[0031] In the test device 100 for the cooling and lubrication system provided by the utility model, a cooling circuit is formed in the cooling test system 1. When performing a cooling performance test, the switching device switches the first connecting pipe 13 to connect to the cooling trunk line 11, and the first heating device 111 simulates the heating element in the fan to heat the liquid in the cooling circuit. Then the liquid flows to the heat dissipation device 112 for heat dissipation, and is then cooled by an external cooling device, so as to test the cooling performance of the cooling device in the fan; a lubrication circuit is formed in the lubrication test system 2. When performing a lubrication performance test, the switching device The second connecting pipeline 23 is switched to be connected to the lubrication trunk line 21, and the heating condition of the lubricating fluid during the transportation process is simulated by the second heating device 211, and then connected to the external temperature control valve for temperature control test, so as to test the temperature control performance of the temperature control valve in the fan; and when a coupling test is required, the first heat exchange pipeline 12 and the second heat exchange pipeline 22 are controlled to be connected, and the lubricating fluid in the lubrication circuit will exchange heat with the liquid in the cooling circuit in the heat exchanger, simulating the heat exchange between the lubrication circuit and the cooling circuit under actual working conditions, thereby facilitating accurate testing of the performance of the cooling device and the temperature control valve.

[0032] It should be noted that the switching device is used to switch the connectivity between the first heat exchange pipeline 12 and the first connecting pipeline 13, and between the second heat exchange pipeline 22 and the second connecting pipeline 23. The switching device has multiple implementations. For example, a three-way valve can be used to respectively realize the on-off of the first heat exchange pipeline 12 and the first connecting pipeline 13, and the on-off of the second heat exchange pipeline 22 and the second connecting pipeline 23.

[0033] Specifically, in the present application, the first heat exchange pipeline 12, the first connecting pipeline 13, the second heat exchange pipeline 22, and the second connecting pipeline 23 are all provided with an on-off valve 41, and the switching device includes the on-off valve 41. In this embodiment, the on-off valve 41 realizes the on-off of a single pipeline, the structure is simple and reliable, and the separate switching of different pipelines can be realized, the control is simpler, and the flow and pressure control in the pipeline can be realized.

[0034] When testing the cooling performance and lubrication performance, the on-off valve 41 on the first heat exchange pipeline 12 is controlled to be closed, and the on-off valve 41 on the first connecting pipeline 13 is controlled to be opened. At the same time, the on-off valve 41 on the second heat exchange pipeline 22 is controlled to be closed, and the on-off valve 41 on the second connecting pipeline 23 is controlled to be opened, so that the cooling circuit and the lubrication circuit are tested for cooling and lubrication performance separately; and when a coupling test is required, the on-off valve 41 on the first heat exchange pipeline 12 and the second heat exchange pipeline 22 is controlled to be opened, and the on-off valve 41 on the first connecting pipeline 13 and the second connecting pipeline 23 is controlled to be closed, so that the liquid in the cooling circuit and the lubrication circuit generates heat exchange, simulating the actual thermal conditions in the fan, and facilitating cooling and lubrication performance testing.

[0035] Furthermore, two on-off valves 41 are provided on the first heat exchange pipeline 12, and the two on-off valves 41 are respectively located on both sides of the heat exchanger 3. In this embodiment, the two on-off valves can better cut off the liquid flow between the heat exchanger 3 and the cooling circuit to prevent the liquid in the cooling trunk line 11 from flowing into the heat exchanger 3 from one end of the heat exchanger 3, causing problems in the subsequent coupling test.

[0036] Similarly, two on-off valves 41 are provided on the second heat exchange pipeline 22, and the two on-off valves 41 are respectively located on both sides of the heat exchanger 3. In this embodiment, the two on-off valves 41 are used to achieve complete switching between the heat exchanger 3 and the lubrication circuit, thereby avoiding problems in subsequent coupling tests.

[0037] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the two relevant technical features of the on-off valve 41 on the first heat exchange pipeline 12 and the second heat exchange pipeline 22 may be selected to exist alone or simultaneously, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0039] On the other hand, a pressure transmitter 51 is provided on the first heat exchange pipeline 12 and / or the second heat exchange pipeline 22. In this embodiment, the pressure during heat exchange between the first heat exchange pipeline 12 and the second heat exchange pipeline 22 can be monitored by the pressure transmitter 51, and the heat exchange efficiency can be judged to facilitate adjustment, thereby ensuring that the simulation of the actual situation can be achieved.

[0040] It should be noted that the first heat exchange pipeline 12 and the second heat exchange pipeline 22 can be provided with the pressure transmitter 51 either one or both. In the present embodiment, the first heat exchange pipeline 12 and the second heat exchange pipeline 22 can be provided with the pressure transmitter at the same time to facilitate more accurate judgment.

[0042] Similarly, two pressure transmitters 51 are provided on the second heat exchange pipeline 22, and the two pressure transmitters 51 are respectively located on both sides of the heat exchanger 3. In this embodiment, the pressure value on the second heat exchange pipeline 22 is detected more accurately.

[0046] Furthermore, a regulating valve 114 is provided on the cooling trunk circuit 11, which is provided on the outlet side of the water pump 113 to adjust the liquid flow in the cooling circuit. In this embodiment, a regulating valve 114 is provided on the outlet side of the water pump 113 to adjust the liquid flow in the cooling circuit, so as to simulate the liquid flow in cooling circuits of different designs.

[0047] It should be noted that there are multiple implementations of the regulating valve 114 as long as it can regulate the flow in the flow path. In the present application, the regulating valve 114 is a ball valve.

[0048] Similarly, the lubrication trunk line 21 is further provided with a gear pump 212, and the gear pump 212 is used to drive the liquid in the lubrication circuit to flow. In this embodiment, the gear pump drives the liquid in the lubrication circuit to flow.

[0049] On the other hand, the heat exchanger 3 comprises a plate heat exchanger to facilitate heat exchange between the cooling circuit and the lubrication circuit.

[0050] On the other hand, at least one of a temperature sensor, a pressure transmitter, and a flow meter is disposed on the cooling trunk line 11. In this embodiment, the liquid state in the cooling trunk line 11 is monitored by the temperature sensor, the pressure transmitter, or the flow meter.

[0051] It should be noted that there are multiple temperature sensors, two of which are located on both sides of the heat dissipation device, and one is located on the outlet side of the water pump. Similarly, there are two pressure transmitters, two of which are located on both sides of the heat dissipation device.

[0052] Likewise, at least one of a temperature sensor, a pressure transmitter, and a flow meter is disposed on the lubrication trunk line 21 to detect the state of the liquid in the lubrication trunk line 21 .

[0053] It should be noted that the two related technical features of the cooling main circuit 11 and the lubrication main circuit 21 may exist alone or simultaneously.

[0054] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention.
