发明名称 Unified rotary flow control valve for internal combustion engine cooling system
摘要 An enhanced split cooling system and method for a turbocharged internal combustion engine including a liquid cooled turbocharger 19 and an engine liquid coolant jacket 18, the system comprising a coolant pump 12 for pumping coolant from a coolant storage tank 16 in heat exchange relationship with the engine jacket 18 and turbocharger 19; an oil cooler 32 having coolant input and output lines; a valve assembly 74, 83 including a multi-port rotary valve actuated by a single actuator; a first coolant output line connected for conveying coolant from the engine to the valve assembly 74, 83; a radiator 22 connected via a second coolant line for receiving coolant from the valve assembly 74, 83 and having a coolant outflow line to return coolant to the coolant tank 16; an intercooler 28 operatively associated with the turbocharger 19 for passing the coolant in hear exchange relationship with compressed air in the turbocharger 19; a lube oil subcooler 46 coupled by a third coolant flow line to receive coolant from the radiator 22 and having a coolant outflow line selectively couplable through the valve assembly 74, 83 to the oil cooler 32 and the coolant tank 16; an intercooler subcooler 24 coupled by a fourth coolant flow line to receive coolant from the oil subcooler 46 and having a coolant outflow line selectively couplable through the valve assembly 74, 83 to the coolant tank 16 and the intercooler 28; and the valve assembly 74, 83 being independently operable for selectively directing coolant flow through the radiator 22 and subcoolers 46, 24 and the oil cooler 32 and intercooler 28 as a function of engine operating temperature.
