The thermal management device 100 includes a heat transfer component 110 and a thermal control component 120.
The heat transfer assembly 110 is disposed between the adjacent two battery modules 20.
The heat control assembly 120 is connected to the heat transfer assembly 110, and the heat control assembly 120 controls the heat transfer assembly 110 to raise or lower temperature.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, the heat transfer assembly 110 performs temperature transfer by a thermally conductive liquid flowing therein. In this embodiment, the heat conductive liquid may be water.
Referring to fig. 2, in one implementation of the present embodiment, the heat transfer assembly 110 includes a hollow heat conducting plate 111 and a liquid conduit 112 disposed in the hollow heat conducting plate 111 in a detour manner. The hollow heat-conducting plate 111 is attached to two adjacent battery modules 20 to absorb heat from the battery modules 20 or transfer heat to the battery modules 20.
The liquid conduit 112 includes a liquid inlet 1121 and a liquid outlet 1122, and the liquid inlet 1121 and the liquid outlet 1122 are respectively connected to the thermal control assembly 120. After being heated or cooled by the thermal control assembly 120, the heat-conducting liquid is injected into the liquid conduit 112 through the liquid inlet 1121, flows through the liquid conduit 112, and transfers the temperature to the hollow heat-conducting plate 111. The heat-conducting liquid flows back from the liquid outlet 1122 to the thermal control assembly 120 for reheating or cooling.
It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, fig. 2 is only a schematic diagram of the arrangement of the liquid conduits 112 according to the present embodiment, the number and the detouring manner of the liquid conduits 112 are not limited to the number and the detouring manner shown in fig. 2, and a plurality of liquid conduits 112 and different detouring manners may be arranged. When the plurality of liquid conduits 112 are provided, the liquid inlets 1121 and the liquid outlets 1122 of the plurality of liquid conduits 112 may be provided at different positions, so that the heat-conducting liquid flows in different liquid conduits 112 are different, and the effect of further equalizing the temperature is achieved.
Referring to fig. 3, in another implementation manner of the present embodiment, the heat transfer assembly 110 includes a hollow heat-conducting plate 111, a plurality of liquid separators 113 are disposed in the hollow heat-conducting plate 111, the liquid separators 113 divide the inner cavity of the hollow heat-conducting plate 111 into a plurality of liquid channels 114, and the plurality of liquid channels 114 make the liquid flow around the inner cavity of the hollow heat-conducting plate 111. The hollow heat-conducting plate 111 is attached to two adjacent battery modules 20 to absorb heat from the battery modules 20 or transfer heat to the battery modules 20.
The liquid channel 114 includes a liquid inlet 1141 and a liquid outlet 1142, and the liquid inlet 1141 and the liquid outlet 1142 are respectively connected to the thermal control assembly 120. After being heated or cooled by the thermal control assembly 120, the heat-conducting liquid is injected into the liquid channel 114 through the liquid inlet 1141, flows through the liquid channel 114, and transfers the temperature to the hollow heat-conducting plate 111. The heat-conducting liquid flows back from the liquid outlet 1142 to the thermal control assembly 120 for reheating or cooling.
