Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for producing a conveyor module with an electric PTC heater, which can be installed in a tank.
- the delivery module is particularly suitable for tanks in which a liquid additive (in particular urea-water solution) is stored.
- Electric heaters have the advantage that they can provide a large amount of heating energy even very shortly after the start of operation of a motor vehicle.
- heated coolant and exhaust heat are available only after a longer period of operation of an internal combustion engine.
- electrical energy must be able to be supplied in sufficient quantity from an energy store (for example an accumulator or a capacitor).
- an energy store for example an accumulator or a capacitor.
- the possibility of providing electrical energy in a motor vehicle is limited on the one hand with regard to the total amount of energy available. For example, a total of only a certain amount of energy (for example, 1 or 2 megajoules) can be made available for heating.
- the liquid additive can be chemically influenced by excessive heating.
- the urea-water solution is chemically converted to ammonia or unwanted intermediates when a limit temperature is exceeded. This should not happen in the delivery module and tank because the ammonia could attack and damage components of the delivery unit.
- Heaters that are automatically deactivated when a maximum temperature is exceeded are therefore particularly advantageous.
- These are electrical heating elements which have a particular dependence of the electrical resistance on the temperature. In the case of various PTC heating elements, there is in each case a characteristic and / or material-specific switching temperature at which the electrical resistance increases abruptly.
- a material that has the described PTC properties and make up most of the PTC heating elements is, for example, barium titanate (BaTiCte). It should be noted, however, that the available large number of different PTC materials that can be used here, are also different costs.
- a method for producing a conveyor module with an electrical PCT heater and a correspondingly produced conveyor module are to be specified, which allow a particularly advantageous operation of the heating system with the lowest possible power loss and the most uniform possible heating power.
- the invention relates to a method for producing a conveyor module with an electric PTC heater for installation in a tank for storing a liquid additive, comprising at least the following steps:
- the delivery module preferably has a housing in which (active or controllable) components for conveying the liquid additive are located, and which can be inserted into an opening in the bottom of a tank.
- the components for conveying the liquid additive comprise, in particular, a pump with which a delivery of the liquid additive and optionally also a metering of the liquid additive can take place.
- a line for the liquid additive passes through the conveyor module. On / in this line, the pump is arranged.
- the liquid additive is removed from the tank by the pump at a point of suction and provided at a supply port of the delivery module.
- the structure of the conveyor module should not be specified here in all details, because the expert can make numerous adjustments here according to the structure of the tank and / or the delivery rates of the delivery module. Later, however, two special embodiments of a conveyor module will be presented by way of example, which can be produced by the described method.
- the maximum electrical power (Wmax) which is determined in step a) can be defined, for example, by the cross-section of an electrical supply line via which the delivery module is supplied with electrical energy.
- An available supply voltage in a motor vehicle is, for example, 12 V [volts], 24 V or even 48 V. Depending on the cross section of the electrical supply line, the available supply voltage results in a maximum electrical power which can be transmitted via the supply line. It is also possible that the maximum electric power is determined by a specification of the motor vehicle manufacturer. Also, the maximum electric power can be determined by a power supply in a motor vehicle (for example, an accumulator and / or an alternator of the Motor vehicle) only a limited electrical power can provide.
- a motor vehicle regularly has, in addition to the delivery module for the liquid additive, further electrical consumers which optionally limit the available maximum electrical power for the heating at the time of commissioning of the delivery module or its heating.
- the method is particularly advantageous when the maximum electrical power for step a) is set to a value between 100 watts and 200 watts, in particular to a value between 110 watts and 130 watts, and very particularly preferably to (about) 120 watts ,
- a maximum electrical power is to be considered, which is permanently provided to the conveyor unit and retrieved by the conveyor unit during operation of the conveyor unit, ie at least for a predetermined time interval of, for example, at least 5 minutes or even at least 10 minutes.
- electrical services that the delivery unit retrieves for very short time intervals immediately after the electrical PTC heater has been switched on.
- Switching on the electric PTC heater may result in short term inrush currents (peak currents) that may cause the conveyor unit to exceed 250 watts, in particular, for very short time intervals of, for example, less than 2 minutes, or even less than 1 minute even gets more than 350 watts.
- peak currents short term inrush currents
- This electrical power can usually be made available in a motor vehicle for a delivery module for liquid additive, without any impairment of the operation of the other components of the motor vehicle occurs.
- a thermal conductivity of the delivery module from a location of the electric PTC heater is detected in the tank.
- the (specified) location ultimately also indicates the (actual or later) position within the conveyor module on which the electric PTC heater is mounted.
- the thermal conductivity is Usually defined as the quotient of the power and the temperature (W / Kelvin).
- the thermal conductivity indicates how much heat energy is transferred from the place of heating into the tank when there is a temperature difference of 1 K between the place of heating and the tank. As the temperature differential between the location of the heater and the tank increases, the amount of heat transferred increases proportionally.
- the thermal conductivity depends on the construction (material, arrangement, etc.) of the conveyor module.
- the thermal conductivity in particular the distance from the location to the interior of the tank and the materials used between the location and the interior of the tank (in particular the material of the housing of the conveyor module) are relevant. It is generally unproblematic for the person skilled in the art (possibly using conventional calculation aids), starting from a concrete construction of the delivery module and the desired location of installation for the heater, to determine the amount of the corresponding thermal conductivity towards the interior of the tank.
- the method is particularly advantageous when the thermal conductivity is determined in step b) with a finite element simulation of the conveyor module.
- a finite element simulation FEM simulation
- the thermal behavior of the materials of the conveyor module and in particular the material of the housing of the conveyor module and all components and components within the housing of the conveyor module, which between the location of the heater and the tank or the interior of the tank are simulated.
- a model of the conveyor module is used, with the heat conductivities of the housing and the components and components mentioned (individually) being deposited.
- the finite element simulation can be performed with a simplified two-dimensional model of the structure of the conveyor module.
- a two-dimensional model for example, from a cross section through the conveyor module consist.
- a two-dimensional model makes sense if the delivery module is at least approximately symmetrical, because only then can the values for the thermal conductivity determined on a two-dimensional model make a realistic assessment of the actual thermal conductivity in the third dimension possible. It is therefore particularly preferred that a three-dimensional finite element simulation is carried out, in which the model used for the finite element simulation corresponds to the actual structure of the conveyor module and also takes into account three-dimensional peculiarities which are distinguished by a (possibly symmetrical) The basic form of the conveyor module deviate.
- the method is advantageous if the thermal conductivity (CC module ) in
- Step b) is determined with an experiment in which a first temperature at the PTC heater and a second temperature in the tank are set in the tank and an amount of heat flowing from the PTC heater into the tank is determined Thermal conductivity is calculated from the difference of the first temperature and the second temperature and the amount of heat.
- the fixing of the first temperature and the second temperature can be effected, for example, by arranging in each case a heat exchanger which adjusts a specific temperature and this temperature on a surface of the conveyor module which is in communication with the tank and at the location of the PTC heater regardless of the amount of heat that is supplied or removed via the respective heat exchanger in order to maintain the temperature.
- a heat exchanger may for example be a liquid heat exchanger through which a large amount of liquid flows, which has exactly the first temperature and the second temperature.
- the amount of heat flowing between the location of the PTC heater and the tank due to the difference between the first temperature and the second temperature may be determined by sensors on the delivery module.
- the amount of heat is determined by an energy balance at the respective heat exchangers.
- this only applies if no power loss occurs.
- power losses may be taken into account, if appropriate, by a comparison of the amount of heat supplied or removed at the first heat exchanger and the amount of heat removed or supplied at the second heat exchanger.
- thermal conductivity is advantageous because no expensive FEM model needs to be created to calculate the thermal conductivity.
- FEM model needs to be created to calculate the thermal conductivity.
- this approach even with particularly complex designs of a delivery module, it is possible to determine the actual thermal conductivity relatively accurately.
- a switching temperature (Tschalt) of the PTC heater is calculated from the maximum electrical power and the thermal conductivity. This calculation can be done, for example, with a mathematical formula that represents the relationship between the switching temperature, the electrical power and the thermal conductivity.
- the method is particularly advantageous if, in step c), a maximum temperature (Tmax, HWL) is taken into account which may occur in the tank without the liquid additive changing chemically. This maximum temperature is preferably between 50 ° C and 90 ° C [degrees Celsius], preferably between 70 ° C and 80 ° C. By taking this maximum temperature into consideration in step c), the liquid additive in the tank can be prevented from being chemically converted by the use of the PTC heater.
- a minimum temperature (T min, HWL) is assumed that can occur in the tank, the minimum temperature being less than or equal to -11 ° C. From the minimum temperature usually depends on the maximum possible temperature difference between the location of the PTC heater or the PTC heater and the tank.
- the minimum temperature may for example be determined by the lowest temperature that may occur in the environment of a motor vehicle and / or to which the liquid additive in the tank may theoretically be subcooled when frozen. This minimum temperature may vary by region, for example significantly lower in northern countries such as Sweden or Norway than in southern countries such as Spain or Italy.
- the minimum temperature is for example between -20 ° C and -50 ° C.
- the minimum temperature can be used as the lower limit temperature of a working range of the PTC element.
- At least one PTC material based on barium titanate is mounted in step d).
- Barium titanate (BaTiCte) is a mixed oxide of barium and titanium. At about 120 ° C, a phase change of the barium titanate takes place, which leads to a sudden increase in the electrical resistance. This effect can be used as switching temperature. By different material additives, the desired switching temperature of the PTC material to the calculated in step c) switching temperature may still be adjusted exactly.
- Barium titanate-based PTC material can be provided as a mixture of barium carbonate and titanium oxide. Usually, a powdery mixture of Barium carbonate and titanium oxide sintered at high temperatures. This produces the barium titanate. Material additives can be added to the powdery mixture. Due to the ratio of barium carbonate and titanium oxide in the powdery mixture and the additional material additives, the electrical properties and in particular the switching temperature of the PTC material can be adjusted.
- a PTC material is mounted which has a substantially constant electrical resistance in the region between the switching temperature and a lower limit temperature.
- the electrical resistance of the PTC material varies within a working temperature range between the lower limit temperature and the switching temperature by less than 30 percent, preferably even less than 20 percent, and more preferably less than 10 percent. This makes it possible for the heating power absorbed by the PTC element to be substantially constant over the entire operating temperature range, without the need for additional measures for influencing the heating power. For example, an additional control resistor for controlling the PTC heating can be omitted.
- a plurality of PTC heaters is mounted at a plurality of (predetermined) locations, with PTC heaters being suitably provided in accordance with their switching temperature. Accordingly, the plurality of PTC heaters may have the same and / or different switching temperatures, in particular with the aim of the fastest possible heating of the in-tank (frozen) additive.
- a conveyor module for installation in a tank which was prepared according to a described method, wherein the conveyor module has a housing which can be inserted into the bottom of the tank, and wherein the housing has a first interior of the conveyor module from a second interior of the Tanks disconnects and the electric PTC heater in the first Interior of the conveyor module is arranged and the switching temperature of the electrical PTC heater between 80 ° C and 150 ° C.
- the delivery module if it has a heat dissipation structure, which is arranged in the first interior of the housing and is adapted to transfer heat from the PTC heater to the housing.
- the housing of such a conveyor module is preferably formed (predominantly) with plastic.
- the heat distribution structure can be made of aluminum, for example.
- the thermal conductivity of the PTC heater in the tank then depends largely on the housing and in particular on the shape of the housing, the (wall) thickness of the housing and the material of the housing. In particular, a uniform and / or targeted distribution of the heat within the first interior of the housing is achieved by the heat distribution structure.
- a housing which can be inserted into the bottom of a tank, wherein the electric PTC heater is arranged in a hood, which housing surrounds, and the switching temperature of the PTC heater between 50 ° C and 90 ° C, preferably between 70 ° C and 80 ° C, is located.
- the switching temperature is selected so that the outside of the hood a predetermined maximum temperature between 50 ° C and 90 ° C, in particular between 70 ° C and 80 ° C is applied.
- a hood is in particular bell-shaped.
- the hood surrounds the housing only in the areas in which the housing is in contact with a second interior of the tank.
- the hood is preferably (predominantly) made of a plastic material.
- the location of the PTC heater is in / on the hood.
- the at least one PTC heating element may be cast into the hood and / or injected. It is also possible that heat distribution structures are provided in the hood, which have a very good thermal conductivity and with In contact with the location of the PTC heater to distribute the heat of the PTC heater in the bell.

- FIG. 2 shows a PTC curve 18 plotted in a diagram on a resistance axis 16 over the temperature axis 17. It can be seen from the PTC curve 18 that at low temperatures the electrical resistance applied to the resistance axis 16 is relatively low. At a switching temperature 4, the electrical resistance according to the PTC curve 18 abruptly increases to a high value. Therefore, from reaching the switching temperature 4, the electric current flowing through a PTC heater abruptly decreases. It can also be seen a lower limit temperature 22 for the operation of a conveyor module. Between the lower limit temperature 22 and the switching temperature 4 is a working temperature range 23.
- FIGS. 3 and 4 each show a tank 3 in which a delivery module 2 is inserted.
