[0035] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments made by those skilled in the art according to the inspiration of the embodiments of the present application are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0036] The terms "first", "second", "third", "fourth" and the like (if any) in the specification and claims of the present application and the above drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and do not necessarily have to be used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data thus used can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "include" and "have" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, for example, a process, method, system, product or device including a series of steps or units does not have to be limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but can include other steps or units not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

Controlling each cooling and heating unit separately would make temperature control extremely complex, and could even lead to logical errors in the control of components within the system, making temperature control difficult to achieve. Furthermore, very few new energy vehicles are currently equipped with energy storage systems; therefore, there is currently no reasonable temperature control method for vehicle thermal management systems with energy storage systems.

[0041] Based on the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical conception process of this application is as follows: How to provide a temperature control method for a vehicle thermal management system with energy storage, which enables the vehicle thermal management system to operate in a temperature control mode suitable for the current environment and driving conditions.

[0157] When the battery temperature reaches the target required battery temperature and the coolant temperature at the battery cooler outlet reaches the target required coolant temperature, exit the current cold storage mode or heat storage mode.

[0158] Specifically, in thermal storage mode, the target required temperature for the battery is 30°C, and the target required temperature for the battery circuit coolant is 40°C; in cold storage mode, the target required temperature for the battery is 15°C, and the target required temperature for the battery circuit coolant is 5°C.

After the status check, the thermal management system performs an initialization reset, which restores each component to its preset initial position before entering standby mode.

[0161] The automotive thermal management system receives a temperature control request and, based on the sender's identifier, obtains the associated temperature information. Then, based on the temperature control request and the associated temperature information, it determines whether temperature control should be applied to the battery, passenger compartment, and / or electric drive module. If temperature control is determined for the battery, passenger compartment, and / or electric drive module, a matching temperature control mode is obtained, and appropriate temperature control processing is performed within that mode.

[0162] After entering the matched temperature control mode, the refrigerant circuit, coolant circuit, and air conditioning are controlled separately. Specifically, the control of the refrigerant circuit includes controlling the compressor speed, controlling the on / off state of each shut-off valve, and controlling the opening degree of each electronic expansion valve, so that each component in the refrigerant circuit performs corresponding actions to operate the matched temperature control mode, and exits the corresponding actions when the temperature control mode is ready to be exited.

[0163] Specifically, the control of the coolant circuit includes the control of the power of the electric drive module, the control of the speed of the electric drive circuit water pump and the speed of the battery circuit water pump, the on / off control of the four channels of the four-way water valve and the on / off and opening degree control of each three-way water valve, so that each component in the coolant circuit performs corresponding actions to run the matching temperature control mode, and exits the corresponding action when the temperature control mode is exited.

[0164] Specifically, the control of the air conditioner includes the control of the rotation speed of the air blower and the control of the opening of the mixed damper, so that each component in the air conditioning system performs corresponding actions to run a matched temperature control mode, and exits the corresponding actions when the exit condition of the temperature control mode is met.
