Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of marine power technology, and in particular to a marine main engine cooling water temperature control system. Background Technology

[0002] To meet the requirements for the main unit's cooling water intake and to regulate the circulating temperature of the main unit's cooling water, preventing high / low temperature alarms or even shutdown, a temperature control valve must be installed in the main unit's cooling water pipeline. The main unit's cooling water temperature is measured by a temperature sensor installed on the cooling water pipeline. The measured temperature data is fed back to the temperature controller, which analyzes the temperature data and adjusts the opening of the temperature control valve to control the amount of cooling water entering the system, thereby stabilizing the cooling water temperature. According to the main unit's specifications, the temperature control valve's temperature range must meet the main unit's monitoring and alarm temperature requirements, ensuring that the cooling water temperature remains within the main unit's operating range and guaranteeing normal operation.

[0003] As a crucial component for ensuring the operating temperature of the main unit, the selection and technical parameters of the temperature control valve directly affect the cooling efficiency of the cooling water, thus impacting the normal operating conditions of the main unit. Currently, domestic temperature control valve manufacturers can meet the requirements of the main unit in terms of temperature control range and data feedback control. However, under extreme operating conditions, the inability to achieve complete sealing can lead to cooling water leakage. This results in the main unit not being able to be fully cooled by the high-temperature cooling water under high load, triggering the main unit's cooling water alarm. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a ship engine cooling water temperature control system, which avoids the need to replace imported temperature control valves and thus reduces costs, while ensuring cooling water flow under extreme operating conditions and meeting the engine cooling water temperature control requirements.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A marine main engine cooling water temperature control system includes a three-way thermostatic valve, an inlet main engine cooling water pipeline, an inlet plate cooler cooling water pipeline, and a cooling water pipeline. The three valve ports of the three-way thermostatic valve are respectively connected to the inlet water pipeline, the inlet main engine cooling water pipeline, and the inlet plate cooler cooling water pipeline. One end of the cooling water pipeline is connected to the inlet main engine cooling water pipeline, and the other end is connected to the cooling water outlet of the main engine cylinder liner cooler. A first shut-off valve is provided on the inlet plate cooler cooling water pipeline, and the first shut-off valve is located between the valve port of the three-way thermostatic valve and the plate cooler inlet.

[0007] Furthermore, a second shut-off valve is provided on the main unit cooling water pipeline, and the second shut-off valve is located between the valve port of the three-way temperature control valve and the connection point between the cooling water pipeline and the main unit cooling water pipeline.

[0008] Furthermore, the system also includes a temperature sensor and a temperature controller. The temperature sensor is located on the main unit's cooling water pipeline, and the temperature sensor is electrically connected to the temperature controller. The three-way temperature control valve is electrically connected to the temperature controller.

[0009] Furthermore, the first and second shut-off valves can be manually operated locally.

[0010] This invention relates to a marine main engine cooling water temperature control system. First, a first shut-off valve is installed on the pipeline from the temperature control valve outlet to the plate cooler inlet. This ensures that cooling water does not leak into the plate cooler and be cooled during internal circulation, preventing low-temperature cooling water from failing to rise in time due to leakage and triggering a low-temperature alarm. Second, a second shut-off valve is installed on the pipeline from the temperature control valve outlet to the main engine inlet. This allows all high-temperature cooling water under high-load conditions to enter the plate cooler, ensuring cooling efficiency and preventing high-temperature cooling water from failing to cool completely due to leakage and triggering a high-temperature alarm. This invention solves the cooling water temperature control problem caused by temperature control valve leakage, meeting main engine specifications while saving the cost of replacing the temperature control valve.
