A cooling circuit for a vehicle may include a plurality of cylinder heads into which cooling water is continuously introduced from a plurality of cylinder blocks oppositely disposed parallel with each other, wherein a flow control valve may include a head port, through which the cooling water discharged from the plurality of cylinder heads is joined and the joined cooling water is introduced into the flow control valve, and wherein the flow control valve also may include a set of ports including a radiator port, a heat exchanger port, and a heater core port, through which the cooling water introduced into the flow control valve is discharged towards a radiator, an oil heat exchanger, and a heater core, respectively.

Flow control valve and cooling circuit for vehicles with flow control valve

An electronic thermostat control system may include a control duty determination portion outputting PWM duty signal for controlling the coolant temperature according to a coolant temperature, a rising rate of the coolant temperature, an engine speed, a load and a vehicle speed, a driving portion applying a time condition to the PWM duty signal output by the control duty determination portion for controlling outputting interval, and a fault diagnosis portion diagnosing operations of the electronic thermostat by analyzing the signals output by the driving portion and changes of the coolant temperature.

Engine cooling system, electronic thermostat control system and control method for the same

A control method of an electrical thermostat that includes an operating heater heating wax so as to operate an operating valve that may be disposed to close a coolant passage according to an exemplary embodiment of may include detecting a coolant temperature of coolant circulating a coolant passage, determining whether the coolant temperature may be included in a predetermined heating temperature range, performing a coolant heating mode by supplying a predetermined level of power to the operating heater for a predetermined time, if the coolant temperature may be within the heating temperature range, and stopping the coolant heating mode in a condition that the operating valve may be closed.

Control system of electrical thermostat and the system thereof

A sintered alloy for a valve seat may be manufactured using a method including: mixing MnS with an alloy powder for a valve seat including C at 0.8-1.2 wt %, Ni at 2.0-4.5 wt %, Cr at 3.0-5.0 wt %, Mo at 16.0-20.0 wt %, Co at 9.0-13.0 wt %, V at 0.05-0.15 wt %, S at 0.2-0.8 wt %, Fe, and additional inevitable impurities; making a first shape by forming the mixed materials; pre-sintering the first formed shape; making a secondary shape by re-pressing the first pre-sintered shape; main-sintering the secondary shape; and tempering the main-sintered secondary shape.

An engine having a multi flow rate control valve may include a valve, a valve housing and a driving unit. The valve may have a hollow pipe structure and coolant holes through which a coolant supplied to a space at a center portion of the valve is to be distributed and cooled outside of the valve. The valve housing may be coupled with the valve such that an inner side of the valve housing is capable of being in close contact with an outer side of the valve, and have coolant outlets formed at positions corresponding to the coolant holes. The driving unit may rotate the valve to selectively connect the respective coolant holes to the corresponding coolant outlets or close the coolant holes by bringing them in close contact with the inner side of the valve housing.

A glow plug may include: i) a hollow plug housing that is mounted on a plug mount in an insulation status; ii) a center shaft that is fixed to one end of the plug housing in an insulation status and receives power from the outside; iii) a heating unit that is connected to the center shaft and the other end of the plug housing, and generates heat using a potential difference; and iv) a connecting unit that insulates the plug mount and the center shaft, is coupled to the plug mount, and electrically connects with center shaft with the plug housing.

Glow plug and electric thermostat with the same

An engine system may include a thermostat casing connected to a first, second, third, and fourth flow channels, a valve guide in which a main valve that opens and closes the first flow channel is formed at one side, a closing valve that opens and closes the second flow channel is formed at the other side, and a bypass valve is formed adjacent to the closing valve, an elastic member that elastically supports the valve guide to enable the main valve to block the first flow channel and the closing valve to block the second flow channel, a driver that moves the valve guide so that the main valve opens the first flow channel and the closing valve opens the second flow channel according to a temperature of a coolant, and a control unit that controls the temperature and a flow of the coolant by controlling the driver.

Engine having thermostat and system thereof

A lubrication apparatus of a fuel pump driven by a fuel pump drive cam, which lubricates a tappet moving reciprocally at an interior circumference of a fuel pump adaptor and the fuel pump operating the tappet, may include a fuel pump adaptor lubrication passage formed in the fuel pump adaptor and communicating with an oil gallery formed inside a cylinder head so as to supply oil in the fuel pump adaptor.
