Description
La présente invention concerne un système de refroidissement pour un moteur à combustion interne équipant un véhicule automobile. L'invention concerne plus particulièrement un système de refroidissement adapté pour permettre le refroidissement de l'alternateur entraíné par le moteur.The present invention relates to a system of cooling for a combustion engine internal fitted to a motor vehicle. The invention relates more particularly to a cooling system adapted to allow the cooling of the alternator driven by the engine.
Les alternateurs des moteurs à combustion interne sont généralement fixés sur un support monté sur la paroi du bloc moteur de façon à permettre l'entraínement de l'arbre du rotor par le vilebrequin par l'intermédiaire d'une simple courroie. Or, les alternateurs sont constitués de composants électriques qui ne fonctionnent plus de façon parfaitement fiable lorsque la température ambiante devient trop élevée.Alternators of combustion engines internal are usually fixed on a support mounted on the wall of the engine block so that allow the rotor shaft to be driven by the crankshaft through a simple belt. However, alternators are made up of electrical components that no longer work perfectly reliable when the temperature room becomes too high.
Il en résulte que le dégagement de chaleur produit par l'alternateur en fonctionnement et par l'environnement du moteur, engendre une augmentation de la température ambiante rendant nécessaire de prévoir un dispositif de refroidissement de l'alternateur.As a result, the release of heat produced by the alternator in operation and by the engine environment, increase in ambient temperature making necessary to provide a device for alternator cooling.
La méthode la plus utilisée pour assurer un refroidissement correct d'un alternateur consiste en l'adjonction d'un ou plusieurs ventilateurs internes ou externes solidaires de l'arbre du rotor. Toutefois, cette méthode ne permet pas toujours un refroidissement suffisant en particulier pour les alternateurs de véhicule automobile dont les performances sont de plus en plus élevées dans un encombrement de plus en plus réduit.The most common method of ensuring correct cooling of an alternator consists by adding one or more fans internal or external integral with the shaft of the rotor. However, this method does not allow always sufficient cooling in particular for vehicle alternators automobile whose performance is increasing higher in more and more space reduced.
Une autre méthode qui permet d'obtenir un refroidissement plus efficace a été développée notamment dans le document FR-A-2.658.959. Elle consiste à ménager des canaux dans l'alternateur et à y faire circuler le liquide collecteur de calories utilisé pour refroidir le moteur. Le document JP-A-83557/1984 divulgue ainsi un système de refroidissement par liquide pour un moteur de véhicule automobile adapté pour permettre la circulation du liquide de refroidissement à l'intérieur de l'alternateur.Another method that provides more efficient cooling has been developed in particular in document FR-A-2,658.959. She consists in creating channels in the alternator and to circulate the collecting liquid therein calories used to cool the engine. The document JP-A-83557/1984 thus discloses a system liquid cooling for a motor motor vehicle adapted to allow coolant circulation at inside the alternator.
Selon ce document de l'art antérieur le système de refroidissement de l'alternateur est raccordé au collecteur d'entrée du liquide de refroidissement du bloc moteur. L'intégration de l'alternateur dans le système de refroidissement à la sortie de la pompe et en parallèle au bloc moteur (voir aussi US-A-4 864 974) rend l'équilibrage des débits difficile et ne permet pas d'assurer un débit suffisant du liquide de refroidissement à travers l'alternateur et donc d'assurer un refroidissement satisfaisant de ce dernier.According to this document of the prior art the alternator cooling system is connected to the liquid inlet manifold engine block cooling. The integration of the alternator in the cooling system at pump outlet and parallel to the block motor (see also US-A-4,864,974) makes balancing flow rates difficult and does not ensure sufficient flow of the coolant through the alternator and therefore ensure satisfactory cooling of the last.
Le but de la présente invention est d'améliorer encore l'efficacité d'un système de refroidissement par liquide pour moteur à combustion interne de véhicule automobile permettant de réaliser de façon simple le refroidissement de l'alternateur.The object of the present invention is further improve the efficiency of a liquid cooling for internal combustion of motor vehicle allowing to carry out in a simple way the alternator cooling.
Le système de refroidissement par liquide pour moteur à combustion interne équipant un véhicule automobile selon l'invention comporte un circuit interne traversant le bloc moteur, un échangeur de chaleur principal du type liquide/air et une pompe entraínant le liquide.The liquid cooling system for internal combustion engine fitted to a motor vehicle according to the invention comprises a internal circuit passing through the engine block, a main liquid / air type heat exchanger and a pump driving the liquid.
Selon l'invention le système de refroidissement est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend un circuit de refroidissement dérivé desservant un alternateur entraíné par le moteur par lequel le liquide de refroidissement introduit dans l'alternateur est prélevé en sortie du circuit interne du bloc moteur et est refoulé à l'entrée dudit circuit interne et le circuit de refroidissement dérivé comporte un échangeur secondaire liquide/air disposé en amont de l'alternateur.According to the invention the system of cooling is characterized in that it includes a derivative cooling system serving an alternator driven by the engine by which the coolant introduced in the alternator is taken from the circuit internal of the engine block and is driven back to the inlet of said internal circuit and the circuit bypass cooling has a heat exchanger secondary liquid / air disposed upstream of the alternator.
Selon une caractéristique préférentielle du système de refroidissement objet de l'invention, la circulation à l'intérieur du circuit de refroidissement dérivé est pilotée par un thermostat.According to a preferred characteristic of the system cooling object of the invention, the circulation within the circuit derivative cooling is controlled by a thermostat.
Selon une caractéristique préférentielle du système de refroidissement objet de l'invention, le circuit dérivé de refroidissement de l'alternateur est raccordé d'une part, en amont dans le sens de l'écoulement du liquide de refroidissement, à la canalisation qui relie la sortie du circuit interne du bloc moteur à l'entrée de l'échangeur de chaleur principal, et d'autre part en aval, à la canalisation qui relie la sortie de l'échangeur de chaleur principal à l'entrée du circuit interne du bloc moteur.According to a preferred characteristic of the system cooling object of the invention, the circuit alternator cooling derivative is connected on the one hand, upstream in the direction of the coolant flow, at the pipe that connects the output of the internal circuit from the engine block to the inlet of the heat exchanger main, and secondly downstream, to the pipe which connects the outlet of the heat exchanger main heat at the input of the internal circuit of the engine block.
Selon une autre caractéristique préférentielle du système de refroidissement objet de l'invention, les caractéristiques structurelles de l'échangeur de chaleur principal et de l'échangeur secondaire sont adaptés en fonction des débits respectifs de liquide de refroidissement qui les traversent.According to another preferred characteristic of the system cooling object of the invention, the structural characteristics of the heat exchanger main heat and secondary heat exchanger are adapted according to the respective flow rates of coolant flowing through them.
Selon une autre caractéristique préférentielle du système de refroidissement objet de l'invention, l'échangeur de chaleur principal et l'échangeur secondaire sont disposés en deux endroits distincts du compartiment moteur.According to another preferred characteristic of the system cooling object of the invention, the main heat exchanger and the exchanger secondary are arranged in two separate places of the engine compartment.
On comprendra mieux les buts, aspects et avantages de la présente invention, d'après la description donnée ci-après d'un mode de réalisation de l'invention appliqué à un moteur à combustion interne, ce mode de réalisation étant donné à titre d'exemple non limitatif, en se référant au dessin annexé, dans lequel :
- la figure 1 représente schématiquement un système de refroidissement selon l'invention.
- Figure 1 schematically shows a cooling system according to the invention.
La figure 1 présente donc un système de
refroidissement, repéré par la référence 1 sur le
dessin, par liquide (généralement de l'eau
additionnée d'un antigel et d'un produit anticorrosion)
plus particulièrement destiné au
refroidissement d'un moteur à combustion interne 2
par exemple du type multicylindre équipant un
véhicule automobile. Seuls les éléments nécessaires
à la compréhension de l'invention ont été figurés.Figure 1 therefore presents a system of
cooling, identified by
Le système de refroidissement par liquide
présenté comporte classiquement un circuit interne
12 (encore appelées chambres d'eau) traversant le
bloc moteur 2 pour refroidir les chambres de
combustion. Le liquide de refroidissement est
refroidi par un balayage d'air dans un radiateur
constitué par un échangeur de chaleur principal 4
liquide/air. Le liquide est entraíné par une pompe
3 placée immédiatement en amont du circuit interne
12 du moteur 2. La canalisation 10 reliant la
sortie du circuit interne 12 à l'échangeur
principal 4 comporte un thermostat 5 qui définit un
branchement de by-pass 13 desservant un aérotherme
6 pour le chauffage de l'habitat et un vase
d'expansion 7. Une canalisation 11 assure le retour
du liquide de l'échangeur principal 4 à l'entrée du
circuit interne 12.The liquid cooling system
presented conventionally includes an internal circuit
12 (also called water chambers) crossing the
Le système de refroidissement comprend de
plus un circuit de refroidissement dérivé 14
comportant un échangeur secondaire liquide/air 8 et
l'alternateur 9. Suivant la réalisation de
l'invention, le liquide de refroidissement
introduit dans l'alternateur est prélevé en sortie
du circuit interne 12 du moteur 2 et est refoulé à
l'entrée de ce dernier.The cooling system includes
plus a
A cet effet, le circuit 14 de
refroidissement de l'alternateur 9 est raccordé
d'une part, en amont dans le sens de l'écoulement
du liquide de refroidissement, à la canalisation 10
qui relie la sortie du circuit interne 12 du bloc
moteur 2 à l'entrée de l'échangeur de chaleur
principal 4, la connexion pouvant être réalisée
avant (Cf figure 1) ou après le thermostat 5, et
d'autre part en aval, à la canalisation 11 qui
relie la sortie de l'échangeur de chaleur principal
4 à l'entrée du circuit interne 12 du bloc moteur
2.To this end,
La connexion du circuit dérivé 14 destiné
au refroidissement de l'alternateur 9, à la sortie
du circuit interne 12 du moteur 2, permet
d'accroítre sensiblement le débit de liquide à
travers l'alternateur 9 quel que soit le point de
fonctionnement du moteur, et donc d'améliorer
l'élimination des calories en comparaison des
systèmes connus dans lesquels le circuit dérivé est
alimenté en amont du circuit interne 12 du moteur
2. La température plus élevée du liquide en sortie
de moteur 2 est largement atténuée par l'échangeur
de température secondaire 8 disposé en amont de
l'alternateur 9. The connection of the
Par ailleurs, dans les systèmes de l'art
antérieur, la quantité de chaleur supplémentaire
transmis au liquide de refroidissement par
l'alternateur 9 nécessite d'augmenter la puissance
évacuable par l'échangeur principal 4. La solution
adoptée conformément à la présente invention
d'utiliser un échangeur secondaire 8 disposé dans
le circuit dérivé dans lequel ne circule qu'une
partie du débit global permet de réduire les
surfaces d'échanges nécessaires, de plus cet
échangeur secondaire peut être géographiquement
dissocié de l'échangeur principal, ce qui permet
d'optimiser l'implantation du système de
refroidissement dans le compartiment moteur du
véhicule automobile. La séparation des échangeurs
de chaleur 4 et 8 permet également d'utiliser pour
chacun d'eux des solutions techniques offrant des
caractéristiques d'échanges thermiques différentes
(formes des ailettes, des faisceaux, etc.).By the way, in art systems
previous the amount of additional heat
transmitted to the coolant by
Le fonctionnement d'un tel système est le
suivant. Quand le moteur est froid, le thermostat 5
est fermé et le liquide ne circule pas dans
l'échangeur principal 4 mais seulement dans le
circuit dérivé 14 et dans le circuit de by-pass 13
desservant l'aérotherme 6. Quand le moteur
s'échauffe le thermostat s'ouvre permettant alors
au liquide de circuler tout à la fois dans
l'échangeur principal 4, dans l'aérotherme 6, et
dans le circuit dérivé 14 desservant
l'alternateur 9.The functioning of such a system is the
following. When the engine is cold,
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est nullement limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et illustré qui n'a été donné qu'à titre d'exemple. Of course, the invention is by no means limited to the embodiment described and illustrated which was only given as an example.
Ainsi, il est possible de commander la
circulation du liquide de refroidissement dans le
circuit dérivé en fonction de la température du
liquide en utilisant un thermostat spécifique ou en
connectant l'entrée du circuit dérivé à la
canalisation de sortie du liquide qui relie le bloc
moteur 2 à l'échangeur de chaleur principal 4, ou
après le thermostat 5.Thus, it is possible to order the
coolant circulation in the
derivative circuit depending on the temperature of the
liquid using a specific thermostat or
connecting the input of the branch circuit to the
liquid outlet pipe that connects the
Ainsi, il est possible en lieu et place
d'un circuit dérivé spécifique au refroidissement
de l'alternateur 9 tel que représenté à la figure
1, de modifier le circuit de by-pass de
l'aérotherme pour y inclure les chambres d'eau de
l'alternateur 9 et l'échangeur de chaleur
secondaire 8 qui sont alors disposés en série avec
l'aérotherme 6.So it is possible instead
a specific branch circuit for cooling
