Focus on engine cooling – DuPont has cool solutions to hot engines

چکیده
Modern engines are cooled by complex air and liquid cooling systems that manage the flow of high temperature air, gases and coolants, and house critical thermal management components. Plastics, many supplied by DuPont, are playing an increasingly important role in key cooling system parts including thermostat and heater housings, outlet and inlet ports, valves, cross-overs, coolant pumps, water jacket spacers, charged air coolers (CAC) and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) coolers.

Investigations of Thermal Barrier Coatings for Turbine Parts
Progress in gas-turbine engine (GTE) manufacturing is continuously linked with a rise of operating temperature and stresses of engine gas path elements, especially the turbine parts. More advanced cooling systems, structural materials and thermal barrier coatings (TBC) and other coatings provide the required life and strength reliability of these components. While engines are in use, the necess...
متن کاملSensitivity Analysis of Different Parameters Affecting Thermal Contact Conductance
In internal combustion engines, exhaust valve and its seat gain considerable temperature as the hot gases exit through them. So, the rate of heat transfer should be under control. In this study, the contact heat transfer coefficient has been estimated. An experimental study on an Air-Cooled internal combustion engine cylinder head has been considered. Using the measured temperatures of sensors ...

The subjects of heat transfer and cooling system are very important topics in the Internal Combustion Engines (ICE). In modern cooling systems, low weight, small size and high compactness are the critical designing criteria that requires heat transfer enhancement. Boiling phenomenon which is occurred in the water jacket of the ICE is one of the methods to increase heat transfer in the coolant s...
متن کاملThe mechanics of coating delamination in thermal gradients
Oxide coatings used for various components in the hot section of aero-turbine engines experience temperature gradients at various stages during their flight cycle. One gradient exists during steady-state, due to the combination of the combustion environment next to the free surface and internal cooling of the underlying superalloy substrate. Other gradients develop during cooling of the surface...
