Method for compensating thermal expansion of volume in cooling cycle of liquid-cooled internal combustion engine, involves detecting liquid level parameters, particularly coolant level in compensation container by sensor device

摘要

The method involves detecting liquid level parameters, particularly coolant level in a compensation container (9) by a sensor device (16). The liquid level parameter detected by the sensor device is fed in a control and regulating device (17). The control and regulating device actuates a compensation device (19) according to the liquid level parameter. An independent claim is included for a device for compensating the thermal expansion of volume in a cooling cycle of a liquid-cooled internal combustion engine.
