Embodiment Construction

[0032] The invention relates to a thermal management system using a multi-zone radiator. For example, the heat sink may include a first area having a first fan coverage area and a second area including a second fan coverage area different from the first fan coverage area. The first area may supply a coolant of a first temperature to the battery pack, and the second area may supply a coolant of a second temperature to another vehicle component. These and other features will be discussed in more detail in this specific embodiment.

[0033] figure 1 A power transmission system 10 for an electric vehicle 12 such as an HEV is schematically shown. Although described as HEV, it should be understood that the concept described here is not limited to HEV and can be extended to other electrified vehicles, including but not limited to PHEV, BEV, fuel cell vehicles or any other alternative fuel vehicles or use multiple heat sinks Of the vehicle.

[0034] In one embodiment, the power transmis...

Abstract

A heat sink according to an exemplary aspect of the present invention includes a first region including a first fan footprint and a second region including a second fan footprint different from the first fan footprint, among others.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to thermal management systems, and more specifically, but not exclusively, to thermal management systems for electric vehicles including multi-zone radiators. Background technique [0002] Electrified vehicles, such as hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV), pure electric vehicles (BEV), or fuel cell vehicles, are different from conventional engine vehicles in that they replace internal combustion engines Or in addition to internal combustion engines, they are driven by one or more electric motors (ie electric motors and / or generators). The high-voltage current used to power the motor is usually supplied by a high-voltage traction battery pack. [0003] Many electrified vehicles include thermal management systems that manage the thermal requirements of various components during vehicle operation. Generally, a thermal management system includes several individual heat exchangers, and the individu...
