BACKGROUND

With the modernization in China, engineering machines become more complicated and larger in structure and higher in speed, which makes heat management and noise problems of the engineering machines more prominent. Difficult heat dissipation and loud noise of engineering machines during heavy-load work are the key factors restraining the quality improvement of engineering machines. The engineering machines are often fixed during work and transferred at a low speed, and are high in power. The heat loss by radiation of a diesel engine of the engineering machines accounts for about 700 of fuel heat, only about 30% of the fuel heat is used for effective power, and power consumed by a fan and accessories even reaches 20% of the effective power. In addition, the engineering machines have multiple heat sources, which generally include a hydraulic system, working devices, in addition to the engine. In order to make a cooling system work in an optimal condition, engineering vehicles should have a sufficient heat dissipation capacity and generate low noise, so it is necessary to optimize the overall arrangement, condition and relative positions of parts such as a fan, a radiator, a hood and a fan cover, to verify the suitability of model selection of these parts through optimal matching.
