Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for cooling a gas flow of an internal combustion engine according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • heat exchangers are known, which include exchanger tubes made of stainless steel due to the high temperatures and high corrosivity of the exhaust gas. Such exchanger tubes are connected via holding means such as bottom pieces with a coolant-carrying housing, wherein the production of such heat exchangers is generally expensive.
  • exhaust gas can under a gas flow in the context of the invention charge air z. B. from a turbocharger or an exhaust-air mixture are understood. These gas streams also often require cooling before being fed to the internal combustion engine in order to ensure the function and efficiency of the internal combustion engine.
  • This object is achieved by the invention with an aforementioned device in which the characterizing features of claim 1 are provided according to the invention. Due to the integral formation of material of the two wall sections a separation of the environment and coolant and a separation of coolant and gas flow is at least partially ensured by the same one-piece component. This allows a particularly favorable production of the housing, since this does not have to be composed of several components, at least in the areas of the wall sections, either by mechanical fastening using sealants or be it by soldering or welding.
  • the unitary material formation in the sense of the invention comprises a uniform, seamless production of the two wall sections comprehensive housing part.
  • the first and the second wall portion of the housing made of a light metal, in particular based on aluminum.
  • Aluminum is both easy to build and inexpensive moldable.
  • the molding of a housing part comprising the first and the second wall section takes place as a cast part, in particular a diecast part.
  • This cost-effective production of a lightweight housing is especially in the case of cooling a hot exhaust stream at least in the region of the exhaust gas inlet into the housing, especially made possible by the fact that the aluminum is cooled directly by the particular liquid coolant.
  • the coolant may be, for. B. to act the main coolant of the engine and / or an additional, in particular cooled to ambient temperature cooling circuit.
  • the cast housing part has a first demoulding side and a second demolding side, wherein the first demolding side for guiding the coolant and the second demoulding side mung side is designed to guide the gas.
  • a housing part comprising the first and the second wall section is designed as an extruded profile.
  • Extruded profiles are particularly inexpensive to produce and can have very complex cross-sectional shapes.
  • a crystalline structure of the aluminum is achieved, which has a particularly good corrosion resistance.
  • the cooling of hot, corrosive exhaust gas is well possible.
  • Important in the use of extruded profiles in particular for the cooling of exhaust gas is the avoidance of a subsequent strong heating of the pressed profiles, such as in a brazing furnace, since in this case the good corrosive properties can be lost again.
  • the first and the second wall portion of the housing may be formed of a one-piece sheet metal part, which consists in particular of a stainless steel.
  • sheet metal forming can take place by means of simple deep-drawing, which results in cost-effective production with little scrap.

If both the cover part and the housing are made of a light metal alloy based on aluminum, such a soldering of a mechanically preassembled heat exchanger can take place, for example, in a brazing furnace. Depending on the design, it can also be a local soldering or welding process.

  • the cover part has at least two, in particular three, plate-like elements arranged on top of each other, wherein the channel is formed by a recess in at least one of the plate-like elements.
  • the cover part preferably has an overflow opening for connecting the channel to the further housing. As a result, both the cover part and the further housing can be flowed through and cooled by means of a single supply of the coolant.
  • the exchange means is formed in an advantageous embodiment as in particular connected to the cover part module. In this way, a supply or discharge of the coolant can be provided on the cover part, wherein in addition a preliminary test for reducing the rejects in the production is made possible in a simple manner.
  • the exchange means is designed as a stack of disks, wherein in particular the stack can be flowed through by the coolant and can be flowed around by the gas. In this way, a simple to manufacture embodiment of the exchange means is given, which also has a high exchange performance with a small size and can be integrated inexpensively and easily into the housing of the device according to the invention.
  • the exchange means may also be formed as a casting, in particular die casting with a plurality of cooling fins. As a result, the exchange means can be produced particularly inexpensively.
  • the exchange means may also comprise a tube bundle.
  • the exchange means is formed as arranged in the housing module.
  • the exchanger means may also be formed integrally with the first and second wall sections in the same material. This leads to a particularly cost-effective production with a particularly small number of individual parts and thus a high level of operational safety.
  • the exchanger means preferably has a plurality of ribs which can be flowed around by the gas and formed in one piece with the first wall section, thereby increasing the contact surface between the first wall and gas in order to optimize the cooling performance.
  • the device is designed as a U-flow cooler.
  • it may alternatively be an I-flow cooler.

  • the means for deflection for example for bypass deflection, are integrated into the housing in a modular manner, which results in a compact design.
  • a valve member for adjustable regulation of a total size of the gas flow is arranged in the housing.
  • a deflection of the gas flow through the exchange means or a bypass path can also be adjusted via the valve member.
  • the first and / or the second wall section is a cooled wall section. This can be achieved in particular in that both the first wall section and the second wall section are arranged directly adjacent to the coolant, so that advantageously results in both a cooling of the first wall section and the second wall section.
  • the first wall section preferably practically completely, can be arranged inside the housing.
  • the second wall portion practically completely forms a housing outer wall of a housing part and / or a housing.

  • the second wall section has to be designed practically only in the first partial area provided in this development as a wall section adjoining the coolant.
  • measures for the design of the second wall section beyond the first partial area are omitted in order to form the second wall section as a coolant-adjacent wall section.
  • a section of the second wall section housing can also be arranged on the inside.
  • the housing has a further third wall section.

  • the third wall portion can thus be particularly easy to interpret in an advantageous manner.
  • the third wall section in a further, second subregion form a housing outer wall of a housing part and / or a housing. It has proved to be expedient that the second subregion is essentially limited to those regions of a housing part and / or of the housing which are in contact with comparatively cooler gas, in particular cooled and / or partially cooled gas. This applies in particular to regions which are arranged adjacent to the exchange means and / or deflection regions of a housing part and / or a housing.
