39 results about "Heater core" patented technology

A heater core is a radiator-like device used in heating the cabin of a vehicle. Hot coolant from the vehicle's engine is passed through a winding tube of the core, a heat exchanger between coolant and cabin air. Fins attached to the core tubes serve to increase surface for heat transfer to air that is forced past them, by a fan, thereby heating the passenger compartment.

Cooling system for vehicles and control method thereof

ActiveUS20190136743A1Improve vehicle performanceimprove fuel efficiencyLiquid coolingElectrical controlNuclear engineeringCoolant flow
A cooling system for vehicles and a control method thereof improves indoor heating performance and fuel efficiency by controlling a flow rate of a coolant passing through a heater core together with an EGR cooler. A coolant having an increased temperature is first supplied to the heater core side through a flow stagnancy control to rapidly increase the temperature of the coolant flowing in the heater core, thereby improving heating performance. A warm-up feature is improved through an exhaust heat recovery function by a heat exchange between the exhaust gas and the coolant in the EGR cooler, thereby improving efficiency of fuel.

A method, system, and storage medium for selecting and starting a heat source for a range-extended vehicle.

This invention relates to the field of electric vehicle technology, and more specifically to a method, system, and storage medium for selecting and starting a heat source for a range-extended vehicle. Based on the heating requirements of the passenger compartment or battery pack, the PTC outlet temperature, and the target temperature of the heater core, a heat source is selected. When the PTC does not meet the heating conditions of the passenger compartment or battery pack, the engine is started, using the engine as the heat source. When the PTC meets the heating conditions of the passenger compartment or battery pack, the engine is stopped, and the PTC becomes the heat source. Charging the power battery also utilizes the engine. When the power battery voltage is less than V0, the engine is started; when the power battery voltage is greater than V1, the engine is stopped. When the engine is charging the power battery, the engine is used preferentially as the heat source. If a fault occurs during engine start-up or shutdown, a fault warning is issued to the user. This invention enables range-extended vehicles to select a suitable heat source and provide appropriate equipment fault warnings to the user.
