Vehicular heat accumulating system
A heat accumulating unit includes an upstream heat accumulator and a downstream heat accumulator each accommodating a supercooling heat accumulating material. Each of the upstream heat accumulator and the downstream heat accumulator has a channel in which fluid flows. In heat accumulation of the supercooling heat accumulating material, the channel of the upstream heat accumulator and the channel of the downstream heat accumulator are set in a serial connection state by a serial connection pipe. In a temperature rise mode, fluid that has passed through the channel of the upstream heat accumulator flows in a bypass pipe.
Arrangement of exchangers for marinization of a marine engine
An arrangement of exchangers for marinization of a marine engine, including an engine block with in-line cylinders or cylinders in a V, cooled by a cooling fluid, at least one turbocompressor with a hot chamber connected to an outlet and a cold chamber connected to the cylinders of the engine block, a reverser including a housing and containing oil, wherein the arrangement includes: a radiator hose for supplying cooling water, a turbocompressor exchanger, an engine exchanger, a reverser exchanger, a radiator hose for discharging cooling water toward an outlet of combustion gases, downstream from the hot chamber of the at least one turbocompressor,
with these three exchangers being placed in this order and inserted in the circulation direction of the water between the radiator hose for supplying the cooling water and the radiator hose for discharging this same cooling water.
UTILITY VEHICLE FLUID COOLING
A cooling system for a utility vehicle comprises a first fluid circuit including a first fluid such as hydraulic oil and a second fluid circuit including a second fluid such as a coolant or lubricant. A heat exchanger couples the first and second fluid circuits enabling transfer of heat from one of the first and second fluids to the other. A fluid cooler in the first fluid circuit has a fan arranged to direct an airflow towards it, which fan is a hydraulically driven device connected in the first fluid circuit and driven by flow of the first fluid.
Transmission cooler thermal bypass device
A transmission cooler thermal bypass device that includes a body having a front side, a back side, a top side, and a bottom side. A first opening, a second opening, a third opening, and a fourth opening, whereby a first passageway connects the first opening and the second opening, and a second passageway connects the third opening and the fourth opening. At least one fin. The first passageway and the second passageway do not include a flow control valve.
Drive System
An object of this invention is to efficiently warm up a catalyst and keep its temperature. Provided is a drive system, including: an internal combustion engine; a catalytic unit configured to purify an exhaust gas from the internal combustion engine; a motor used for at least one of drive or regeneration; and a flow path formed so as to allow an oil-based medium for lubricating the motor to flow in the vicinity of the catalytic unit. The oil-based medium is heated in the motor and exchanges heat in the catalytic unit to heat the catalytic unit.
Diverter fittings for cooling systems of an engine
A passive diverter fitting for a cooling system of an engine includes a base defining an interior cavity, an inlet opening extending through the base that is in fluid communication with the interior cavity, an outlet opening that is in fluid communication with the interior cavity, and a bypass opening that is in fluid communication with the interior cavity. The base is configured to be removably disposed in a cavity of an engine block. The inlet opening is positioned to receive coolant when the passive diverter fitting is disposed in the cavity of the engine block. The outlet opening is in fluid communication with the area exterior to the engine block when the passive diverter fitting is disposed in the cavity of the engine block. The bypass opening is in fluid communication with an interior coolant passage of the engine block when the passive diverter fitting is disposed in the cavity of the engine block.
Cooling system of hybrid vehicle and control method for the same
A cooling system of a hybrid vehicle include an engine, a drive motor, a main water pump, a cooling line, a heat-exchange line, a heater line on which a heater and an exhaust heat recovery device are provided, a coolant control valve unit selectively supplying coolant to the cooling line, the heat-exchange line and the heater line, a bypass line connecting the rear of the exhaust heat recovery device and the front of the heater, an auxiliary water pump that selectively supplies coolant from the exhaust heat recovery device to the front of the heater, a state measurement unit that measures an operation state of the vehicle and outputs a corresponding signal, and a controller configured for controlling operation of the engine, the drive motor, the main water pump, the coolant control valve unit and the auxiliary water pump according to the output signal of the state measurement unit.
TEMPERATURE-CONTROLLING WATER VALVE
A temperature-controlling water valve is provided. An adjusting assembly is assembled within the water valve and includes an adjusting member, a first elastic member, a blocking member and an abutting member. The first elastic member biases the abutting member, and the blocking member is fixed to the adjusting member to block the abutting member from detaching from a receiving hole of the adjusting member. A temperature-controlling assembly includes a valve member and a second elastic member biasing the valve member. Thermal expansion or contraction of a rod member of the valve member drives the valve member to move so that an overlapping area of the valve member and a first passageway of the water valve and an overlapping area of the valve member and a second passageway of the water valve change.
Heat exchanging member, heat exchanger and heat exchanger with purifier
A heat exchanging member including a hollow pillar shaped honeycomb structure having partition walls defining cells, the cells penetrating from a first end face to a second end face to form flow paths for a first fluid, an inner peripheral wall, and an outer peripheral wall; and a covering member being configured to cover the outer peripheral wall of the pillar shaped honeycomb structure. The heat exchanging member is configured to perform heat exchange between the first fluid and a second fluid flowing through an outer side of the covering member. In the heat exchanging member, in a cross section of the pillar shaped honeycomb structure perpendicular to a flow path direction of the first fluid, the cells are radially provided, and each of the inner peripheral wall and the outer peripheral wall has a thickness larger than that of each of the partition walls.
ENGINE SYSTEM
An engine system is provided, including an engine having a water jacket, a circulation system that circulates coolant through the water jacket, and a controller. The circulation system includes a radiator passage including a heat exchanger, a bypass passage bypassing the heat exchanger, a flow rate control device, and a thermally-actuated valve connected to the radiator passage and that opens to allow the coolant to pass through the heat exchanger. When an engine load is below a first load, the controller controls the flow rate control device to adjust the coolant flow rate flowing through the water jacket according to the load, by closing the radiator passage and adjusting the coolant flow rate flowing through the bypass passage. When the load is above the first load, the controller controls the flow rate control device so that the coolant flows through each of the radiator passage and the bypass passage.
