Specific Working

The engine cooling module consists of condenser, radiator and fan (CRFM), which has long been recognized as a main source of sound and vibration in the automotive industry. As the engine becomes increasingly compact and powerful, customers gradually have higher expectations for automobile NVH performance than ever before. Thus the reduction of noise and vibration induced by CRFM becomes critical, which can greatly influence overall NVH performance. Combined with experimental and numerical methods, this paper focuses on the identification and optimization of steering wheel (SW) vibration induced by CRFM for a vehicle with V6 engine while engine idling. The numerical model established in this paper, based on Matlab and taking chassis vibration into account, can predict and optimize the vibration of CRFM under specific working condition with the help of energy decoupling and Newmark-Beta methodology. The optimization design of CRFM mainly involves the stiffness, position and angle of isolators. The numerical simulation results are validated experimentally, which can help further design of CRFM.

Evaporative Cooling System

The evaporative cooling system concepts proposed over the past century for engine thermal management in automotive applications are examined and critically reviewed. The purposes of this review are to establish the evident system shortcomings and to identify the remaining research questions that need to be addressed to enable this important technology to be adopted by vehicle manufacturers. Initially, the benefits of the evaporative cooling systems are restated in terms of the improved engine efficiency, the reduced carbon dioxide emissions and the improved fuel economy. This is followed by a historical coverage of the proposed concepts dating back to 1918. Possible evaporative cooling concepts are then classified into four distinct classes and critically reviewed. This culminates in an assessment of the available evidence to establish the reasons why no system has yet been approved for serial production commercially. Then, by systematic examination of the critical areas in evaporative cooling systems for application to automotive engine cooling, the remaining research challenges are identified.

This paper deals with stator efficiency improvement meant for automotive engine cooling fan systems. A new rapid prototype of a long stator designed for a small diameter Valeo rotor (320 mm) has been manufactured and tested on a recently designed Valeo-LEMFI test rig. The following points are presented: • Overall performances of the 320 mm rotor alone. • Overall performances of the 320 mm rotor combined with the new long stator vanes: this study confirms the gain of efficiency foreseen previously with the simplified radial equilibrium code VENTAX. • Steady velocities measured 41 mm downstream of the stage configuration: These measurements obtained by using a 5-hole probe show high deflection carried out by the stators with long chord lengths. Comparisons with preliminary CFD simulations are also shown for both the overall performances and the local velocities.

Radial Equilibrium

This paper deals with stator efficiency improvement meant for automotive engine cooling fan systems. Four stators designed for a Valeo 380 mm rotor were manufactured and tested on a newly designed Valeo-Lemfi test rig. The following points are presented: • Overall performances of the 380 mm rotor. • Overall performances of the 380 mm rotor combined with a short chord stator. Inefficiency of such a design is shown: Slight deflection carried out by the stator is the cause of the slight gain of efficiency. • Overall performances of the 380 mm rotor combined to three long chord stators: this study confirms the gain of efficiency foreseen previously with the simplified radial equilibrium code VENTAX. • Steady velocities measured 33 mm downstream the various stage configurations: These measurements obtained by using a 5-holes probe show high deflection carried out by the long chord stators.
