AVL ConsysCool

COOLANT CONDITIONING

The coolant conditioning unit AVL ConsysCool is used to bring the engine coolant to a freely definable temperature and to keep it within tight limits. A coolant pressure control is optionally available.

AVL Approach

The total range of ConsysCool fulfills the requirements on nearly all engine tests. The AVL ConsysCool supports research engineers in end-of-line tests, single cylinder research engines and high dynamic applications for race car engines.

Benefits at a Glance

  • Stainless steel tubing avoids dissociation of rust particles and guarantees long time value
  • Excellent control accuracy and dynamics for various applications
  • Easy to use visualization software, integrated in PUMA Open automation. This Graphical User Interface (GUI) with an interactive flow diagram allows a user friendly handling and monitoring of all active control components.
  • Faster control response due to a primary controlled media circuit (coolant) compared to a secondary (cooling water) controlled device
  • Fast installation/setup time due to the 'plug & play' function. The configuration of the connected unit is automatically identified by the PUMA automation
  • Minimized commissioning time due to simple configuration and parameterization of controllers by using preset basic parameters
  • One unit for a wide application range

Options

The coolant conditioning unit AVL ConsyCool can be used as an intermediate circuit conditioning unit for oil and boost air conditioning, as it is very frequently applied in conjunction with pallet systems. A special addition to the AVL ConsysCool allows for the simulation of dynamic temperature profiles on engine testbeds.

Control Principle

The requested coolant temperature is maintained by a combined primary (coolant) and secondary (cooling water) controlled circuit. The installed electrical heating improves the dynamic behavior of the device.

In addition to the temperature control the coolant system pressure and the supply/return pressure to the engine can be controlled (radiator simulation).

Applications

Beside the standard temperature range, AVL can also offer modified units for climatic test beds down to -40°C.
