Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the automotive field, specifically a waste heat exchange device for diesel engine exhaust gas. Background Technology
[0002] New energy vehicles are becoming increasingly popular and entering more and more people's daily lives. Currently, there are two common types of battery packs used in new energy vehicles: ternary lithium batteries and lithium iron phosphate batteries. They share a common characteristic: their energy release is affected by the weather temperature. The lower the temperature, the lower the energy release. In winter, when the driver's cab of a new energy vehicle needs to be heated by an electric heat pump, the heat pump consumes a lot of electricity, causing the battery pack to drain very quickly and resulting in a significant reduction in range. Therefore, in addition to relying on its own battery for heating, parking heaters are increasingly being used for heating.
[0003] Parking heaters are vehicle-mounted heating devices independent of the vehicle's own power source. They have their own fuel lines, electrical circuits, combustion heating devices, and control devices. Using parking heaters to provide heating in new energy vehicles eliminates the need to consume battery power, ensuring the vehicle's range. Diesel engines are one of the most commonly used parking heaters. However, when a diesel engine is working, the exhaust air carries away a significant portion of the waste heat, resulting in waste. Therefore, a waste heat exchange device for diesel engine exhaust gas is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a waste heat exchange device for diesel engine exhaust gas to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A waste heat exchange device for diesel engine exhaust includes a diesel engine installed in the cabin of a car. The diesel engine is equipped with a heat exchanger. The exhaust pipe of the diesel engine is connected to the heat exchanger. Circulating water pipes are connected to both sides of the heat exchanger. The circulating water pipes are connected to a water pump and to the inlet and outlet of the heat exchanger to form a closed loop. A water tank is also connected in the closed loop. The closed loop is also equipped with a battery heating plate.
[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the diesel heater is connected to the fuel tank via a fuel pipeline, the fuel tank is installed in the front engine compartment of the vehicle, and the circuit and control device of the diesel heater are installed in the passenger compartment of the vehicle.
[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model: the battery heating plate is provided with a folded circulating water pipe, and the battery heating plate is located at the vehicle battery.
[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model: the water tank is also connected to an antifreeze tank, which is filled with antifreeze.
[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model: the circulating water pipe passes through a branch pipe to the seat cushion or backrest, and the branch pipe is equipped with a solenoid valve for control.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0012] Upon entering the vehicle in cold weather, the diesel heater and water pump are turned on first. The diesel heater generates heat, raising the temperature inside the rider's cabin and also serving a defrosting function. The exhaust gas produced by the diesel heater can reach a temperature of about 300℃ when it passes through the exhaust port. This exhaust gas is then guided into the heat exchanger, which heats the circulating water. As the circulating water passes through the battery heating plate, it preheats the low-temperature battery, thus utilizing the waste heat from the diesel heater. This allows the vehicle's battery temperature to be maintained between 15-30℃, effectively solving the problem of new energy vehicles not being able to fully utilize their power in cold weather, and maximizing the range of new energy vehicles in low-temperature environments.

[0013] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the waste heat exchange device for diesel engine exhaust gas.
[0014] The components include: 1. Diesel engine; 2. Heat exchanger; 3. Exhaust pipe; 4. Exhaust port; 5. Water tank; 6. Water pump; 7. Circulating water pipe; 8. Battery heating plate; 9. Exhaust control valve. Detailed Implementation
[0015] Please see Figure 1 In this embodiment of the utility model, a waste heat exchange device for diesel engine exhaust includes a diesel engine 1 installed in the cabin of a car. The diesel engine 1 is connected to a fuel tank 4 through a fuel line 3. The fuel tank 4 is installed in the front engine compartment of the car. The circuit, control device, etc. of the diesel engine 1 are all installed in the cabin of the car. The fuel tank is filled with diesel fuel required for the operation.
[0016] The diesel heater 1 is equipped with a heat exchanger 2. The exhaust pipe 3 of the diesel heater 1 is connected to the heat exchanger 2. The heat exchanger 2 is connected to both sides by circulating water pipes 7. The circulating water pipes are connected to a water pump 6 and to the inlet and outlet of the heat exchanger 2 to form a closed loop. The closed loop is also connected to a water tank 5. The closed loop is also equipped with a battery heating plate 8. The battery heating plate 8 is equipped with folded circulating water pipes 7. The battery heating plate 8 is located at the vehicle battery. The vehicle battery pack is heated through the battery heating plate 8. The heat exchanger 2 is also equipped with several exhaust ports 4. Each exhaust port is equipped with an exhaust control valve 9.
[0017] The water tank 5 is also connected to an antifreeze tank, which is filled with antifreeze. After entering the circuit, the antifreeze prevents freezing, boiling, corrosion, and scale buildup, ensuring the effectiveness of the circulation pipeline.
[0018] The water pump 6, water tank 5, and antifreeze tank are all installed in the front engine compartment of the vehicle. The controller for the water pump, which is connected to the circuit, is located in the cabin. Preferably, it is installed near the control device of the diesel engine 1 for easy operation.
[0019] In addition, the circulating water pipe 7 can also pass through the seat cushion or backrest via a branch pipe. The branch pipe is equipped with a solenoid valve for control, so that when the temperature is low, the hot water can be passed through the branch by opening the branch solenoid valve to heat the seat cushion or backrest, thereby improving its functionality.
[0020] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0021] Upon entering the vehicle in cold weather, the diesel heater 1 and water pump 6 are turned on first. The diesel heater 1 generates heat, raising the temperature inside the car cabin and performing defrosting functions. The exhaust gas produced by the diesel heater 1 reaches a temperature of about 300℃ at the exhaust outlet. This exhaust gas is then guided into the heat exchanger 2, which heats the circulating water. When the circulating water 7 passes through the battery pack heating plate 8, it preheats the low-temperature battery, thus utilizing the waste heat of the diesel heater 1. This allows the vehicle battery temperature to be maintained between 15-30℃, effectively solving the problem of new energy vehicles being unable to release heat in cold weather and maximizing the range of new energy vehicles in low-temperature environments.
