Abstract

After a study on the existing preheating scheme of vehicle engines, we propose to design an onboard electromagnetic preheating unit. Connected to 220v power, the unit may generate a high frequency alternating magnetic field through rectification and inversion. It will heat the engine cover directly and constantly to conduct heat to the engine and its oil so that the temperature rises up to meet the conditions for vehicles to start up.
