The medium inside the tube bundle is cooling water, and the medium outside the tube bundle is lubricating oil. The two exchange heat to realize the function of cooling the lubricating oil. Low-temperature cooling water enters the water chamber through the water chamber inlet. After passing through the tube bundle, the low-temperature cooling water becomes high-temperature cooling water and is discharged from the water chamber outlet. High-temperature lubricating oil enters the oil pipeline inlet of the six-way valve, and the lubricating oil after cooling flows out of the oil pipeline outlet of the six-way valve.
