Detailed Description

To make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are some, but not all embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

The current new energy vehicles comprise pure electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, extended range electric vehicles and the like, and all the new energy vehicles have the problem of limited endurance mileage.

The thermal management system is an integrated concept, each part in an automobile is often independent and split, and the thermal management is to make the correlation among a plurality of parts.

The inventor researches and finds that the traditional heat management method is to heat the battery through the PTC heater and turn off the PTC after the battery is heated to the target temperature, and the residual heat in the system is dissipated to the air in a natural cooling mode. Likewise, the waste heat utilization of the electric drive system (including the motor, the inverter, etc.) is very low, and is often dissipated to the outside in a cooling and dissipating manner.

The thermal management system in the new energy automobile plays a role in management of an electric drive system and a battery system and also relates to management of an air conditioning system. In winter, due to the fact that the temperature is low in winter, the requirements of part systems and passengers for heat are increased, and in a winter pure electric mode, the heating of an air conditioning system and a battery pack basically and completely depends on PTC heating, so that the endurance mileage of a new energy automobile with low energy utilization rate is greatly reduced.

Based on this, according to the thermal management system and the new energy automobile provided by the embodiment of the invention, the direct current converter, the vehicle-mounted charger and the power supply are connected in series, so that the heating of the battery by heat is recycled, the energy utilization rate of the system is improved, and the endurance mileage of the vehicle is improved.

To facilitate understanding of the present embodiment, a detailed description will be given of a thermal management system disclosed in the present embodiment.

Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a thermal management system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in fig. 1, the system includes a vehicle control unit (not shown), a battery temperature monitoring module (not shown), and a battery circuit, where the battery circuit includes a dc converter, a vehicle-mounted charger, a power supply, a heater, and a first three-way valve, which are connected in series in sequence;

illustratively, one end of the dc converter is connected to one end of the water pump, the other end of the dc converter is connected to one end of the in-vehicle charger, the other end of the in-vehicle charger is connected to one end of the power supply, the other end of the power supply is connected to one end of the heater PTC, and the other end of the heater PTC is connected to the f port of the first three-way valve.

Among them, an On Board Charger (OBC). Typically a low power charger. The charging method comprises vehicle-mounted wired charging and vehicle-mounted wireless charging. A direct current converter (DCDC) is a device that converts electric energy of one voltage value into electric energy of another voltage value in a direct current circuit. The dc converter and the vehicle charger may release a lot of heat during use. PTC is a PTC heater for short, and is a heating device designed by utilizing the constant temperature heating characteristic of a constant temperature heating PTC thermistor.

And the battery temperature monitoring module is connected with the vehicle control unit, monitors the temperature of the power supply in the battery loop, and sends the monitored temperature to the vehicle control unit.

And the vehicle control unit controls corresponding ports of the first three-way valve, such as an f port and a d port of the first three-way valve, to be opened when the temperature of the power supply is lower than a first temperature threshold value or a battery heating demand signal is received, so that heat generated by the vehicle-mounted charger and the direct current converter during operation is used for heating the power supply.

In a preferred embodiment of practical application, the direct current converter, the vehicle-mounted charger and the power supply are connected in series in the same loop, and the vehicle control unit controls the opening of the corresponding interface of the first three-way valve under the action of the temperature monitoring module when the power supply needs to be heated, so that heat generated by the operation of the direct current converter and the vehicle-mounted charger can be heated for the power supply through the opening port of the first three-way valve, the utilization rate of waste heat energy is improved, the use of the heater is further reduced, and the cruising range of a vehicle is ensured. The waste heat recovery is that the waste heat generated by the driving motor and power electronics is not completely utilized to heat the vehicle battery system or the air conditioning system, compared with the scheme that the existing battery system or the air conditioning system is independently heated, the waste heat recovery of the electric driving system is realized, the driving range of the vehicle is increased to a certain extent, and the energy utilization efficiency of the new energy automobile is improved.

In some embodiments, the vehicle control unit controls the heater to work to provide heat for the power supply when the temperature of the power supply is lower than a first temperature threshold or a battery heating demand signal is received.

In some embodiments, a corresponding temperature reduction device may be employed to avoid over-temperature of the power supply, reducing battery life, the battery circuit further includes a water pump and a battery cooler, the first three-way valve includes a first port d, a second port e, and a third port f; illustratively, the first port d of the first three-way valve is connected with one end of a battery cooler, and the other end of the battery cooler is connected with the other end of the water pump;

and the vehicle control unit controls the second port and the third port of the first three-way valve to be opened and controls the water pump and the battery cooler to work when receiving a power supply temperature higher than a second temperature threshold or a battery cooling demand signal, so that the water pump and the battery cooler are cooled for the power supply.

In some embodiments, in order to maintain the battery at the optimum working temperature range for a long time, the battery is kept at the optimum working temperature range, and the excessive temperature or the excessive cooling of the battery is avoided by adding a three-way valve and an energy storage device and optimizing the design of a loop. When the battery is in the overcooling/overheating state, the cooling liquid does not pass through the power battery assembly by adjusting the three-way valve, and redundant cold energy/heat energy can be collected into the energy storage device for recycling. The battery loop further comprises an energy storage device, one end of the energy storage device is connected with the first port of the first three-way valve, and the other end of the energy storage device is respectively connected with the power supply and the vehicle-mounted charger;

when the vehicle control unit monitors that the temperature of the power supply meets a target temperature range, a first port and a second port of a first three-way valve are controlled to be opened; the target temperature range may include 34-36 degrees, and the target temperature range may be set according to actual conditions such as the current season.

The energy storage device stores heat from the on-board charger and the dc converter or cold from the battery cooler.

For example, when the battery temperature is higher than 35 ℃ in winter or no heating is needed, the first three-way valve port flowing to the battery loop is closed, redundant heat is flowed to the energy storage device, and the battery is preferentially supplied from the heat storage device when the battery is needed.

In order to recover and utilize the heat in the system in multiple orders, the embodiment of the invention focuses on the design of a system loop from the aspect of thermal management of the battery on loop optimization, so that the condition of supercooling and overheating of the battery is avoided, meanwhile, the residual heat/cold energy of supercooling and overheating is recovered through an energy storage device, and when the refrigeration/heating requirements exist, the energy recovered in the energy storage device is preferentially used. Therefore, the heat utilization rate of the whole system and the service life of the battery are improved, and the endurance mileage of the electric vehicle is further improved.

In some embodiments, the vehicle control unit is further configured to control the first port and the third port of the first three-way valve to be opened when the temperature of the power supply is lower than a first temperature threshold or a battery heating demand signal is received, so that the power supply is heated by the heat stored in the energy storage device;

alternatively, the first and second electrodes may be,

and the vehicle control unit is also used for controlling the first port and the third port of the first three-way valve to be opened when the temperature of the power supply is higher than the second temperature threshold value or the battery cooling demand signal is received, so that the cold energy stored in the energy storage device cools the power supply.

In the practical application process, because the use scenes of slow charging of the battery are more and the battery is charged for a long time at night most of the time, the direct current converter and the vehicle-mounted charger are connected in series in the battery loop, when the battery needs to be heated during charging, the first three-way valve d is adjusted to be communicated with the port f, the port e side passage is closed, the heat of the direct current converter and the vehicle-mounted charger is received and matched with the heater for use, the battery is heated, the use power of the heater is reduced, and the energy consumption is reduced.

And after the temperature of the battery reaches the target temperature, in order to avoid over-temperature/over-cooling of the battery, the first three-way valve is adjusted to pass through the ports d and e, the port f is closed, and redundant heat/cold flows through the energy storage device to store energy. When the battery has heating/refrigerating requirements, the opening proportion of the three-way valve d and the opening proportion of the opening f are adjusted, and the cold quantity/heat quantity in the energy storage device is preferentially supplied to the power battery for use, so that the use frequency of the compressor and the battery cooler or heater can be reduced, and the energy consumption of the whole vehicle is reduced.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2, the system further includes an electric drive circuit, an air conditioning circuit, a four-way valve, and a second three-way valve coupled to the four-way valve;

and the vehicle control unit is also used for controlling the opening of corresponding ports of the four-way valve and the second three-way valve and supplying the heat or cold generated by the electric driving loop to the air conditioning loop or the battery loop.

According to the frequent use of the waste heat utilization of an electric drive system (comprising a motor, an inverter, a DC/DC and the like), the positions of the DCDC and the OBC in the system are optimized, the DCDC and the OBC are arranged in a battery loop, the generated heat is recycled, and the energy utilization rate of the system is improved.

The air conditioning loop comprises a blower 14, a warm air core 16 in an air conditioning box, a high-pressure PTC 17, a third water pump 19, a second stop valve 15 and the like. The electric driving loop is used for converting the energy of a power battery into the kinetic energy of wheels under the control of a driver, and comprises a motor of a vehicle, a controller and the like, wherein the core device of the electric driving loop is the motor, and the electric driving loop in the embodiment of the invention mainly adopts a liquid cooling mode and comprises a motor radiator 1, an electronic cooling fan 2, a three-in-one integrated assembly 13, a water temperature sensor 3, a first water pump 4, a first stop valve 12 and other parts. The heat management of the electric driving loop mainly depends on a cooling water pump to drive cooling liquid in the electric driving loop to circularly flow in a cooling pipeline, and the cooling liquid takes away heat generated by the motor and the controller through physical processes such as heat exchange and the like in the motor radiator 1, so that the heat management circulation of the electric driving loop is realized.

The battery circuit includes a battery cooler 20, a second water pump 7, a four-way valve 5, a dc converter 6, an on-vehicle charger 8, a heater 10, an energy storage device 9, a second three-way valve 18, a first three-way valve 21, and a power source 11.

In the invention, the direct current converter, the vehicle-mounted charger and other parts are connected in series in the battery loop, when the battery is charged (especially in winter), the direct current converter and the vehicle-mounted charger can generate a large amount of heat (generally called as waste heat) in the charging process, and at the moment, the second water pump 7 is started to be matched with the first three-way valve 21 for use, so that the heat is distributed to the battery. Specifically, when the battery needs to be heated, a port i and a port j of the four-way valve 5 are communicated, the water flows through the second three-way valve 18 through the second water pump 7 and is opened through a port b and a port c, the first three-way valve 21 is opened through a port d and a port f, and the battery is heated through the power battery; if the residual heat is insufficient, the heater 10 needs to be started to match the utilization of the residual heat in the whole system, so that the use of the heater 10 is reduced as much as possible. When the demand for battery heating is not high, the first three-way valve 21 is adjusted, and this part of the heat flows through the energy storage device 9 for energy storage, thereby avoiding excessive heating of the battery. When heat is needed again in the system, the flow ratio of the port e and the port f of the three-way valve of the first three-way valve 21 is adjusted, and the part of heat of the energy storage device is released to the battery loop, so that the purpose of heating the battery is achieved.

Similarly, when the battery is cooled, the second water pump 7 and the battery cooler 20 are started, and after the battery is cooled to the target temperature of the battery, the first three-way valve 21 opens the port d and the port e, so that the redundant cold energy in the whole system loop is stored in the energy storage device. When the power battery has a cooling demand again, the cold energy in the energy storage device 9 is preferentially used, so that the temperature of the battery is prevented from being too cold as much as possible, the service life loss of the battery is reduced, the opening of the killer is reduced, the use energy consumption of the whole vehicle is reduced, and the endurance mileage is prolonged. By analogy, the loop with the energy storage device can be used for recovering the waste heat of the motor loop to heat the battery loop.

In some embodiments, the heat or cold of the electric drive loop may be used to provide heating or cooling to the battery. The vehicle control unit is also used for controlling the second port h of the four-way valve, the third port i of the four-way valve, the third port c of the second three-way valve and the second port b of the second three-way valve to be opened when the temperature of the power supply is lower than a first temperature threshold value or a battery heating demand signal is received, and supplying heat generated by the electric driving loop to the battery loop;

alternatively, the first and second electrodes may be,

and the vehicle control unit is also used for controlling the second port h of the four-way valve, the third port i of the four-way valve, the third port c of the second three-way valve and the second port b of the second three-way valve to be opened when the temperature of the power supply is higher than a second temperature threshold value or a battery cooling demand signal is received, and supplying the cold energy generated by the electric driving loop to the battery loop.

In some embodiments, the heat or cold from the electric drive circuit may be used to provide heating or cooling to the air conditioning circuit. The vehicle control unit is also used for controlling the second port h of the four-way valve and the third port i of the four-way valve, the first port a of the second three-way valve and the second port b of the second three-way valve to be opened when receiving the heating demand signal of the air conditioner, and supplying the heat generated by the electric driving loop to the air conditioning loop;

In some embodiments, heat or cooling from the electric drive circuit may be provided to the energy storage device when neither the battery circuit nor the air conditioning circuit have a corresponding demand. When the vehicle control unit monitors that the temperature of the power supply meets a target temperature range, the second port h of the four-way valve, the third port i of the four-way valve, the third port c of the second three-way valve, the second port b of the second three-way valve, the first port d of the first three-way valve and the second port e of the first three-way valve are controlled to be opened, and heat or cold generated by the electric driving loop is supplied to the energy storage device.

Illustratively, the embodiment of the invention can also be used for utilizing the waste heat of the electric driving loop, communicating the port h in the four-way valve 5 with the port i to utilize the waste heat of the electric driving loop, and then controlling the second three-way valve 18 to open the port b and the port a or the port b and the port c to realize the waste heat distribution of the electric driving loop, so as to heat the air conditioner or the battery, controlling the first three-way valve 21 to control whether the electric driving heat is utilized by the air conditioner, when the battery system and the air conditioner system do not have the heating requirement, controlling the second three-way valve 18 and the first three-way valve 21 to make the heat of the electric driving loop flow through the energy storage device 9 to store the corresponding heat, when the battery has the corresponding heat requirement, switching the communication direction of the four-way valve 5 to drive the second water pump 7 to work, preferentially using the heat stored in the energy storage device to heat the battery correspondingly, therefore, the maximum utilization of the electric driving waste heat in the whole system is realized.

The energy storage device is added in the embodiment of the invention, the device not only can recover heat generated by the vehicle-mounted charger and the direct current converter in the battery loop, but also can recover heat in the electric drive loop, and the part of recovered heat can be used for heating or preserving heat of the battery.
