  • Publication number: 20080017138
    Abstract: The invention relates to a cooling system (1) for a motor vehicle (3), comprising at least one heat exchanger (14, 15), in particular an intercooler, which is traversed by a medium, in particular a coolant that is used to cool a motor (9) and which comprises a heat exchanger air-penetration surface that is traversed by an air stream along a first stream path (26) in a first operating mode, in particular a back-pressure mode and is additionally or alternatively traversed by an air stream along a second stream path (24) running through an air conduction unit (20) in a second operating mode, in particular a ventilator mode. The air conduction unit is located between the heat exchanger (14, 15) and the motor (9) and comprises a conduction air-penetration surface.

  • Patent number: 7310946
    Abstract: The invention relates to a circuit arrangement (K) comprising a low-temperature circuit (NK) for cooling charge air (13) that is fed to a motor (8) in a motor vehicle equipped with a turbocharger. According to the invention, the charge air (13) is compressed in two stages in a first low-pressure turbocharger (1) and a second high-pressure turbocharger (2). To cool the charge air (13) a first cooler (3) is provided downstream of the low-pressure turbocharger (1) and upstream of the high-pressure turbocharger (2) and a second cooler (4) is provided downstream of the high-pressure turbocharger (2) and upstream of the motor (8). The invention also relates to a method for operating a circuit arrangement (K) of this type.
