Engine system
The present disclosure relates to an engine system having an engine and a cooling system. An engine vent line is fluidly connected to the engine for venting air from the engine system and bypassing the coolant flow circuit. The engine vent line has a hydraulic diameter and length selected to provide a predetermined engine head loss for the engine and a rate of flow of coolant in the at least one engine vent line at or below a maximum engine vent flow rate target during operation of the engine. The engine vent line comprises a helical section in which a portion is formed into a helix.
COOLING CIRCUIT FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
The invention relates to a cooling circuit (1) which comprises a first cooling loop I designed to provide thermal control of a first member and at least one second cooling loop II, III designed to provide thermal control of a second member; moreover, the cooling circuit (1) comprises a single degassing tank (6) in fluid connection with the first loop and with the at least one second cooling loop II, III and an isolating valve (70, 700) inserted between the degassing tank (6) and the at least one second cooling loop II, III designed for selectively blocking the flow between the degassing tank 6 and the at least one second cooling loop II, III.
Package-storage type engine generator
In the present invention, a package is partitioned into upper and lower sections. An engine and a generator are both disposed in the lower section. In the upper section are disposed: a radiator chamber in which a radiator and a radiator fan are disposed, and an intake chamber in which an intake silencer is disposed. A ventilation hole directly communicates the radiator chamber with an engine chamber in which the engine and the generator are disposed. The ventilation hole is displaced from the radiator fan in a long-side direction of the package. A ventilation hood covers above and around the ventilation hole. An outlet opening of the ventilation hood is formed being displaced in a short-side direction (Y) of the package to face the ventilation hole.
BOTTOM COVER AND COOLING DUCT
A bottom cover includes a plate portion including an inner-peripheral-edge portion defining an inlet, and a cooling duct including an upper wall and a pair of right and left sidewalls. The upper wall includes an upper-wall front portion inclined upward in the vehicle-height direction at a predetermined inclination angle, an upper-wall rear portion inclined upward in the vehicle-height direction at an inclination angle larger than the predetermined inclination angle of the upper-wall front portion, and the first upper-wall bent portion located at a boundary between the upper-wall front portion and the upper-wall rear portion. The rear ends of the right and left sidewalls, the rear end of the inner-peripheral-edge portion, and the rear end of the upper wall define an outlet.
VENTED DEGAS BOTTLE FOR MOTOR VEHICLE COOLANT SYSTEM
A degas bottle for a motor vehicle coolant system is provided. The degas bottle has a body defining an enclosed cavity bounded by an upper wall, a lower wall and a side wall extending between said upper and lower walls. An inlet extends into an upper region of the cavity proximate the upper wall and an outlet extending outwardly from a lower region of the cavity proximate the lower wall. An interior wall is disposed in the enclosed cavity. The interior wall extends from the upper wall toward the lower wall to a free end spaced from the lower wall. The interior wall has a vent opening proximate the upper wall and extends to the side wall on opposite sides of the inlet. A baffle is disposed between the interior wall and the inlet. The baffle extends from one of the upper wall or the lower wall to a free end spaced from the other of the upper wall or the lower wall.
RESERVER TANK FOR MOTOR VEHICLE
Provided is a reserver tank for a motor vehicle, more particularly, a reserver tank for a motor vehicle including a lateral coupling portion for easy assembly and installation of the reserver tank in an internal portion of an engine room.
Thermal Storage Expansion Tank
A temperature control system for an engine. The system includes a thermal storage expansion tank defining a thermally insulated interior volume for storing engine coolant. The system further includes a pump that pumps engine coolant that has exited the thermal storage expansion tank back into the thermally insulated interior volume of the thermal storage expansion tank and forces air out of the thermal storage expansion tank to store coolant in the thermally insulated interior volume when the engine is off.
COOLANT FILLER NECK ASSEMBLY HAVING INTEGRATED COOLANT OVERFLOW RESERVOIR
A coolant filler neck assembly for a pressurized cooling system. The coolant filler neck includes a cylinder housing defining a non-pressurized coolant overflow reservoir; an upper cap member attached to an upper region of the cylinder housing, the upper cap member including an overflow inlet port member arranged internally in the coolant overflow reservoir and a filler pipe member in fluidic communication with the overflow inlet port member and the pressurized cooling system; a first fluid overflow tube member arranged internally in the coolant overflow reservoir to extend in a longitudinal direction though a first region of the non-pressurized coolant overflow reservoir to direct overflow liquid coolant to the non-pressurized coolant overflow reservoir; and a second fluid overflow tube member arranged internally in the coolant overflow reservoir to extend in a longitudinal direction though a second region of the non-pressurized coolant overflow reservoir to direct the overflow liquid coolant from the non-pressurized coolant overflow reservoir to the ambient environment.
DEVICE FOR CONDUCTING AIR WITH COOLING CHAMBER VENTING FOR AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE
The present disclosure relates to a device for conducting air, in particular inlet air distributor pipe, for an internal combustion engine with a plurality of cylinder heads. The device for conducting air includes a pipe body. The pipe body has an air distribution channel with a plurality of outlet openings for connecting to a plurality of inlet channels of the plurality of cylinder heads. The pipe body includes a plurality of single venting channels for connecting to a plurality of coolant chambers of the plurality of cylinder heads for venting the plurality of coolant chambers. The pipe body additionally includes a collective venting channel, the plurality of single venting channels discharging therein.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR A VENTILATING ARRANGEMENT
Methods and systems are provided for a ventilation arrangement. In one example, a system may include a compact ventilation arrangement arranged within a space between an intake manifold and a cylinder head. A pump of the ventilation arrangement arrange adjacent the cylinder head.
