Detailed Description
Examples
As shown in fig. 1 to 4, the multi-way valve heat management system comprises a heat exchanger 1, a motor electric control cooling device 2, a condenser 4, a water heating PTC5, a warm air core 6 and a power battery pack 7.
The heat exchanger 1, the motor electric control cooling device 2, the condenser 4, the water heating PTC5, the warm air core 6 and the power battery pack 7 are all connected with the multi-way valve through flow passage plates to form a loop for circulating cooling liquid;
the multi-way valve comprises at least one movable valve core, and the communication or closing among a plurality of pipelines is switched through the movable valve core;
the multi-way valve at least comprises a movable valve core for switching the pipelines to the following states:
the motor electric control cooling device 2 is connected with the multi-way valve in series to form a motor electric control branch circuit 10;
the heat exchanger 1 is connected with a multi-way valve in series to form a heat exchanger branch 13;
the power battery pack 7 is connected with the multi-way valve in series to form a battery branch 11;
the condenser 4, the water heating PTC5, the warm air core 6 and the multi-way valve are connected in series to form a passenger cabin heating branch 12;
the motor electric control branch circuit 10, the battery branch circuit 11 and the heat exchanger branch circuit 13 are mutually communicated through a multi-way valve to form a first loop;
the passenger compartment heating branch 12 alone forms a second circuit, which is isolated from the first circuit.
The application of the invention reduces the number of parts of the thermal management system by improving the integration level of the cooling liquid loop and comprehensively managing the scattered thermal management system to reduce the energy waste.
Furthermore, in the invention, the heat exchanger 1, the electric motor control cooling device 2 and the power battery pack 7 are connected in series to form a first loop, so that heat among the three can be balanced, and redundant heat in the electric motor control cooling device 2 and the power battery pack 7 can be absorbed through the heat exchanger 1. The second loop is formed separately from the first loop by the passenger compartment heating branch 12, so that the heat correlation between the passenger compartment heating branch 12 and the first loop is reduced, and the temperatures of the two loops are mutually independent.
In practical applications, the heat exchanger 1 is usually a plate heat exchanger, and a flow passage for a cooling liquid and a flow passage for a refrigerant are usually provided in the heat exchanger 1, so that the heat exchanger 1 mainly performs heat exchange between the cooling liquid and the refrigerant. The condenser 4 is usually an indirect condenser in practical application, and has four ports, i.e. I-COND, two ports being used for passing the cooling fluid and being connected to a circuit through which the cooling fluid flows; the other two ports are used to pass the refrigerant and are connected to the circuit through which the refrigerant flows. The water heating PTC5 plays a role in heating the cooling liquid. The cooling liquid exchanges heat with the air through the warm air core 6.
In some embodiments, a first proportional three-way valve 15 is provided between the passenger compartment heating branch 12 and the multi-way valve for distributing the flow of coolant in the bypass pipe 16 in the passenger compartment heating branch 12.
In some embodiments, the motor electric control branch 10 is provided with a second proportional three-way valve 17, and the low-temperature radiator 3 and the short-circuit bypass which are arranged in parallel are arranged between the motor electric control cooling device 2 and the second proportional three-way valve 17. The low-temperature radiator 3 mainly plays a role in heat dissipation. The low-temperature radiator 3 is connected in parallel with a short-circuit bypass controlled by a second proportional three-way valve 17, and the flow of the corresponding cooling liquid in the low-temperature radiator 3 and the short-circuit bypass is distributed through the second proportional three-way valve 17. When the cooling liquid flows through the low-temperature radiator 3, the second proportional three-way valve 17 is in a closed state; when the coolant passes through the short bypass without passing through the low-temperature radiator 3, the second proportional three-way valve 17 is in an open state.
When the movable valve core of the multi-way valve switches a plurality of pipelines to the state, the multi-way valve thermal management system can realize 3 working conditions, which are respectively:
working condition 1, heating or dehumidifying of the passenger cabin, weak cooling of the power battery pack 7 and transmission of electric control waste heat of the motor to the passenger cabin.
Working condition 2, heating or dehumidifying of the passenger cabin, power battery pack 7 and electric motor controlled waste heat recovery.
And 3, refrigerating the passenger cabin, weakly cooling the power battery pack 7, and cooling the motor electrically.
As shown in fig. 2, specifically, in the condition 1:
in the working condition 1, the second proportional three-way valve 17 is in a closed state, and the cooling liquid flows through the low-temperature radiator 3.
In the first loop, when the heat exchanger 1 works, the battery branch 11 and the heat exchanger branch 13 are connected in series with the electric motor control branch 10 to form the first loop, the power battery pack 7 in the battery branch 11 is in a weak cooling state, the electric motor control branch 10 carries out indirect waste heat recovery on the passenger cabin, in this state, the power battery pack 7 is in weak cooling requirement, and therefore the low-temperature radiator 3 is utilized for heat dissipation, and the electric motor control cooling device 2 also needs indirect waste heat recovery, so that heat is required to be brought to the condenser 4 positioned in the passenger cabin through the refrigerant loop in the heat exchanger 1.
In the first loop, when the heat exchanger 1 does not work, heat generated by the motor electric control cooling device 2 and the power battery pack 7 is radiated through the low-temperature radiator 3, and at the moment, the heat exchanger 1 is only used as a circulation pipeline of cooling liquid, and the cooling liquid and the refrigerant cannot be subjected to heat exchange, so that the heat cannot be brought into a passenger cabin. In this operating state, the operation of the other components than the motor electric control branch 10 is the same as the first circuit when the heat exchanger 1 is operated, except whether the heat exchanger 1 brings heat to the passenger cabin or not, and whether the waste heat generated by the motor electric control branch 10 can be indirectly recovered by the passenger cabin or not.
The passenger cabin heating branch 12 in the second loop forms a second loop independent loop operation through a bypass pipe 16 controlled by a first proportional three-way valve 15, and the second loop formed by the passenger cabin heating branch 12 heats or dehumidifies.
The operation of the passenger compartment heating branch 12 is divided into two operating states:
(1) In the heating state of the heat pump, in the passenger cabin heating branch 12, the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant from the compressor enters the condenser 4, in the condenser 4, the refrigerant releases heat to be a medium-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant to flow out, the cooling liquid absorbs heat, the cooling liquid with raised temperature flows through the water heating PTC5 (at the moment, the water heating PTC5 only serves as a pipeline to realize circulation without temperature regulation) and enters the warm air core 6, under the action of the blower, the heat in the cooling liquid is released into the passenger cabin through the warm air core 6, the cooling liquid flowing out of the warm air core returns to the cooling liquid circulating water pump 8 through the V1V2 channel of the proportional three-way valve and enters the next circulation;
(2) In the water heating state, when the ambient temperature is reduced and the heating efficiency of the heat pump is reduced, the water heating PTC5 is required to be started at the same time, so that the cooling liquid in the passenger cabin heating branch 12 is heated to the target temperature, and the heating requirement of the passenger cabin is ensured.
Dehumidification of the passenger compartment of the vehicle can be realized in the second loop, the dehumidification needs to be started simultaneously with refrigeration and heating, and the refrigeration principle is as follows: the refrigerant flowing through the evaporator 9 absorbs heat in the passenger cabin through the evaporator 9, so that the cooling effect is achieved. The passenger cabin is heated by the condenser 4 to cool the liquid, and then the warm air core 6 is used for radiating the heat of the passenger cabin, and the aim of dehumidification can be achieved by heating and refrigerating simultaneously.
Referring to fig. 3, specifically, in condition 2:
in the working condition 2, the second proportional three-way valve 17 is in an open state, and the coolant passes through the short-circuit bypass without passing through the low-temperature radiator 3.
In the first loop, the heat exchanger 1 works, and the heat exchanger 1 exchanges heat between the heat generated by the electric motor control cooling device 2 and the power battery pack 7 through a cooling liquid pipeline and a refrigerant pipeline in the electric motor control cooling device, so that the heat is transferred to the condenser 4 arranged in the passenger cabin through the refrigerant loop, and heating of the second loop is assisted. Since the heat in the first circuit is recovered by the heat exchanger 1, the low-temperature radiator 3 is not required for heat dissipation. The second loop passenger compartment heating branch 12 heats or dehumidifies in the same manner as in condition 1.
Referring to fig. 4, specifically, in condition 3:
in the first loop, the heat exchanger 1 does not work, the power battery pack 7 in the battery branch 11 is in a weak cooling state, the electric motor control cooling device 2 in the electric motor control branch 10 can only be in a cooling working state, and the weak cooling of the power battery pack 7 and the cooling of the electric motor control cooling device 2 are completed through the low-temperature radiator 3. In the second circuit, the coolant does not flow through the second circuit, and cooling or blowing is performed in the passenger compartment by the evaporator 9 provided in the passenger compartment and the blower.
In certain embodiments, the multi-way valve includes a C1 interface, a C2 interface, a C3 interface, a C4 interface, a C5 interface, a C6 interface, a C7 interface, and a C8 interface;
the C1 interface and the C2 interface are respectively connected with the outlet and the inlet of the passenger cabin heating branch 12;
the C3 interface and the C4 interface are respectively butted with an inlet and an outlet of the battery branch 11;
the C5 interface and the C6 interface respectively correspond to the inlet and the outlet of the heat exchanger branch 13;
the C7 interface and the C8 interface respectively correspond to an inlet and an outlet of the motor electric control branch circuit 10;
wherein the C8 interface and the C3 interface are communicated with each other, the C6 interface and the C7 interface are communicated with each other, and the C4 interface and the C5 interface are communicated with each other;
the C1 interface and the C2 interface are completely closed from the outlet and inlet of the passenger compartment heating branch 12.
In some embodiments, the C1 interface and the C2 interface are mutually communicated, so that the multi-way valve can be in butt joint with more loops in the existing environment, and the application scene of the multi-way valve is expanded, so that the thermal management system of the application can adapt to different system requirements.
In some embodiments, the electric control cooling device 2 and the low-temperature radiator 3 of the motor connected end to end are connected with a pipeline connected with the multi-way valve, and the condenser 4, the water heating PTC5 and the warm air core 6 which are connected in sequence are connected with the pipeline connected with the multi-way valve, and the pipeline connected with the multi-way valve by the power battery pack 7 is provided with a cooling liquid circulating water pump 8.
Specifically, a coolant circulating water pump 8 is disposed at the water inlet side of the power battery pack 7, and is used for providing power for the circulation of coolant in the battery branch 11; a cooling liquid circulating water pump 8 is arranged at the water inlet side of the motor electric control cooling device 2 and is used for providing power for cooling liquid circulation in the motor electric control branch circuit 10; a coolant circulation pump 8 is provided at the water inlet side of the condenser 4, and functions to power the coolant in the passenger compartment heating circuit 12.
Referring to fig. 5, in some embodiments, a circuit through which refrigerant flows is provided between the heat exchanger 1 and the condenser 4;
so that the heat exchange of the heat exchanger 1 and the condenser 4 is heat transfer by the refrigerant and the cooling liquid. When the passenger cabin heating loop 12 is in a passenger cabin heating or dehumidifying working condition, heat is from the condenser 4, and if the heat is insufficient, the water heating PTC5 works to heat the cooling liquid in the passenger cabin heating branch circuit so as to meet the requirement of warm air;
the refrigerant transfers the carried heat to the coolant of the passenger compartment heating circuit 12 through the condenser 4.
When heat is to be dissipated by the condenser 4, heat needs to be absorbed from another place, and the heat exchanger 1 serves as an outdoor heat exchanger, and may absorb a certain amount of heat from the cooling liquid. In the battery loop, if excessive heat is carried away by the cooling liquid in the battery pack, the refrigerant absorbs the heat through the heat exchanger 1, so that the temperature of the cooling liquid in the loop is reduced.
Further, by providing the refrigerant circuit between the heat exchanger 1 and the condenser 4, waste heat recovery of the heat exchanger 1 can be achieved, and when there is excessive heat in the heat exchanger branch 13 where the heat exchanger 1 is located, heat can be transferred to the condenser 4 located in the passenger compartment heating branch through the refrigerant circuit, and heat transfer and circulation can be promoted more.
As shown in fig. 5, in some embodiments, the circuit through which the refrigerant flows is further provided with an evaporator 9 and an outdoor heat exchanger 14. Specifically, the evaporator 9 is located inside the passenger compartment, and the outdoor heat exchanger 14 is located outside the passenger compartment. The refrigerant circuit shown in fig. 5 enables heating or cooling of the passenger compartment.
The refrigerant loop heats the passenger cabin by heating the condenser 4, and the working principle is as follows:
1. the heat exchanger 1 absorbs the heat in the heat exchanger branch 13 to the refrigerant loop, and can transfer the heat to the condenser 4 in the passenger cabin heating branch 12;
2. the outdoor environment warms the condenser 4, and the outdoor heat exchanger 14 transfers heat to the condenser 4 through the refrigerant circuit by absorbing the temperature of the external environment.
The refrigerating of the passenger cabin by the refrigerant loop is realized by cooling the evaporator 9, and the working principle is as follows: the refrigerant flowing through the outdoor heat exchanger 14 enters the evaporator 9, the evaporator 9 absorbs heat from the environment to evaporate the refrigerant, and the evaporator 9 is located in the passenger compartment, thereby realizing the cooling of the passenger compartment.
