[0021] The above is the core idea of the present application, and the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0022] The cooling system 01 can include a controller 06, an oil circuit s1, a coolant circuit s2, and a cooling water circuit s3. The oil circuit s1 forms a circulating path of the oil for cooling and cooling the test object by the oil; the coolant circuit s2 forms a circulating path of the coolant, and the heat absorbed by the oil from the test object is transferred out by heat exchange between the oil circuit s1 and the coolant circuit s2 through the first heat exchanger 02; and the cooling water circuit s3 forms a circulating path of the cooling water, and the heat absorbed by the coolant from the oil is further transferred out by heat exchange between the coolant circuit s2 and the cooling water circuit s3 through the second heat exchanger 03. The coolant is a cooling medium, which can be a commonly used cooling medium such as oil or water, and the specific material is not limited in the embodiment. The controller 06 can monitor or control the working state of the oil circuit s1, the coolant circuit s2, and the cooling water circuit s3 to realize temperature control of the test object. In the embodiment, the test object can be applied to test scenes that require accurate control of cooling temperature and flow, such as equipment testing in the fields of aviation, automobile, and electronics.

[0023] Specifically, the oil circuit s1 includes a first oil pump 11, a first oil tank 12, and a second oil pump 13 connected in sequence through pipelines. The first oil pump 11 is used as an oil inlet pump to pump the oil into the oil inlet 101 of the test object 10, and the first heat exchanger 02 is arranged between the first oil pump 11 and the oil inlet 101. The oil is cooled in the first flow passage of the first heat exchanger 02 and then enters the oil inlet 101 of the test object 10. After absorbing the heat generated by the test object 10, the oil is pumped out of the oil outlet 102 of the test object 10 by the second oil pump 13. The second oil pump 13 is used as an oil return pump to pump the oil out of the test object 10 to the first oil tank 12. The first oil tank 12 stores the oil to meet the needs of normal operation of the system, and the user can add and replace the oil through the first oil tank 12. Thereafter, because the temperature of the oil pumped out of the test object 10 is increased, the first oil pump 11 can continue to transmit the oil with increased temperature to the first flow passage of the first heat exchanger 02 for cooling treatment. The first heat exchanger 02 is an oil cooler, which includes a first flow passage for the oil and a second flow passage for the coolant. The first heat exchanger 02 can transfer the heat absorbed by the oil in the test object to the coolant.

[0024] The coolant circuit s2 includes a circulating pump 15, and the second flow passage of the first heat exchanger 02, the circulating pump 15, and the third flow passage of the second heat exchanger 03 are connected in sequence through pipelines to form a circulating path of the coolant. The second heat exchanger 03 is a water-cooled heat exchanger, which includes a third flow passage for the coolant and a fourth flow passage for the cooling water. The circulating pump 15 meets the heat exchange needs between the oil cooler and the water-cooled heat exchanger.

[0025] The cooling water circuit S3 comprises the electrically-controlled two-way valve 16, the cooling water inlet 04, the electrically-controlled two-way valve 16, the fourth flow channel of the second heat exchanger 03, and the cooling water outlet 05, which are sequentially connected by pipes to form a cooling water circulation passage. The controller 06 is electrically connected with the electrically-controlled two-way valve 16, so that the controller 06 can adjust the opening degree of the electrically-controlled two-way valve 16, thereby adjusting the flow rate of the cooling water entering the water-cooled heat exchanger, which can be referred to as the first flow rate in the embodiment. For example, the greater the first flow rate of the cooling water entering the second heat exchanger 03, the better the heat exchange effect; and the smaller the first flow rate of the cooling water entering the second heat exchanger 03, the worse the heat exchange effect. In addition, it should be noted that the controller 06 is also electrically connected with the first temperature sensor 14, which is arranged on the pipe between the first flow channel and the oil inlet 101. When the first temperature sensor 14 measures that the actual oil inlet temperature (the first temperature) of the oil inlet 101 is higher than the set temperature range, the conduction opening degree of the electrically-controlled two-way valve 16 is increased, so that the cooling water entering the water-cooled radiator (the second heat exchanger 03) is increased; the heat absorbed by the cooling water in the water-cooled radiator is increased, the heat absorbed by the heat transfer medium by the cooling water is increased, and the temperature of the heat transfer medium output from the water-cooled radiator is reduced; the heat absorbed by the heat transfer medium in the oil cooler (the first heat exchanger 02) is increased, the heat absorbed by the oil by the heat transfer medium is increased, and the oil inlet temperature of the oil inlet 101 is reduced. In the embodiment, the conduction opening degree of the electrically-controlled two-way valve 16 can be continuously adjusted according to the set temperature range of the first temperature until the actual oil inlet temperature meets the set temperature range. When the first temperature sensor 14 measures that the actual oil inlet temperature (the first temperature) of the oil inlet 101 is lower than the set temperature range, the conduction opening degree of the electrically-controlled two-way valve 16 is reduced, so that the cooling water entering the water-cooled radiator (the second heat exchanger 03) is reduced; the heat absorbed by the cooling water in the water-cooled radiator is reduced, the heat absorbed by the heat transfer medium by the cooling water is reduced, and the temperature of the heat transfer medium output from the water-cooled radiator is increased; the heat absorbed by the heat transfer medium in the oil cooler (the first heat exchanger 02) is reduced, the heat absorbed by the oil by the heat transfer medium is reduced, and the oil inlet temperature of the oil inlet 101 is increased. In the embodiment, the conduction opening degree of the electrically-controlled two-way valve 16 can be continuously adjusted according to the set temperature range of the first temperature until the actual oil inlet temperature meets the set temperature range. The above-mentioned first temperature adjustment method realizes automatic and accurate control of the first temperature of the pump-in oil of the test object, thereby being capable of accurately controlling the temperature of the test object and meeting the working environment or test working condition of the test object, and improving the test effect or working effect of the test object.

[0026] Figure 2Another structural schematic diagram of the cooling system provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown in the figure. Optionally, the lubricating oil circuit s1 can further include a first electromagnetic valve 17 and a second electromagnetic valve 18; the controller 06 is electrically connected to the first electromagnetic valve 17 and the second electromagnetic valve 18 respectively; a first end of the first electromagnetic valve 17 is in communication with one end of the second oil pump 13 close to the oil outlet 102; a second end of the first electromagnetic valve 17 is in communication with one end of the first flow channel close to the first oil pump 11; and the second electromagnetic valve 18 is arranged between the first oil tank 12 and the second oil pump 13. The embodiment can control the conduction and shutdown of the first electromagnetic valve 17 and the second electromagnetic valve 18, and control the cooling system in different working modes. The cooling system provided by the embodiment is suitable for testing various working modes of the test object, and is especially suitable for testing devices in fields such as aviation, automobiles and electronics, which require precise control of cooling temperature and flow. Moreover, the controller 06 can control the conduction and shutdown of the first electromagnetic valve 17 and the second electromagnetic valve 18, so as to realize automatic switching of the cooling system in multiple working modes. For example, for the test object with and without an oil pump, different lubricating oil circuits are needed in the cooling process, so the adaptability of different types of test objects in the prior art is poor. The embodiment can provide different lubricating oil circuits for different types of test objects by controlling the conduction and shutdown of the first electromagnetic valve 17 and the second electromagnetic valve 18, so as to improve the compatibility of the cooling system of the embodiment for different types of test objects while ensuring the temperature regulation accuracy.

[0027] Specifically, referring to Figure 2 Optionally, the cooling system can be configured to: in a first working mode, the controller 06 controls the first electromagnetic valve 17 and the second electromagnetic valve 18 to be off, and controls the first oil pump 11 to be started to inject lubricating oil of a set flow to the test object 10; in a second working mode, the controller 06 controls the first electromagnetic valve 17 to be off, the second electromagnetic valve 18 and the electrically-controlled two-way valve 16 to be on, and controls the first oil pump 11, the second oil pump 13 and the circulating pump 15 to be started to regulate the first temperature of the first test object; the first test object is the test object 10 without an oil pump; in a third working mode, the controller 06 controls the first electromagnetic valve 17 and the electrically-controlled two-way valve 16 to be on, the second electromagnetic valve 18 to be off, and controls the circulating pump 15 to be started to regulate the first temperature of the second test object; the second test object is the test object 10 with an oil pump.

[0028] The cooling system in the embodiment can form a first working mode, a second working mode and a third working mode respectively. Among them, the first working mode is an oil injection mode for the test product 10, the controller 06 controls the first electromagnetic valve 17 and the second electromagnetic valve 18 to be closed, then the lubricating oil in the first oil tank 12 enters the oil inlet 101 of the test product 10 through the first oil pump 11 and the first flow channel of the first heat exchanger 02 in turn, so that the cooling system in the embodiment can be reused as an oil injection device for the test product, and a flow sensor 19 can be arranged near the oil inlet 101 of the test product 10 to inject lubricating oil with a set flow according to the demand of the test product, thereby further improving the compatibility of the cooling system; the second working mode is to cool the first test product, the first test product is a test product 10 without a self-provided oil pump, then the controller 06 controls the first electromagnetic valve 17 to be closed, the second electromagnetic valve 18 and the electrically controlled two-way valve 16 to be turned on, the lubricating oil in the lubricating oil circuit s1 enters the oil outlet 102 of the first test product, the second oil pump 13, the second electromagnetic valve 18, the first oil tank 12, the first oil pump 11, the first flow channel of the first heat exchanger and the oil inlet 101 of the first test product in turn to form a lubricating oil circulation path, in addition, the refrigerant circuit s2 and the cooling water circuit s3 regulate the temperature of the lubricating oil; the third working mode is to cool the second test product, the second test product is a test product 10 with a self-provided oil pump, then the controller 06 controls the first electromagnetic valve 17 and the electrically controlled two-way valve 16 to be turned on, and the second electromagnetic valve 18 to be closed, the lubricating oil in the lubricating oil circuit s1 enters the oil outlet 102 of the first test product, the first electromagnetic valve 17, the first flow channel of the first heat exchanger and the oil inlet 101 of the first test product in turn to form a lubricating oil circulation path, that is, the lubricating oil provided by the second test product itself forms a circulation, and the self-provided lubricating oil is temperature-regulated by the refrigerant circuit s2 and the cooling water circuit s3. It should be noted that, as shown in Figure 2 the second working mode and the third working mode differ in that the second working mode controls the lubricating oil in the first oil tank 12 to form a circulation, and the third working mode controls the lubricating oil inside the test product with a self-provided oil pump to form a circulation outside and be temperature-regulated. The above-mentioned multiple working modes can make the cooling system in the embodiment applied to more scenes and improve the adaptability of the cooling system. The working mode limitation of the existing cooling system is solved, and the problem that it is difficult to accurately meet the cooling demand of different test products and test working conditions is solved.

[0029] With reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2Optionally, the coolant circuit s2 can further comprise a second oil tank 25 and a pipeline electric heater 26. The second oil tank 25 is used to supplement or replace the coolant of the coolant circuit s2. Optionally, the second oil tank 25 can be further provided with a quick plug oil supplement connector 251 for supplementing the coolant through the quick plug oil supplement connector 251. In addition, the second oil tank 25 can be further provided with a liquid level switch 252 capable of sending a liquid supplement prompt when the liquid level is below a certain scale. The pipeline electric heater 26 is used to raise the temperature of the coolant. It should be noted that when the oil temperature is low and does not meet the working or testing requirements of the test object, the controller 06 can control the pipeline electric heater 26 to heat and raise the temperature of the coolant, so as to raise the temperature of the oil through the first heat exchanger 02. The design of the pipeline electric heater 26 in this embodiment makes the cooling system not only capable of lowering the temperature of the oil, but also capable of raising the temperature of the oil, realizes a wider range of temperature adjustment, and improves the applicability of the cooling system.

[0030] With reference to the foregoing Figure 2 Optionally, the oil circuit s1 can further comprise a first check valve 20 and a second check valve 21. The first check valve 20 is arranged on the pipeline between the first oil pump 11 and the first flow channel. The second check valve 21 is arranged on the pipeline between the first electromagnetic valve 17 and the first flow channel. The first check valve 20 is arranged in the first working mode and the second working mode in the circulation path of the oil, so as to ensure that the oil flows from the first oil pump 11 to the first flow channel. The second check valve 21 is arranged in the circulation path of the oil in the third working mode, so as to ensure that the oil flows from the first electromagnetic valve 17 to the first flow channel. The first check valve 20 and the second check valve 21 effectively prevent the backflow of the oil, and further improve the reliability of the cooling system.

[0031] With reference to the foregoing Figure 1 And Figure 2 Optionally, the oil circuit s1 can further comprise a first quick plug connector 271 and a second quick plug connector 272. The oil circuit s1 is connected to the oil inlet 101 through the first quick plug connector 271. The oil circuit s1 is connected to the oil outlet 102 through the second quick plug connector 272. In this embodiment, the oil circuit s1 establishes a communication path with the test object through the first quick plug connector 271 and the second quick plug connector 272, respectively, thereby improving the convenience of establishing the communication path. In addition, different types of test objects are provided with quick plug connectors of the same specification. Therefore, the cooling system in this embodiment can be connected to different types of test objects through the quick plug connectors, so as to improve the working efficiency of the cooling system and further enhance the compatibility of the cooling system.

[0032] With reference to the foregoing Figure 1 And Figure 2Optionally, the lubricating oil circuit s1 can further comprise a flow sensor 19. The flow sensor 19 is arranged on the pipeline between the first flow channel and the oil inlet 101, and is configured to detect the second flow of the lubricating oil input into the oil inlet 101. The flow sensor 19 can be electrically connected to the controller 06. When the flow of the lubricating oil pumped into the oil inlet 101 needs to be controlled, the controller 06 can control the pump speed of the first oil pump 11 or the second oil pump 13 according to the second flow output by the flow sensor 19, so as to further improve the accuracy of the lubricating oil flow pumped into the cooling system.

[0033] With reference to the foregoing Figure 1 and Figure 2 Optionally, the lubricating oil circuit s1 can further comprise a second temperature sensor 22, a first pressure sensor 231, a second pressure sensor 232, a first filter 241 and a second filter 242. The first pressure sensor 231 and the first filter 241 are arranged on the pipeline between the first flow channel and the oil inlet 101. The second temperature sensor 22, the second pressure sensor 232 and the second filter 242 are arranged on the pipeline between the oil outlet 102 and the second oil pump 13. The second temperature sensor 22 is configured to measure the temperature of the lubricating oil pumped out of the cooling system. The first pressure sensor 231 is configured to measure the pipeline pressure of the oil inlet 101. The second pressure sensor 232 is configured to measure the pipeline pressure of the oil outlet 102. The first filter 241 and the second filter 242 are configured to filter the contaminants in the pipeline, so as to prevent the contaminants from entering the cooling system and the cooling system. The above-mentioned components work together to ensure the normal operation of the cooling system. It should be noted that each device arranged in the embodiment can be electrically connected to the controller 06, so that the controller 06 can control each device to perform each operation and detect each data of the cooling system, so as to improve the automation degree of the cooling system. The embodiment can have an intelligent control system, which is equipped with a plurality of high-precision sensors and can monitor the key parameters such as the temperature, flow and pressure of the cooling system in real time. Based on the monitoring data, the control system can automatically realize a plurality of working modes and accurately adjust the temperature.

[0034] Based on the same concept, the embodiment of the present application further provides a control method of a cooling system. Figure 3 The flow chart of the control method of the cooling system provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown in Figure 3 The method of the embodiment comprises the following steps:

[0035] In step S110, if the first temperature is greater than the set temperature range, the controller controls the opening degree of the electrically-controlled two-way valve to increase, so as to increase the heat absorbed by the cooling water from the refrigerant. The heat absorbed by the refrigerant from the lubricating oil increases, and the first temperature transmitted to the controller by the first temperature sensor decreases to the set temperature range.

[0036] If the first temperature is less than the set temperature range, the controller controls the opening of the electrically-controlled two-way valve to decrease, so as to decrease the heat absorbed by the cooling water from the coolant; the heat absorbed by the coolant from the lubricating oil decreases until the first temperature transmitted by the first temperature sensor to the controller rises to the set temperature range.

[0037] In the embodiment of the present application, the cooling system comprises a controller, a lubricating oil circuit, a coolant circuit and a cooling water circuit. In the lubricating oil circuit, a lubricating oil circulation path is formed between an oil outlet of a test object, a second oil pump, a first oil tank, a first oil pump, a first flow passage of a first heat exchanger and an oil inlet of the test object. A first temperature sensor is arranged at the oil inlet of the test object to measure the first temperature of the lubricating oil input to the oil inlet. In the coolant circuit, a coolant circulation path is formed between a second flow passage of the first heat exchanger, a circulating pump and a third flow passage of a second heat exchanger. In the cooling water circuit, a cooling water circulation path is formed between a cooling water inlet, an electrically-controlled two-way valve, a fourth flow passage of the second heat exchanger and a cooling water outlet. The lubricating oil circuit and the coolant circuit exchange heat through the first heat exchanger, and the coolant circuit and the cooling water circuit exchange heat through the second heat exchanger.
