Definitions

  • thermostat assembly More specifically, thermostat assembly with pressure balanced sleeve type valve which controls the circulation of the coolant fluid of the internal combustion engine.
  • thermostat assemblies are main control devices of the cooling circulation units which are used to control the engine temperature during the combustion. Coolant circulating the engine block and cylinder heads absorbs the heat caused by the combustion from the engine block and cylinder heads, this absorption causes an increase on the temperature of coolant. Regarding the temperature of the coolant, thermostat assemblies regulate the flow rates through the sub-circuit outlets (radiator and bypass outlets) to keep the temperature of the coolant among the desired range.
  • Required actuating force of poppet type valve thermostat assembly should be at least equal to hydraulic force applied by coolant on valve plate which is equal to coolant pressure multiplies by valve projection area. In order to achieve low pressure drops, projection area of the valve should be increased which will result with a significant increase of required actuating force on poppet type valve structure.
  • Required actuating force is created by wax based actuators or electro mechanical drives. Achieving high actuating force needs bigger actuators which will have a significant cost increase and loss of compactness of product.
  • slider valve thermostat assembly which is in fact a plate shaped valve which has the opening window or holes allowing the coolant pass through and which make a sliding movement on a seat created whether on the body or created by another seat structure. Even though this type allows bigger projection area of valve to achieve lower pressure drops with lower activation force, it is not a reliable and economical solution by reason of complex valve structure needs and wearing concern due to sliding under high hydraulic loads.
  • Sleeve type valve structure has pressure balanced feature which continuously has same cross section during opening closing movement of valve and which allows to increase the size of valve for achieving low pressure drop at high flow rates with low actuating force requirement with respect to poppet type structure.
  • known structure of sleeve type valve has high cost due to complexity of mechanism and a significant leakage amount through valve when it is closed since metal to metal contact is preferred due to long reliability expectation.
