5 INTEGRATED COOLING CIRCUIT IN A HYBRID POWERTRAIN
* * *
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a cooling circuit for both an internal combustion engine and an electric motor-generator in a hybrid powertrain.
10 Background
An internal combustion engine (ICE), such as a modern multi-valve, high compression engine, can create NOx (Nitrogen Oxides) during the high temperature combustion process. In order to prevent the formation of NOx the internal combustion engine is provided with Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system. Usually, an engine recirculates 15 exhaust gas by piping it from the exhaust manifold to the intake manifold and a control valve within the circuit regulates and times the gas flow.
The EGR system is provided also with an EGR cooler used for cooling the exhaust gases and with an EGR cooler bypass to avoid overcooling.
20
A hybrid powertrain requires separate cooling circuits for both the engine and the electric motor. This means that the Motor Generator Unit (MGU), i.e. the unit including an electric motor/generator and its electronics, and the internal combustion engine require separate cooling circuits, due to a different operating temperature for the MGU and the 25 ICE.
Consequently, a cooling system for a hybrid powertrain has a high number of components, thus involving an increase in terms of system complexity, space required to house all the components of separate cooling circuits, weight and costs.
30
Moreover various EGR systems are affected by the so called fouling effect, that consists in ash deposits forming an insulating layer on the gas path of the EGR cooler in case of overcooling. Said fouling or insulating layer decreases the thermal efficiency and
2
increases the pressure drop in the EGR cooler with consequent reduction in efficiency of the engine and higher NOx emissions.
An object of an embodiment of the present invention is to solve the above mentioned 5 problems and to provide a cooling circuit for a hybrid powertrain having a reduced system complexity.
Another object of an embodiment of the present invention is to prevent the EGR cooler components being subjected to fouling effect.
10
Another object of an embodiment of the present invention is to provide a cooling circuit for a hybrid powertrain which reduces the cost of hybridization.
Another object of an embodiment of the present invention is to provide a cooling circuit 15 for a hybrid powertrain which allows to reduce the packaging and the number of the components.
A further object of an embodiment of the present invention is to provide a less costly cooling circuit for a hybrid powertrain with better function and durability.
20 Summary
These objects are achieved by means of an embodiment of the present invention, which relates to a cooling circuit for a hybrid powertrain, the hybrid powertrain having an internal combustion engine and a liquid cooled motor generator, the cooling circuit being configured for cooling both the internal combustion engine and the liquid cooled motor 25 generator, the cooling circuit comprising a radiator, an exhaust gas recirculation cooler, a cooling duct connected to the exhaust gas recirculation cooler for conveying cooling fluid from the radiator thereto and a heating duct, the heating duct branching from a first branching point adjacent to a cooling fluid port of the combustion engine to a second branching point of the cooling duct.
30
A single cooling circuit allows to avoid the use of a dedicated cooling circuit (pump, radiator, expansion tank and tubes) for the electric motor and its electronics.
The cooling duct is connected to the liquid cooled motor generator in order to receive the
3
cooled fluid directly from the radiator at a low temperature. Indeed, the cooling fluid at the outlet of the radiator would be at a low temperature (below 70°C) so as to fulfill the temperature requirements specification of the electric motor. Such low temperature of the cooling fluid at the outlet of the radiator is sufficient for the electric motor cooling 5 requirements but not for the EGR cooler, for which a cooling fluid temperature above 70°C would be better to reduce or prevent the fouling effect on its components.
A temperature controllable valve is provided at the second branching point, where the heating duct brings cooling fluid at high temperature from the engine in order to mix it 10 with cooling fluid at lower temperature coming from the output of the liquid cooled motor generator.
In this perspective, the heating duct connecting an outlet point of the combustion engine to an inlet point of the cooling duct provides a path for the high temperature cooling fluid 15 (at about 90 °C) coming from the internal combustion engine to reach the temperature controllable valve. Mixing of cooling fluid at high temperature (above 70 °C) with cooling fluid at low temperature (below 70°C) coming from the liquid cooled motor generator allows to properly adjust the cooling temperature of the EGR in order to prevent fouling on its components.
20
The cooling circuit according to an embodiment of the present invention further comprises a by-bass duct which branches from the second branching point for bypassing the EGR cooler. When cooling of the EGR is not required, as for example at the warm-up pf the ICE, this component can be temporarily excluded from the circulation of 25 the cooling fluid.
According to another embodiment of the invention, the temperature controllable valve is a 4-way valve. This allows to control the flows at different temperatures of the cooling fluid at the second branching point only, thus simplifying the architecture of the circuit 30 and its operation.
Moreover, an embodiment of the cooling circuit has an inlet of the liquid cooled motor generator which is directly connected to an outlet of the radiator. This allows to cool down efficiently the liquid cooled motor generator by the cooling fluid at very low
4
temperature (about 50 °C) coming directly from the radiator.
According to a further aspect of an embodiment of the present invention, the internal combustion engine is a diesel engine and the liquid cooled motor generator is a Belt 5 Alternator Starter (BAS).
Brief Description of the Drawings
Further advantages and features of an embodiment of the present invention will be more apparent from the description below, provided with reference to the accompanying 10 drawings, purely by way of a non-limiting example, wherein:
- Figure 1 is a simplified scheme of a cooling system for of a hybrid powertrain according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Detailed Description
15 Figure 1 shows a simplified scheme of a cooling system 1 for at least one exemplary embodiment of a hybrid powertrain having at least one liquid cooled motor generator unit 16 and an internal combustion engine (ICE) 110 with an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system. The EGR system includes an EGR cooler 310 to reduce the temperature of the exhaust gases in the EGR system.
20
In hybrid powertrains the liquid cooled motor generator 16 and its electronics, e.g. a Belt Alternator Starter, requires a specific cooling circuit due to the fact that the working temperatures at which they operate are different with respect to the internal combustion engine 110, thus involving the use of separate radiators.
25
As a matter of fact, the cooling system designed to cool down the liquid cooled motor generator 16 and its electronics must ensure a temperature below 70°C, preferably between 50° C and 70° C, in order to fulfill the specification requirements of the electric motor. This means that hybrid architectures require two separate circuits: a high 30 temperature cooling circuit (about 90° C) for the engine 110 and a low temperature cooling circuit (50°C - 70°C ) for the liquid cooled motor generator unit 16.
In the embodiments according to the invention, a less complexity of a hybrid powertrain is achieved by integrating the cooling circuit for the liquid cooled motor generator 16 with
5
the cooling circuit of the internal combustion engine 110, thus creating a single circuit for cooling both the internal combustion engine 110 and the liquid cooled motor generator 16.
5 In particular the cooling circuit for both the internal combustion 110 engine and the liquid cooled motor generator 16 includes a radiator 15, an exhaust gas recirculation cooler 310, a cooling duct 41 connected to the exhaust gas recirculation cooler 310 and a heating duct 40. The cooling duct 41 conveys cooling fluid from the radiator 15 to the exhaust gas recirculation cooler 310 while the heating duct 40 branches from an outlet 10 point A of the combustion engine 110 to an inlet point B of the cooling duct 41.
The internal combustion engine 110 is connected to the inlet of the radiator 15 through a high temperature (about 90°C) duct 20, while the outlet of the radiator 15 is connected to a surge tank 11 through a low temperature (50°C - 70°C) duct 30, indicated in dashed 15 lines. A thermostat 12 is positioned on a duct 50 connecting the surge tank 11 and the internal combustion engine 110.
The inlet 76 of the liquid cooled motor generator 16 is connected to the low temperature duct 30 branching the surge tank 11 and the outlet 75 of the radiator 15. The outlet of 20 the liquid cooled motor generator 16 is connected to the EGR cooler 310 and the cooler bypass 310a by means of the cooling duct 41.
The heating duct 40 provides a path for the high temperature cooling fluid coming from a branching point A adjacent to a cooling fluid port of the internal combustion engine 110 25 to reach the branching point B on the cooling duct 41, where a temperature controllable valve 320 is positioned, thus creating a source of cooling fluid at high temperature to be mixed with the cooling fluid at low temperature (below 70°C) coming from the radiator 15. The mixed cooling fluid, that would be then at temperature above 70°C, is then conveyed to the EGR cooler 310 when needed. As a matter of fact, the temperature 30 controllable valve 320, adjusted by means of a temperature controller 330, is placed on the cooling duct 41 in order to control the temperature of the mixed cooling fluid fed to the EGR cooler 310, the mixed cooling fluid being the mixture of the two incoming flows at different temperature (the high temperature fluid coming from the internal combustion engine 110 and the low temperature fluid coming from the front radiator 15).
6
By controlling the fluid temperature at the inlet of the EGR cooler 310 the fouling effect of the EGR cooler components can be prevented.
5 An electric pump 14 follows the EGR cooler 310 on the cooling duct 41, in order to create a fluid flow when the pump 13 of the internal combustion engine is off, as for example during warm-up of the engine.
The front radiator 15 has a heat rejection potential which is grater than that necessary to cool the ICE only. The exceeding heat rejection is used to enhance the temperature difference within the radiator from about 90° C to less than 70° C, thus increasing the efficiency and guaranteeing low temperatures (50°C - 70°C) at the radiator outlet. A low temperature fluid at its outlet is very convenient since the electric motor generator 16 and its electronics can be positioned directly in the cooling loop at low temperature.
The adoption of a heating duct 40 connecting an outlet point A adjacent to a cooling fluid port of the internal combustion engine 110 to an inlet point B, where a temperature controllable valve 320 is positioned, of the cooling duct 41 has several advantages: - easier architecture for a permanent low temperature EGR since no additional EGR cooler and dedicated radiator are needed;
control of the cooling fluid temperature at the inlet of the EGR cooler, thus preventing the components being subjected to fouling;
reduction of the engine NOx emission.
25 The single cooling circuit as disclosed above allows to avoid the use of a dedicated cooling circuit (pump, radiator, expansion tank and tubes) for the electric motor unit and electronics, avoiding at the same time fouling effects on the EGR cooler, thus lowering the costs of hybridization, enhancing the packaging and the number of components.
