Abstract
The application provides a heat management system and a vehicle. The heat management system comprises an indoor heat exchange assembly, a refrigerant circuit, a cooling liquid circuit and a switching device. The indoor heat exchange assembly comprises a fan, an indoor heat exchanger and a warm air heat exchanger arranged side by side. The outlet of the compressor is connected to the inlet of the first water-cooled heat exchanger. The outlet of the first water-cooled heat exchanger is connected to the first end of the first throttling device. The second end of the first throttling device is connected to the inlet of the indoor heat exchanger. The outlet of the indoor heat exchanger is connected to the inlet of the compressor. The cooling liquid circuit comprises a first cooling liquid circuit and a second cooling liquid circuit. The first cooling liquid circuit and the second cooling liquid circuit are connected to the switching device. The first cooling liquid circuit is selectively connected to the second cooling liquid circuit through the switching device. The first cooling liquid circuit comprises an engine. The second cooling liquid circuit passes through the warm air heat exchanger and the first water-cooled heat exchanger. The energy utilization rate of the heat management system is improved.
