It is to control the intake air temperature and maintain a good combustion effect.
Intercoolers are generally only visible when turbocharged vehicles are installed. Because the intercooler is actually a turbocharged kit, its role is to increase the efficiency of the engine's ventilation.
Why a turbocharged engine has more power than a normal engine, one of the reasons is that the efficiency of its ventilation is higher than that of a normal engine. When the air enters the turbocharger, its temperature will increase greatly, and the density will also become smaller. The intercooler will play the role of cooling air. The high-temperature air will be cooled by the intercooler and then enter the engine. If there is no intercooler and the pressurized high-temperature air enters the engine directly, the engine will be damaged or even die of fire due to the high air temperature.
For supercharged engines, the intercooler is an important component of the booster system. Whether it is a supercharged engine or a turbocharged engine, an intercooler needs to be installed between the supercharger and the intake manifold of the engine. The turbocharged engine is used as an example to briefly describe the intercooler.
The role of the intercooler
The role of the intercooler is to reduce the intake air temperature of the engine. So why reduce the intake air temperature?
(1) The temperature of the exhaust gas emitted by the engine is very high, and the heat conduction through the supercharger increases the temperature of the intake air. Moreover, the density of the air will increase during the compression process, which will inevitably lead to an increase in air temperature, thereby affecting the engine's inflation efficiency. If you want to further improve the efficiency of the gas, we must reduce the intake temperature. The data shows that under the same air-fuel ratio, the engine power can be increased by 3% to 5% for every 10°C decrease in the charge air temperature.
(2) If uncooled charge air enters the combustion chamber, in addition to affecting the engine's charging efficiency, it can easily cause the engine's combustion temperature to be too high, causing knock and other failures, and it will increase the NOx content in engine exhaust gas. , causing air pollution.
In order to solve the adverse effect caused by the increase in air temperature after pressurization, it is necessary to install an intercooler to reduce the intake air temperature.
Strainer Valve,Y Type Strainer,Y Strainer Valve,Flanged Y Strainer
The Y-type strainer of Aone-Best is the basic mother valve of all hydraulic control valves. It can equiped with different pilot to adapt to different occasions from the function. For example, with a pressure reducing pilot, the whole valve is a pressure reducing valve; with a pressure relief pilot, the whole valve becomes a pressure relief valve, and so on. Valves are available in a variety of size and flange standards for selection, widely used in municipal water supply, building water supply, air conditioning, fire protection, industrial water, power and irrigation facilities.
