Definitions

  • a vehicle thermal management system pertains to the systems for engine cooling, system for heating and cooling of the driving battery of a vehicle, and the air-conditioning system with several operating modes of air-conditioning of the passenger compartment, i.e. the system that provides cooling, heating, and dehumidifying of the space within the passenger compartment of the vehicle, and belongs to combined systems for heating and cooling, which operate in alteration or simultaneously, and also belongs to devices for circulation of cooling means which use ducts, as well as to the layout or instalment of the devices for heating, cooling or airing/refreshing the air in vehicle passenger compartments .
  • the vehicle thermal management system according to the present invention is aimed at obtaining a novel system for vehicle thermal management with a new structure and layout of the system elements, which will simplify the setup of the system such that it will be realised using a shared cycle of the refrigerant, without switching valves for topology alternation of the refrigerant flow, at the same time enhancing the overall efficiency, reliability, and safety of the system.
  • the engine is cooled by heat exchange with the coolant flow, which is discharged by the coolant pump, flows through the engine, the heat exchanger for heating, and the radiator, back to the coolant pump.
  • the radiator is equipped with a temperature sensitive valve, so that the heat exchange between the coolant and the environment is enabled only when the heating temperature is above a certain level. This allows for the waste heat of the engine to be used for heating the air that enters the passenger compartment, by exchanging the heat at the heat exchanger for heating.
  • the system for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) of the passenger compartment of the vehicle contains an internal heat exchanger and a heating heat exchanger placed inside the internal air flow, with the heating heat exchanger placed in a part of the air flow after the internal heat exchanger.
  • the air stream of the internal air flow which originates from the environment, or from the passenger compartment, or is formed by mixing the air from these two sources, is first cooled in the internal heat exchanger to the dew-point in order to eliminate moisture from it.
  • the distributor of the air flow divides the air stream of the internal air flow into two air streams, one of which is heated in the heating heat exchanger, while the other bypasses the heating heat exchanger, and the two air streams are, after passing through the flow mixer, led into the vehicle passenger compartment (cabin) as a single stream: the air stream entering the passenger compartment is a mixture of both air streams, the heated air stream and the air stream that bypasses the heating heat exchanger. Therefore, the temperature of the air stream fed into the vehicle cabin can be controlled by altering the relative quantity of the heated air stream in the total air flow.
  • the internal heat exchanger of the HVAC system is at the same time placed into the refrigerant circuit, formed by discharging the refrigerant from the discharge outlet of the compressor and its circulation from the external heat exchanger (condenser), adjustable expansion valve, internal heat exchanger (evaporator) and accumulator back to the compressor.
  • the coolant cycle and the refrigerant circuit are thermally coupled by placement of the condenser immediately behind the radiator, so that the environmental air first exchanges the heat with the coolant flowing through the radiator, and then exchanges heat with the refrigerant in the external heat exchanger. This coupling is an inevitable consequence of the lack of space in the engine compartment of the vehicle, and inability to separate the condenser and the radiator, but has a negative impact on the efficiency of the refrigerant circuit.
  • a particular problem is the safety of the hybrid and electrical vehicles associated with the malfunction of the thermal management system. Due to low mass of the propulsion assembly relatively to the waste heat it produces, a failure of the thermal management system can result in practically immediate overheating and failure of the vehicle propulsion. Therefore, the thermal management system for hybrid and electrical vehicles must ensure a safe and reliable cooling of the propulsion engine and electronic assembly. This was not the case for the internal combustion vehicles, where the large thermal mass of the propulsion system guaranteed sufficient time for the driver to react.
  • this solution introduces a significant number of additional components into the system.
  • the temperature control of the vehicle battery is achieved by an additional flow of the coolant, in which an additional pump is included, an additional electric heater for pre-heating of the battery, and an additional refrigerant circuit for its cooling.
  • a practical realisation of this system needs an additional electrical heater for heating the air that is fed into the passenger compartment.

  • the managed vehicle systems, heat-pump source, heat-pump sink, battery, and waste heat sources (propulsion engine and propulsion electronic assembly) are placed into independent parallel flows of the coolant.
  • Two switching subsystems ensure the alteration of the coolant flow topology, in a way that enable each of the parallel coolant flows to be fed into one of the coolant cycles.
  • this system is significantly simpler than the conventional systems for thermal management, it still has high complexity.
  • the two switching subsystems comprise a large number of valves, and malfunction of any one of them results to a complete malfunction of the system.
  • a particular shortcoming of this system is the topology with parallel flows of the coolant, where it is extremely hard to ensure a controlled flow through all parallel branches in every operating mode. Because of this, it can happen that the branch with the propulsion engine and the propulsion electronic assembly receives insufficient coolant flow for adequate cooling, resulting in their malfunction. Beside reduced reliability, such a situation represents a serious safety risk for passengers and the vehicle itself.

Abstract

Le système de gestion thermique de véhicule selon la présente invention concerne le système qui assure le refroidissement des sources de chaleur perdue (20x), l'échange de chaleur entre les systèmes de véhicule gérés (10x) (où x = 1, 2, etc. n), ainsi qu'un équilibrage thermique du véhicule par échange de chaleur avec l'environnement, indépendamment des systèmes de véhicule gérés ou des températures d'environnement. Le système de gestion thermique de véhicule comprend un circuit de fluide frigorigène (1), un chemin d'écoulement de fluide caloporteur chaud (4), un chemin d'écoulement de fluide caloporteur froid (5), un sous-système d'échange de chaleur (2), et un sous-système de sélection de mode de fonctionnement (3). Les systèmes de véhicule gérés (10x) sont thermiquement (Q) accouplés au circuit de fluide frigorigène (1), de telle sorte qu'ils échangent de la chaleur avec celui-ci. Lorsque le mode de fonctionnement émission est choisi en tant que mode de fonctionnement du système de gestion thermique de véhicule, le sous-système de sélection de mode de fonctionnement (3) dispose le sous-système d'échange de chaleur (2) dans le chemin d'écoulement de fluide caloporteur chaud (4), ce qui permet à l'excès de chaleur provenant des systèmes de véhicule gérés, collecté dans l'écoulement de fluide caloporteur chaud, d'être échangé avec l'environnement. Inversement, lorsque le mode de fonctionnement absorption est choisi en tant que mode de fonctionnement du système de gestion thermique de véhicule, le sous-système de sélection de mode de fonctionnement (3) dispose le sous-système d'échange de chaleur (2) dans le chemin d'écoulement de fluide caloporteur froid (5), ce qui permet au manque de chaleur dans les systèmes de véhicule gérés (10x) d'être échangé de l'environnement vers l'écoulement de fluide caloporteur froid. En variante, lorsque le mode de fonctionnement sécurité est choisi en tant que mode de fonctionnement du système de gestion thermique de véhicule, un écoulement de fluide caloporteur est établi et maintenu par le biais du sous-système d'échange de chaleur (2) séparément du chemin d'écoulement de fluide caloporteur chaud (4) et du chemin d'écoulement de fluide caloporteur froid (5).
