jacket via at least one first transfer section and at least one second transfer section respectively.
Engine jacket cooling system for locomotive
A jacket cooling system for an engine of a locomotive is disclosed. The jacket cooling system may comprise a jacket coolant pump driven by a crankshaft of the engine. The jacket cooling system may further comprise a coolant jacket associated with one or more components of the engine, and a delivery conduit in fluid communication with the outlet of the jacket coolant pump and configured to deliver a coolant from the jacket coolant pump to the coolant jacket. The jacket cooling system may further comprise a bypass circuit configured to divert the coolant away from the delivery conduit and the engine, and an electronically-controlled bypass valve in the bypass circuit. The bypass valve may allow at least some of the coolant to flow through the bypass circuit when a valve position of the bypass valve is at least partially open.
Marine engines and cooling systems for cooling lubricant in a crankcase of a marine engine
A marine engine has a powerhead, a crankcase and a crankshaft disposed in the crankcase. A cooling system has a cooling passage that conveys cooling water for cooling the crankcase, a pump that pumps the cooling water from a body of water in which the marine engine is operated through the cooling passage, and a valve that controls discharge of the cooling water from the cooling passage.
ENGINE THERMAL MANAGEMENT DEVICE ASSEMBLY HAVING AN ENGINE ACCESSORY MOUNTING BRACKET
An engine assembly having a thermal management device assembly is disclosed. The engine assembly includes an engine having an internal coolant passageway having at least one coolant port. The thermal management device assembly includes a rotary valve unit mounted on an engine accessory mounting bracket. The engine accessory mounting bracket includes an upper mounting platform having a mounting surface extending between an exterior face and an interior face of the mounting bracket, and at least one fluid channel extending through the mounting bracket from the mounting surface to the interior surface. The rotary valve unit is mounted onto the upper mounting platform. The at least one fluid channel of the engine accessory mount provides fluid communication between the coolant port of the internal coolant passageway of the engine and a valve port of the rotary valve unit.
