SDU coolant flow direction
Posted: Mon Feb 22, 2021 3:02 am
I'm working on installing a S-RDU in my Boxster as detailed on my project thread -- electronics are working well so far, so now it's time to think about cooling.
Looking at the unit, there are four coolant barbs. Two on a small heat exchanger on the top of the unit (the motor cooler), and two on the inverter.
I will be sending flow through the inverter first just to keep temperatures a little lower.
However, is there an 'ideal' or at least 'recommended' flow direction for each part?
Thanks!
