Study on Activation System of Thermostatic Preheating Engine
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Innovatively addressing the challenge of difficult winter starts for vehicles in northern regions, this study has developed a Thermally Controlled Preheating Engine Activation System. This system ingeniously integrates a thermal insulation kettle, an efficient water pump, precision valves, and temperature sensors, all closely linked with the engine’s coolant circulation system. In cold environments, the system automatically initiates a preheating mechanism by circulating and heating the coolant, significantly enhancing engine startup efficiency and reducing wear caused by cold starts. The anticipated outcome of this research is to substantially improve the operational reliability of vehicles in cold climates, extend their lifespan, promote energy conservation and emissions reduction, and drive the automotive industry towards greener, more efficient, and intelligent technologies, thus laying a solid foundation for industry upgrades and transformation.
