Ein Wärmeübertrager (1) nach den Fig. 1 bis 3 stellt eine Kombination aus einem Kondensator und einem Ölkühler dar, der für den Einbau in einem Kraftfahrzeug vorgesehen ist. Der Wärmeübertrager weist zwei seitliche Sammelrohre (2, 3) auf, zwischen denen sich in an sich bekannter Weise ein Rippen/Rohrblock (4) erstreckt. Der Rippen/Rohrblock (4) weist eine Vielzahl von parallel und in Abstand zueinander angeordneten Flachrohren (5) auf, zwischen denen in nicht dargestellter, aber bekannter Weise Wellrippen angeordnet sind.A heat exchanger (1) according to FIGS. 1 to 3 represents a combination of one Condenser and an oil cooler, which is intended for installation in a motor vehicle is. The heat exchanger has two side manifolds (2, 3) between which a ribs / tube block (4) extends in a manner known per se. The Ribs / tube block (4) has a plurality of parallel and spaced apart Flat tubes (5), between which in a not shown, but known Way corrugated fins are arranged.
Der Wärmeübertrager (1) ist in zwei unterschiedliche Kühlbereiche (19, 20) unterteilt, von denen der in Fig. 1 obere Kühlbereich (19) Teil eines Kühlkreislaufes zur Kühlung eines Motors des Kraftfahrzeugs ist. Eine erste Rohrleitung (6), die in einem oberen Endbereich an das Sammelrohr (2) anschließt, dient als Zulauf dieses Kühlkreislaufes zu dem Wärmeübertrager (1), ein unteres Rohr (7), das im Bereich eines unteren Endes des Kühlbereiches (19) für den ersten Kühlkreislauf an das Sammelrohr (2) angeschlossen ist, bildet einen Rücklauf für diesen Kühlkreislauf. Zur sicheren Führung einer Kühlflüssigkeit für den oberen Kühlkreislauf vom Sammelrohr (2) durch den Rippen/Rohrblock (4) zum Sammelrohr (3) und zurück ist wenigstens in dem Sammelrohr (2) auf halber Länge seiner für den oberen Kühlkreislauf vorgesehenen Strömungskammer eine die Strömungskammer in zwei Kammerabschnitte unterteilende Schottwand vorgesehen.The heat exchanger (1) is divided into two different cooling areas (19, 20), of which the upper cooling area (19) in FIG. 1 is part of a cooling circuit for cooling an engine of the motor vehicle. A first pipe (6), which is in an upper End area connects to the manifold (2) serves as the inlet of this cooling circuit to the heat exchanger (1), a lower tube (7) which in the area of a lower end of the cooling area (19) for the first cooling circuit to the manifold (2) is connected, forms a return for this cooling circuit. For safe Guiding a coolant for the upper cooling circuit from the manifold (2) through the fins / tube block (4) to the manifold (3) and back is at least in the manifold (2) at half its length intended for the upper cooling circuit Flow chamber a the flow chamber in two chamber sections dividing bulkhead provided.
Ein unterer Kühlbereich (20) des Wärmeübertragers (1) ist in strömungstechnischer
Hinsicht vollkommen von dem oberen Kühlbereich (19) getrennt. Der untere Kühlkreislauf
weist beim dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel als Kühlflüssigkeit Öl auf, so
dass der untere Kühlbereich (20) einen Ölkühler darstellt. Beim dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel
dient dieser untere Kühlbereich in dem Wärmeübertragersystem (1) zur
Kühlung von Servoöl für eine Servolenkung des Kraftfahrzeugs. Selbstverständlich
kann dieser untere Kühlbereich (20) auch für andere Arten von Wärmeübertragern
eingesetzt werden. Beide Sammelrohre (2, 3) sind auf gleicher Höhe, d.h. auf gleicher
Länge des jeweiligen Sammelrohres (2, 3), mit jeweils einer Trennwandanordnung
(10) versehen, die aus zwei parallel und in Abstand zueinander angeordneten
Abschlusswänden (14, 16) besteht. Die beiden oberen Abschlusswände (14) schließen
die beiden oberen Strömungskammern der Sammelrohre (2 und 3) für den ersten
Kühlkreislauf zu dem unteren Kühlbereich (20) hin dicht ab. Die beiden unteren
Abschlusswände (16) der Trennwandanordnung (10) schließen eine untere Strömungskammer
in jedem Sammelrohr (2, 3) nach oben ab, wobei beide Strömungskammem
in den Sammelrohren (2, 3) Teil des unteren Kühlbereiches (20) für einen
weiteren Kühlkreislauf mit einer von der Kühlflüssigkeit für den oberen Kühlkreislauf
verschiedenen Kühlflüssigkeit sind. Dazu sind an die untere Strömungskammer des
Sammelrohres (2) zwei weitere Rohranschlüsse (8, 9) angeschlossen, wobei die
Rohrleitung (8) einen Zulauf und die Rohrleitung (9) einen Rücklauf für den
Kühlkreislauf des unteren Kühlbereiches (20) bilden. Zwischen den beiden
Abschlusswänden (14, 16) jeder Trennwandanordnung (10) verbleibt ein
Zwischenraum (15), der als Leckageraum dient. Sollte einer der beiden
Abschlusswände (14, 16) undicht sein, so tritt die leckende Kühlflüssigkeit in diesen
Zwischenraum (15) ein, so dass sie sich nicht mit der Kühlflüssigkeit des anderen
Kühlkreislaufes vermischen kann. Auch für den Fall, dass beide Abschlusswände
(14, 16) undicht sind, kann keine Kühlflüssigkeit in den Kühlkreislauf des anderen
Kühlbereiches (19, 20) eintreten, da sich die Kühlflüssigkeiten (2) lediglich in dem
Zwischenraum (15) miteinander vermischen werden. Aufgrund der wesentlich
höheren Drücke in den jeweiligen Strömungskammern der beiden Kühlbereiche (19,
20) werden die vermischten Kühlflüssigkeiten aus dem Zwischenraum (15) jedoch
weder in den oberen noch in den unteren Kühlbereich (19, 20) gelangen können. Um
Leckageverluste in einem der beiden Kühlkreisläufe oder in beiden Kühlkreisläufen
erkennen und beheben zu können, ist der Zwischenraum (15) in dem Sammelrohr (2)
mit einer nach außen führenden Kontrollbohrung (17) versehen. Sobald eine der
beiden Abschlusswände (14, 16) leckt, so tritt die entsprechende Kühlflüssigkeit
durch den Zwischenraum (15) und die Kontrollbohrung (17) nach außen. Je nach
Beschaffenheit der Kühlflüssigkeit ist auch sofort erkennbar, welcher der beiden
Kühlkreisläufe undicht ist.
Um zu verhindern, dass die Zwischenräume (15) der beiden Trennwandanordnungen
(10) durch ein Flachrohr miteinander in Verbindung stehen, ist auf Höhe der beiden
Trennwandabschnitte (10) anstelle eines Flachrohres (5) ein Trennsteg (11) vorgesehen,
dessen Außenabmessungen denen eines Flachrohres (5) entsprechen. Der
Trennsteg (11) weist im Gegensatz zu den Flachrohren (5) jedoch einen vollen Querschnitt
auf.A lower cooling area (20) of the heat exchanger (1) is completely separated from the upper cooling area (19) in terms of flow. In the exemplary embodiment shown, the lower cooling circuit has oil as the cooling liquid, so that the lower cooling region (20) represents an oil cooler. In the illustrated embodiment, this lower cooling area in the heat exchanger system (1) is used to cool servo oil for power steering of the motor vehicle. Of course, this lower cooling area (20) can also be used for other types of heat exchangers. Both collecting tubes (2, 3) are provided at the same height, ie at the same length of the respective collecting tube (2, 3), each with a partition arrangement (10) which consists of two end walls (14, 16) arranged parallel and at a distance from one another , The two upper end walls (14) close off the two upper flow chambers of the header pipes (2 and 3) for the first cooling circuit towards the lower cooling area (20). The two lower end walls (16) of the partition arrangement (10) close off a lower flow chamber in each manifold (2, 3), both flow chambers in the manifolds (2, 3) forming part of the lower cooling area (20) for a further cooling circuit with a coolant different from the coolant for the upper cooling circuit. For this purpose, two further pipe connections (8, 9) are connected to the lower flow chamber of the collecting pipe (2), the pipe (8) forming an inlet and the pipe (9) forming a return for the cooling circuit of the lower cooling area (20). An intermediate space (15) remains between the two end walls (14, 16) of each partition arrangement (10) and serves as a leakage space. If one of the two end walls (14, 16) is leaking, the leaking coolant enters this space (15) so that it cannot mix with the coolant of the other cooling circuit. In the event that both end walls (14, 16) are leaking, no cooling liquid can enter the cooling circuit of the other cooling area (19, 20), since the cooling liquids (2) will only mix with one another in the intermediate space (15). However, due to the significantly higher pressures in the respective flow chambers of the two cooling areas (19, 20), the mixed cooling liquids from the intermediate space (15) will not be able to get into the upper or lower cooling area (19, 20). In order to be able to identify and remedy leakage losses in one of the two cooling circuits or in both cooling circuits, the intermediate space (15) in the collecting pipe (2) is provided with a control bore (17) leading to the outside. As soon as one of the two end walls (14, 16) leaks, the corresponding coolant flows out through the intermediate space (15) and the control hole (17). Depending on the nature of the coolant, you can immediately see which of the two cooling circuits is leaking.
To prevent the gaps (15) of the two partition assemblies (10) from being connected to each other by a flat tube, a partition (11) is provided at the level of the two partition sections (10) instead of a flat tube (5), the external dimensions of which are those of one Correspond to the flat tube (5). In contrast to the flat tubes (5), the separating web (11) has a full cross section.
Dem unteren Kühlbereich sind neben den entsprechenden unteren Strömungskammerabschnitten in den Sammelrohren (2 und 3) insgesamt vier Flachrohre (5) zugeordnet, wobei zwei obere Flachrohre (5) dem Zulauf und zwei untere Flachrohre (5) dem Rücklauf zugeordnet sind. Eine Schottwand (12) unterteilt die untere Strömungskammer des Sammelrohres (2) in zwei Abschnitte, die den Kreislauf der Kühlflüssigkeit durch die Flachrohre (5) bewirkt. Eine in der Schottwand (12) vorgesehene Bypassbohrung (13) verhindert einen Druckabfall in dem unteren Kühlkreislauf. Die unteren Stimenden der unteren Strömungskammern der beiden Sammelrohre (2 und 3) werden durch jeweils eine Abschlusswand (18) verschlossen.The lower cooling area is next to the corresponding lower flow chamber sections assigned a total of four flat tubes (5) in the header tubes (2 and 3), wherein two upper flat tubes (5) the inlet and two lower flat tubes (5) are assigned to the return. A bulkhead (12) divides the lower flow chamber the manifold (2) in two sections, the circuit of the coolant caused by the flat tubes (5). One provided in the bulkhead (12) Bypass hole (13) prevents a pressure drop in the lower cooling circuit. The lower ends of the lower flow chambers of the two manifolds (2 and 3) are closed by a respective end wall (18).
Der erfindungsgemäße Wärmeübertrager (1) nach den Fig. 1 bis 3 weist somit zwei vollkommen voneinander unabhängige Kühlkreisläufe auf, wobei im wesentlichen die Bauelemente eines an sich bekannten Wärmeübertragers eingesetzt werden. Die Modifizierung eines bekannten Wärmeübertragers zu dem erfindungsgemäßen Wärmeübertrager mit zwei voneinander unabhängigen Kühlkreisläufen erfolgt durch wenige und einfache Maßnahmen, indem lediglich in die Sammelrohre (2 und 3) zusätzliche Abschlusswände (14, 16) eingezogen werden und eines der Flachrohre (5) auf Höhe der Abschlusswände (14, 16) durch einen Trennsteg (11) mit vollem Querschnitt ersetzt wird. Auch das Anschließen der zusätzlichen Rohranschlüsse erfolgt ohne großen Aufwand.The heat exchanger (1) according to FIGS. 1 to 3 thus has two completely independent cooling circuits, with essentially the Components of a heat exchanger known per se can be used. The Modification of a known heat exchanger to the invention Heat exchangers with two independent cooling circuits are made by few and simple measures by simply adding additional ones to the manifolds (2 and 3) End walls (14, 16) are pulled in and one of the flat tubes (5) at the level of the end walls (14, 16) through a partition (11) with a full cross-section is replaced. The additional pipe connections are also connected without much effort.
Der Wärmeübertrager gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung ist nicht nur als Kombination aus Kondensator und Ölkühler, sondern auch als Heizkörper in analoger Weise einsetzbar.The heat exchanger according to the present invention is not just a combination from condenser and oil cooler, but also as a radiator in an analogous manner used.
