APPARATUS OF DECREASING INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE OF ENGINE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17992248 titled 'APPARATUS OF DECREASING INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE OF ENGINE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an apparatus for reducing the temperature of the intake air in an engine. This is achieved through three cooling circuits:
- The first cooling circuit consists of a compressor, condenser, first expansion valve, and evaporator. Refrigerant flows through this circuit to cool the intake air.
- The second cooling circuit also includes a compressor, condenser, and a second expansion valve. A chiller is added to this circuit to further cool the refrigerant.
- The third cooling circuit involves an electric water pump, chiller, intercooler, and radiator. Coolant flows through this circuit to cool the engine.
The innovation aims to improve engine performance by reducing the intake air temperature, which can lead to increased power output and fuel efficiency.
Original Abstract Submitted
An apparatus of decreasing intake air temperature of an engine includes: a first cooling circuit including a compressor, a condenser, a first expansion valve, and an evaporator disposed along a first cooling line through which refrigerant flows; a second cooling circuit including the compressor, the condenser, a second expansion valve, and a chiller disposed along a second cooling line through which the refrigerant flows; and a third cooling circuit including an electric water pump, the chiller, an intercooler, and a radiator disposed along a third cooling line through which coolant flows.
