Definitions
- the invention relates to a cooling arrangement for a vehicle, wherein the arrangement comprises a cooler component and a casing wall for the vehicle which defines an intake of ambient air to said cooler component.
- the invention further relates to a vehicle comprising the cooling arrangement, especially a commercial vehicle such as a truck.
- the engine In a truck, the engine is positioned at a front region of the truck between the front wheels and normally below the operator compartment.
- the space between the most foremost point of the truck and the engine is densely packed with components such as coolers.
- the following cooler components are arranged between a vehicle grille and the engine: a condenser, a charge air cooler and a radiator.
- Further components, such as a fan, a fan shroud, a front closing cross member and a cab torsion bar are also normally arranged in the space between the most foremost point of the truck and the engine.
- US 2006/0231234 A1 discloses a cooler arrangement comprising a plurality of heat exchangers.
- a radiator, a charge air cooler and a condenser are arranged in series in the flow direction of the cooling air.
- Space utilization is improved by using a gradation whereby a portion of the height of the radiator and charge air cooler have similar depth dimensions different from the other cooler components.
- customers are desirous to optimize the space available for payload in a truck. In many countries, legal requirements restrict the length of a truck.
- optimizing payload space means to use as much of the vehicle length for storing payload by minimizing space encompassed by the cab, i.e. to make the cab as short as possible.
- Such optimization goal collides with the increasing required space for the cooling package in the cab.
- the object is achieved by means of a cooling arrangement for a vehicle, wherein the arrangement comprises a cooler component and a casing wall for the vehicle which defines an intake of ambient air to said cooler component, characterized in that said cooler component is arranged at said intake in such a way that a front surface of said cooler component is arranged substantially flush with the casing wall. Said front surface of said cooler component is preferably arranged substantially flush with an external surface of the casing wall. Further, said front surface of said cooler component is preferably arranged in parallel with the casing wall, i.e. in parallel with a plane defined by the portions of the casing wall which surrounds the air intake.
- casing wall defines a wall with the external surface facing outwards, i.e. exposed to the external environment, and an internal surface facing inwards, i.e. towards an engine of the vehicle.
- the casing wall forms an engine compartment limitation wall, which extends in a plane at right angles to the truck ' s longitudinal direction and which is arranged below a windscreen of the cab.
- a cooler component such as the condenser
- the condenser is of such a design that it in fact can withstand the impacts of objects, such as stones etc, which may reach the air intake during driving.
- the wall thickness of the tubes of the condenser is becoming increasingly larger in order for the tubes to comply with a larger internal pressure (and thereby an improved cooling performance).
- the cooler component forms at least part of the structure which today is the vehicle grille.
- said front surface of said cooler component is arranged within a distance of 60 mm, preferably 40 mm, from an external surface of the casing wall in a direction at right angles to a plane defining the casing wall.
- the external surface forms a surface of the casing wall facing away from the cooler component and an internal surface of the casing wall forms a surface facing the cooler component.
- the cooler component positioned in said intake is preferably configured for forming part of an air conditioning system of the vehicle.
- a vehicle grille is arranged in said cooling air intake and said front surface of said cooler component is integrated in the vehicle grille.
- the invention is not limited to that the cooler component replaces the vehicle grille, but a vehicle grille structure may still be present in the air intake.
- the cooling tubes of the cooler component may be arranged in parallel with elongated ribs of the vehicle grille and attached to the ribs.
- the vehicle grille provides a large air intake area in the front casing wall of a truck which is advantageous for efficiently cooling a medium by exchanging heat with the relative wind impinging on the grille.
- the available grille area is larger than the typical single heat exchanging surfaces of components in the cooling package.
- the same arrangement and design can be used in various sizes of cabs. It is also possible to share the grille area between two or more cooler components. Additionally, by integrating the surface portion in the grille it is possible to conduct various designs of the heat exchanging grille.
- the dimensions of said front surface of said cooler component in a plane are substantially the same as the dimensions of said cooling air intake in a plane in parallel to said casing wall.
- the dimensions of said front surface of said cooler component in a plane are designed to match the dimensions of said cooling air intake both with regard to shape and size.
- a projection of the boundaries of the cooler component lies within the boundaries of the air intake.
- said front surface of said cooler component defines a substantially rectangular shape.
- said cooler component comprises a tubular system, comprising a plurality of coolant tubes configured to convey a coolant and that a plurality of the tubes defines the front surface of said cooler component.
- said plurality of coolant tubes are arranged in thermal contact with a structure defining the vehicle grille.
- the coolant tubes are preferably arranged in parallel with each other in a plane.
- said cooler component comprises a stack of heat exchanging surfaces in an alternating arrangement with the coolant tubes and the coolant tubes are in thermal contact with the heat exchanging surfaces.
- a cooler component portion that forms the front surface can be formed as a honeycomb pattern.
- the tubes and heat exchanger fins may be made of aluminium, an aluminium containing alloy or another light metal or light metal alloy, for instance.
- the density of the pattern e.g. a honeycomb pattern or another desired pattern, can be chosen to comply with the cooling requirements of the surface portion.
- said coolant tubes are designed for a burst pressure of at least 3 MPa, preferably of at least 5 MPa. Such a pressure requires that the coolant tube walls are of considerable thickness, which in turn make the cooler component suitable for application in the air intake.
- the cooler component is formed by a condenser.
- the condenser has been identified as a cooler component particularly suitable for application in the air intake due to its robust design.
- the cooler component is rigidly attached to the casing wall.
- the cooler component may be fastened to the casing wall beside the air intake via a bolt connection.
- This design creates conditions for a very compact and space efficient arrangement.
- the routing of coolant conduits to the cooler component can be restricted to a cab of the vehicle and can allow for opening of a usual pivotable door (front hatch) of the cab.
- the cooling arrangement comprises a pivotable door, which comprises the cooling air intake and the cooler component is rigidly attached to the pivotable door.
- the cooler component may be pivotably arranged with regard to a casing wall part surrounding the pivotable door.
- the front surface of said cooler component is arranged within a distance of 100 mm from a most forward point of the vehicle in a direction at right angles to a plane defining the front casing wall.
- the most forward point of the vehicle represents the front point for measuring the vehicle length determined according to the European directive 97/27/EC.
- the European directive 97/27/EC of the European Parliament and of the council of 22 July 1997 relates to masses and dimensions of certain categories of motor vehicles and their trailers and amending Directive 70/156/EEC.
- the ISO standard ISO 612-1978 defines the length of a vehicle as the distance between two vertical planes to the longitudinal medial plane of the vehicle and touching the front and rear of the vehicle.
- vehicle length is a dimension which is measured according to ISO standard 612-1978, term No 6.1.
- vehicle length is a dimension which is measured according to ISO standard 612-1978, term No 6.1.
- the most forward point of the vehicle is the most forward point of the vehicle length without protruding objects mentioned above.

- the truck comprises a cab 20 in the form of a so-called forward control cab, which is arranged above a power source (normally diesel engine) of the truck.
- a power source normally diesel engine
- FIG. 1b shows a cut through a prior art cooling package
- Fig. 1c a shows a cut through an example embodiment of a cooling package in the cab 20 of Fig. 1a.
- a casing 12 has a front casing wall which defines an intake of cooling air to at least one cooler component 102, 104, 108, 110, 112, 120, wherein, as depicted in Fig. 1a and 1c, one of the cooler components 120 is arranged in said intake in such a way that a front surface 130a of the cooler component 120 is arranged substantially flush with the front casing wall 12a.
- the casing wall 12 surrounds an engine compartment comprising a cooling package 100 enclosing a multitude of cooler components 102, 104, 108, 110, 112, 120. Beneath the casing 12 of the cab 20 a front axle 16 is arranged. Further, the outer casing 12 of the cab 20 surrounds a passenger compartment above the engine compartment.
- the front casing wall 12a of the cab 20 is substantially parallel with a vertical plane and exhibits a so called most-forward point 10 (external surface) of the vehicle 90, from which the length of the vehicle 90 is measured.
- a vehicle grille 30 is arranged having an upper portion 32 located in a pivotable upper part 22 of the cab 20 and a lower portion 34 located in a lower, stationary part 24 of the cab.
- the upper portion 32 can be pivoted towards the front for giving access to e.g. an engine 114 and the cooling package 100.
- the vehicle grille 30 is placed within a small distance 50 from the most forward point 10 with respect to a longitudinal vehicle axis L.
- cooler unit 110 may be a fan
- cooler unit 120 may be a condenser of an air condition system
- cooler unit 112 may be a charge air cooler
- cooler unit 108 may be a radiator
- other cooler units 102, 104 may be other heat exchangers.
- the condenser 120 is mounted to the cooling package 100 in front of the charge air cooler 112.
- the condenser 120 may have a typical front face area of 28 dm 2 (FH), a depth of 19 mm and a total heat transfer area of the ambient fin of 6.7 m 2 .
- the condenser 120 is usually arranged as foremost component of the cooling package 100 directly behind the bumper 26 and the casing 12.
- the condenser 120 constitutes a heat exchanging device 132 (cooler component) which comprises surfaces provided for exchanging heat with the relative wind moving through the heat exchanging device 132.
- An embodiment example of a condenser for use in the cooling arrangement according to the invention will be described in more detail in Fig. 2.
- one of the heat exchanging devices 132 for instance the condenser 120, is arranged closely to the casing 12 and virtually flush with the front casing wall 12a within a small distance 50 from a most forward point of the casing, leaving a free space in the cooling package 100 which can be used to increase the volume of other components of the cooling package 100 and/or for shorten the length of the cooling package 100 and consequently the length of the cab 20.
- a surface portion 130 provided for exchanging heat of at least one cooler component 102, 104, 108, 110, 112, 120 of the cooling package 100 is arranged within a distance of 100mm, especially 80mm, preferably 60 mm and advantageously 40 mm, of the most-forward point 10.
- the condenser 120 can be integrated in the grille 30, particularly can constitute the grille 30 of the cab 20, preferably can cover a substantial part of the grille 30.
- Fig. 2 illustrates an example embodiment of a condenser 120 which can be integrated in the vehicle grille 30 according to Fig. 1a, 1c.
- the condenser 120 provides a multitude of rows 128 stacked one over the other of tubes 126 alternating with fins 124.
- the fins 124 constitute heat exchanging surfaces 130 which transfer heat from the tubes 126 to the air moving around the fins 124.
- the rows 128 are extending between tanks 122 which may contain a coolant. •
- the fins 124 can be made of moulded or extruded aluminium, for example in a honey comb pattern, to create a typical grille appearance.
- the pattern can have other designs and provides an additional degree of freedom of designing the grille 30.
- a honey comb pattern with dimensions 25 x 20 mm and a condenser depth of 30 mm would require a condenser 120 of dimensions 1 500 x 665 mm (1 m 2 ) for equal performance. More dense patterns would require smaller condenser area.
- the effective condenser area can be regulated by the density of the pattern of the fins 124.
- Fig. 3 depicts a front view of an embodiment of a vehicle cab 20 of a vehicle 90 which was shown in Fig. 1a as side view, with a condenser 120 integrated in the grille 30.
- the condenser can be integrated in the upper and/or lower part 32, 34 of the grille 30. If the upper part 32 of the grille 30 is used, the condenser 120 can be mounted on the cab 20.
- This has the advantage that both the condenser 120 and the evaporator (not shown) of the air condition system (AC system) are placed on the cab 20 and the connection between them can consist of non-flexible (rigid) pipes instead of flexible tubes. Flexible tubes are used when there is a movement between the condenser 120 and the evaporator, which may cause coolant leaking into the air. This is avoided by the pipes.
- the complete AC system can be mounted to the cab 20, which means that the AC routing would only be on the cab 20. Expediently, the routing allows for opening of the front hatch arranged in the casing 12.
- a more efficient cooling can be provided without moving the engine backwards and giving a possibility for shortening the length of the cab 20.
- Fig. 4a shows a schematic side view of the forward control cab 20, wherein the cooler component 120 is attached to a chassis (frame) 410 of the vehicle.
- the forward control cab is pivotably arranged in relation to the chassis and is shown in a first position in figure 4a, representing an operational position during driving of the truck.
- the casing wall 12a is arranged to define an engine compartment.
- the casing wall 12a is arranged at a front of the vehicle and the casing wall 12a extends substantially at right angles to a longitudinal direction of the vehicle.
- Figure 4b shows the forward control cab in a second, tilted position, representing a position for inspecting/servicing of the engine or other components in the engine compartment.
- the position of the cooler component 120 is not effected by the tilting of the cab since it is rigidly connected to the frame 410.
- Fig. 5a shows a schematic side view of the forward control cab 20, wherein the cooler component 120 is attached to the front casing wall 12a of the vehicle.
- the forward control cab is pivotably arranged in relation to the chassis and is shown in a first position in figure 5a, representing an operational position during driving of the truck.
