Title:
A COOLING SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/146592
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
There is described a cooling package (22) for a vehicle, such as an agricultural tractor, having a charge air cooler assembly (32). The cooling package and charge air cooler assembly are configured such that airflow is routed through a charge air cooler multiple times in order to cool a compressed charge of air. As the temperature rise experienced by the coolant airflow is relatively minor compared to the initial temperature of the compressed charge air the airflow is initially routed through an outlet-side portion (36a) of the charge air cooler to cool the compressed charge of air towards the outlet side (36) of the charge air cooler, the airflow subsequently routed through an inlet- side portion (34a) of the charge air cooler to cool the compressed charge of air towards the inlet side (34) of the charge air cooler.
