Résumé : Experimental measurements by thermocouples and infrared thermography are made in the intercooler of a supercharged spark-ignition engine (engine displacement: 1.2L, compression ratio: 10.5:1, power: 95.6kW) for several engine operating points. A calculation method is developed to define locally the fluid thermal properties (density, specific heat, dynamic viscosity, etc, …) as a function of temperature. Following, local heat transfer coefficient and Nusselt number are determined.
