[0033] The air cooling heat exchanger 10 and the liquid cooling heat exchanger 2 and the connection relationship of the related structures not described in detail in the embodiment adopt products or structures well known to those skilled in the art, and the connection relationship also adopts the existing connection mode well known to those skilled in the art, which will not be described in detail here.
[0034] The control of the air cooling heat exchanger 10 and the liquid cooling heat exchanger 2 in the embodiment adopts the existing control mode well known to those skilled in the art, which will not be described in detail here.
[0035] As shown in the figure, Figure 1 Under normal temperature conditions, the cold working medium inlet 7 and the cold working medium outlet 5 are closed, the fan 8 is started, the hot working medium outlet 6 and the hot working medium inlet 12 are opened; the hot working medium enters the hot working medium inlet pipe box 11 from the hot working medium inlet 12, is heated after passing through the working medium side flow channel 19 of the air cooling heat exchanger 10, enters the distribution pipe box 14, then flows through the sheet interchannel 16 of the liquid cooling heat exchanger 2 and enters the hot working medium outlet pipe box 1, and finally flows out through the hot working medium outlet 6; the normal temperature air is heated after passing through the air side flow channel 18 of the air cooling heat exchanger 10 and is discharged by the fan 8.
[0036] In the condition of high air temperature, such as in a fire, the cold working medium inlet 7 and the cold working medium outlet 5 are opened, the fan 8 is closed, and the hot working medium outlet 6 and the hot working medium inlet 12 are kept open. The hot working medium enters the hot working medium inlet pipe box 11 from the hot working medium inlet 12, enters the distribution pipe box 14 through the working medium side flow channel 19 of the air-cooled heat exchanger 10, then flows through the inter-plate channel 16 of the liquid-cooled heat exchanger 2 to release heat, enters the hot working medium outlet pipe box 1, and finally flows out through the hot working medium outlet 6. The cold working medium enters the cold working medium inlet pipe box 4 from the cold working medium inlet 7, absorbs heat through the inter-plate group channel 17 of the liquid-cooled heat exchanger 2, enters the cold working medium outlet pipe box 3, and finally flows out through the cold working medium outlet 5.
[0037] In this embodiment, the working medium side flow channel 19 of the air-cooled heat exchanger 10 is connected to the distribution pipe box 14 through the working medium flow channel interface 15.

[0038] In this embodiment, each plate group unit of the liquid-cooled heat exchanger is composed of two plate pieces. The plate pieces are buckled with each other and are staggered by a distance of 0.5L1 in the width direction. Thus, a continuous wave-shaped inter-plate channel is formed in the width direction between the two plate pieces, and the working medium flowing through the channel forms a wave flow, which can enhance the heat exchange effect. On both sides in the length direction, the plate pieces are closed by welding. Two plate group units are buckled with each other in the length direction to form an inter-plate group channel 17. The two plate group units are closed by welding on both sides in the width direction.
[0039] In this embodiment, the air flows through the heat exchanger 10 through the channel 18, and the hot working medium flows through the heat exchanger 10 through the channel 19. In the hot working medium channel, the working medium forms a wave flow and intermittently expands and contracts, which enhances the heat exchange efficiency. In the air channel, the air flow also forms a wave flow and intermittently expands and contracts, which also enhances the heat exchange effect on the air side. In addition, the addition of the grooves together with the rib plates increases the heat exchange area, so that the structure of the heat exchanger is more compact.
[0040] In this embodiment, the air-cooled heat exchanger and the liquid-cooled heat exchanger are combined to form an integrated air-liquid dual-purpose heat exchanger, which meets the different heat dissipation requirements in normal temperature conditions and high temperature conditions (such as in a fire), and has the advantages of compact structure and good heat dissipation effect.

Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present application belong to the scope of the claims of the present application and their equivalent technologies, the present application also intends to include these modifications and variations.
