Heat exchangers with enhanced efficiency
An additive manufactured heat exchanger includes a monolithic housing defining an outer surface, a plurality of first fluid passageways extending between a first fluid inlet and a first fluid outlet, and a plurality of second fluid passageways extending between a second fluid inlet and a second fluid outlet. A cross section of the outer surface defines an irregular shape, the plurality of first fluid passageways and the plurality of second fluid passageways define a convoluted flow matrix within the monolithic housing, and the outer surface of the monolithic housing is complimentary to a space between at least two components of a vehicle. The monolithic housing can also include a plurality of third fluid passageways extending between a third fluid inlet and a third fluid outlet.
Construction machine
Two oil coolers (30, 32) are disposed so as to face each other in a front half of the inside of a heat exchanger chamber (26) defined in an upper revolving body (5), one oil cooler (31) is disposed in a rear half, and a space (E) formed between the oil coolers is used as work and passage spaces. Outside air as cooling air is allowed to pass through the respective oil coolers (30 to 32) by cooling fans (35), and cooling air that has passed through each of the two oil coolers (30, 32) disposed so as to face each other is made to mutually collide, and is discharged to the outside through a side outlet (38) of a front wall (26a) and a first upper outlet (39) of a ceiling (26e) of the heat exchanger chamber (26). Cooling air that has passed through the other one oil cooler (31) is made to collide with a left side wall (26c), and is discharged to the outside through a second upper outlet (40) of the ceiling (26e).
Cooling system
A cooling system of a hybrid vehicle includes a radiator, an openable and closable first shutter, an openable and closable second shutter, and a control device. The radiator is placed forward of an internal combustion engine and a heat generation device configured to generate heat along with operation of the drive motor, and the radiator communicates with the heat generation device and the internal combustion engine such that a coolant circulates through the internal combustion engine and the heat generation device. The first shutter extends from a front end of an undercover so as to cross between the radiator, and the heat generation device and the internal combustion engine. The second shutter extends between a front end part of the undercover and a lower part of the radiator. The control device controls opening and closing of the first shutter and the second shutter.
