The heat pipe is connected with a liquid circulation device, the liquid circulation device transfers heat to the semiconductor refrigeration assembly, and the heat is dissipated by the semiconductor refrigeration assembly. The scheme has the advantages of complex structure, inconvenient maintenance, higher cost, more connection points for connecting a plurality of heat pipes with the liquid circulating device, and easy occurrence of the problems of untight connection and increased thermal resistance.
Patent CN207602734U discloses a power battery thermal management system, and specific scheme is that the battery box is the individual layer barrel, uses the battery to soak in paraffin, uses heat pipe heating semiconductor refrigeration subassembly to assist the refrigeration simultaneously, and cabinet body inside disposes heat preservation and flame retardant coating. According to the scheme, the heat pipe is inserted into the phase-change material, and the semiconductor refrigeration assembly is used for refrigerating the phase-change material, so that the battery is cooled indirectly.
