Coolant Conditioning Unit
The temperature of the cooling water of an internal combustion engine has an influence on the engine’s performance. The temperature of the cooling fluid influences both the thermodynamic and mechanic behavior of the engine, and this has an effect on fuel consumption and exhaust gas quality. Therefore, test results, obtained on engine test beds, can only be reproduced and clearly interpreted, if the temperature of the cooling remains on a constant value or, if necessary, can be changed in a presupposed way. Depending on the engine’s speed and load, the coolant can be cooled or heated. These temperature control functions can be managed automatically with the cooling water temperature controller. The cooling water temperature controller regulates the engine coolant temperature. The adjustment of the set points is being regulated by the control unit. With a well tuned cooling fluid temperature controller the ranges of temperature will be less than 2 degrees K during dynamic testing. The device is suitable for a range of very small engines up to 200 / 400 / 600 kW shaft power.
