Description

Flexible heat exchange piece and battery pack heat dissipation device adopting same
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of electric vehicle battery thermal management, and particularly relates to a flexible heat exchange piece and an electric vehicle battery cooling device adopting the same.
Background
The power battery is used as the only energy source of the pure electric vehicle, the performance of the power battery directly influences the performance of the whole vehicle, the temperature is one of the main factors influencing the performance of the battery, and the performance of the battery is attenuated when the temperature is too high or too low. When the power battery is used, a large number of monomers need to be connected in series and parallel to meet the energy and power requirements of the whole vehicle. Meanwhile, the battery can generate a large amount of heat in the charging and discharging process, if the structural arrangement of the battery in the battery pack is poor and the heat dissipation performance is poor, the heat in the battery pack can be continuously accumulated during charging and discharging, so that the temperature of the battery can be continuously increased, and even thermal runaway can be caused; meanwhile, if the automobile scrapes or collides with the outside, the battery can be extruded or punctured, short circuit occurs inside the battery, a large amount of heat is generated in a short time, and the battery burns or explodes, so that the safety of the whole automobile is threatened.
The increase of the heat exchange area and the heat exchange coefficient is an effective means for increasing the heat exchange quantity of the water cooling plate. The heat exchange amount is a key factor for determining the performance of the water cooling plate, and experiments and theories prove that the heat exchange amount can be effectively increased by increasing the heat exchange area, the flow of the secondary refrigerant in the water cooling plate is reduced, the operating power of the system is further reduced, and the cost is reduced. The expression of the differential equation for thermal conductivity is:
Figure BDA0002404089730000011
the heat transfer and heat exchange quantity by convection is as follows:
Φ=hAΔt(2)
simplified thermal conductivity resistance:
Figure BDA0002404089730000012
simplified heat resistance for convective heat transfer:
Figure BDA0002404089730000021
thus, the overall amount of heat exchange can be expressed as:
Figure BDA0002404089730000022
as can be seen from the formula (5), the heat exchange amount of the water-cooling plate is closely related to the heat exchange area and the heat transfer temperature difference. However, the conventional water-cooling plate adopts a secondary refrigerant flow channel formed by punch forming, so that the heat exchange area is small, the distance of the flow channel is long, the heat transfer temperature difference of the rear half part of the flow channel is small, and the heat dissipation result is not ideal.
The Reynolds number is calculated by the formula:
Figure BDA0002404089730000023
the heat transfer coefficient calculation formula can be expressed as:
Figure BDA0002404089730000024
the existing heat dissipation structure is low in heat exchange performance, independent installation space is needed, and installation requirements are high. According to the needs of the industry, more reliable, small, light in weight fills little heat exchanger, along with the development of electric automobile trade, has bigger development space.
