Device for cooling charge air, system for conditioning charge air, and intake module for an internal combustion engine

摘要

The present invention relates to a device for cooling charge air for an internal combustion engine of a vehicle. The device comprises a plurality of first coolant pipes for conducting a first coolant and a plurality of second coolant pipes for conducting a second coolant, wherein the first coolant pipes and the second coolant pipes extend in a longitudinal extension direction of the device and the plurality of first coolant pipes is arranged adjacent to the plurality of second coolant pipes in a transverse extension direction of the device.

主权项

1. An intake module for supplying an internal combustion engine of a vehicle with compressed and cooled charge air, wherein the intake module comprises the following features:
a housing for conducting the charge air from a compressor of the vehicle to the internal combustion engine of the vehicle, wherein the housing forms a flow channel for the charge air and has an opening for receiving a device for cooling charge air for an internal combustion engine of a vehicle; and a device for cooling charge air for an internal combustion engine of a vehicle wherein the device comprises the following features:
a plurality of first coolant pipes for conducting a first coolant;a plurality of second coolant pipes for conducting a second coolant, wherein the first coolant pipes and the second coolant pipes extend along a longitudinal extension direction of the device and the plurality of first coolant pipes is arranged adjacent to the plurality of second coolant pipes in a transverse extension direction of the device;a first base and an associated tank which surrounds an end region of the plurality of first coolant pipes and of the plurality of second coolant pipes, anda second base and associated tank which surrounds a further end region opposite the end region of the plurality of first coolant pipes and of the plurality of second coolant pipes;wherein the tanks have separators that prevents mixing of the first coolant and second coolant,wherein the device is received by the opening in the housing such that the plurality of first coolant pipes and the plurality of second coolant pipes are arranged transverse to the flow channel for the charge air, such that the plurality of first coolant pipes is located upstream in the flow channel and the plurality of second coolant pipes is located downstream in the flow channel,wherein the first base has a flange which extends at least partly around a periphery of the device, wherein the flange mounts the device to the housing and seals the flow channel within the intake module against the outside of the intake module.
