AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, the performance testing of water-cooled plates requires the installation of batteries for whole-pack testing, resulting in excessively long testing cycles. Furthermore, air cooling methods cannot meet the heat dissipation requirements of high-energy-density lithium batteries.
A performance test bench for water-cooled plates in electric vehicles was designed, including a coolant circuit and a refrigerant circuit. It is combined with a heat pump air conditioning system, a low-temperature radiator cooling system, and a data acquisition and control system. Heating and cooling switching is achieved through a four-way valve and a plate heat exchanger. Pressure drop and flow resistance are measured by sensors, and the flow rate is controlled by a water pump. Data acquisition and control are performed using LabVIEW software.
This technology enables rapid and accurate testing of water-cooled plate performance at low cost, shortens the testing cycle, simulates real electric vehicle operating conditions, improves testing efficiency and accuracy, and supports research on battery thermal management system control methods.
