Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a dual-cooling battery pack for new energy vehicles and a cooling method thereof, belonging to the technical field of batteries for new energy vehicles. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, new energy vehicles have achieved rapid development, especially electric vehicles. Electric vehicles are vehicles that are driven by electric motors and the driving electricity comes from an on-board rechargeable energy storage system. Compared with conventional internal combustion engine vehicles, electric vehicles do not produce exhaust gas and there is no exhaust gas pollution, which is very beneficial to environmental protection.

[0003] Batteries are the power source of electric vehicles, and their performance is directly related to the working condition of the vehicle. Batteries generate a lot of heat during the charging and discharging process. If this heat cannot be discharged and released in time, it will directly affect the battery's safety, charging and discharging capacity and efficiency, cycle life and other performance, and thus affect the working performance of the entire vehicle. Moreover, since batteries usually need to be arrayed in groups to meet the needs of automobile use, the consistency of battery pack temperature is also an important guarantee for the normal performance of the battery. If the battery cooling system cannot effectively dissipate the heat in a timely and uniform manner, it will cause inconsistent temperature distribution of the battery pack, which will aggravate the internal resistance and capacity inconsistency of the battery, have a negative impact on the service life, and even bring serious safety hazards.

[0004] In order to prevent battery thermal runaway, electric vehicles currently use battery thermal management technology to ensure the uniform temperature of the battery pack and prevent the occurrence of local high-temperature areas that would cause the battery performance to decay too quickly. As users' expectations for the range of electric vehicles become higher and higher, the energy density of the battery pack (battery pack) also increases, and the heat dissipation increases. The traditional air cooling method can no longer meet the heat dissipation needs of the battery pack, and thus it is transformed into the currently common indirect liquid cooling method. By arranging cooling plates at the bottom or around the battery pack, heat exchange between the battery and the coolant is achieved, which has a certain effect on improving the consistency of the battery pack temperature field. However, due to the limitation of the battery pack energy density, the cooling structure design of the battery pack is subject to certain limitations. How to ensure the structural strength of the battery pack while giving the battery pack a better cooling structure design has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved.
