Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Kühleranordnung bestehend aus je zwei Sammelkästen (5) aufweisenden Kühlern (1, 2, 3, 4), zur Kühlung verschiedener Fluide, deren in mindestens einer Reihe angeordnete, die Sammelkästen (5) verbindende Flachrohre quer zur Ventilatorachse (V) des im Inneren der Kühleranordnung angeordneten Radialventilators (7) verlaufen, mit einer Frontwand (F) und einer Rückwand (R) sowie mit Zu - und Ablauf (Z; A) und Zu - und Ablaufleitungen (L) für durch mindestens zwei Kühler strömendes gleiches Fluid, die an Sammelkästen (5) angeschlossen sind. Die Kühleranordnung ist für verschiedenartige und wirtschaftlich realisierbare Anschlußvarianten geeignet, weil erfindungsgemäß der eine Zu - oder Ablauf (Z; A) in einem Eckbereich (E) der Rückwand (R) und der andere Zu - oder Ablauf (Z; A) im dazu diagonalen Eckbereich (E) der Frontwand (F) angeordnet ist, wobei die Länge und der Querschnitt der Zu - und Ablaufleitungen (L) für jeden angeschlossenen Kühler etwa gleich ist und die Zu - und Ablaufleitungen (L) baukastenartig zusammensteckbar sind.

The invention relates to a cooler arrangement consisting of coolers (1, 2, 3, 4) each having two header boxes (5), for cooling different fluids, the flat tubes of which are arranged in at least one row and connect the header boxes (5) transversely to the fan axis (V). of the radial fan (7) arranged inside the cooler arrangement, with a front wall (F) and a rear wall (R) as well as with inlet and outlet (Z; A) and inlet and outlet lines (L) for the same flowing through at least two coolers Fluid, which are connected to collecting tanks (5). The cooler arrangement is suitable for different and economically feasible connection variants, because according to the invention one inlet or outlet (Z; A) in a corner area (E) of the rear wall (R) and the other inlet or outlet (Z; A) in the diagonal to it Corner area (E) of the front wall (F) is arranged, the length and cross section of the inlet and outlet lines (L) being approximately the same for each connected cooler and the inlet and outlet lines (L) being able to be plugged together in a modular manner.
