Summary:

Military vehicles are intended to operate at rugged terrains in adverse environmental conditions. Unlike a regular truck, these vehicles are powered by a much bigger engine and transmission to meet the vehicle performance parameters. Thermal systems in these vehicles are challenging. With the adverse climatic condition and driving terrains, the criticality of Engine cooling system is intensified. In this paper, a Cooling system is finalized for a high mobility military vehicle with higher power engine, Automatic transmission and a hydraulic retarder. Thermal load cases are different for each. Modelling is done in thermal simulation software KULI. A steady state simulation is done for engine and automatic transmission where-as transient simulation is performed for retarder. The aim is to finalize a cooling system circuit consisting of radiator, oil to air cooler and oil to water cooler which are interconnected to meet the heat load demand of engine, transmission and retarder together
