A heat exchange apparatus for working fluids in power machines, including a portion of
hydraulic circuit within which the
working fluid is adapted to flow, in this
hydraulic circuit portion the following being provided: - a radiator, including o a radiator inlet, for the
working fluid to enter the radiator, o an outlet, for the
working fluid to exit the radiator, o a heat dissipation path for the fluid between the inlet and the outlet, - a fluid
discharge path adapted to bypass the heat dissipation path, - a pilotable valve, arranged upstream of the dissipation path and the
discharge path, adapted to manage the flow of the working fluid between the fluid
discharge path and the heat dissipation path, - an electronic control module, operationally connected to the pilotable valve and configured to
pilot the pilotable valve so that the working fluid, depending on the piloting imposed by the electronic control module, is adapted to pass through only the heat dissipation path, or the fluid discharge path, at least partially. With this configuration, it is possible, with a single valve device built into the radiator, to bypass on command the heat dissipation channels according to a desired logic of fluid
flow management provided in the electronic control module, sending a certain quantity of working fluid, when needed, to the radiator outlet, thus being able, for example, to anticipate the pressure peaks, to optimize the thermal power, to manage radiator temperatures, etc.
