Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power batteries, and in particular to a thermal management dual system and a control method using a refrigerant for direct cooling and direct heating. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy industry, the demand for new energy vehicles is increasing, and the demand for power batteries is also increasing. Therefore, battery swap stations are set up one after another, and each battery swap station has multiple battery packs. When these batteries are charged, in order to improve their charging efficiency and reduce heat loss, the battery cell temperature during charging will be controlled within a certain range.

[0003] To ensure that the battery cell temperature is within an appropriate range when charging, the normally high-temperature circulating fluid in the cold plate is heat exchanged with the low-temperature refrigerant in the air-conditioning system to obtain a lower-temperature circulating fluid; the lower-temperature circulating fluid in the cold plate is heat exchanged with the high-temperature refrigerant in the air-conditioning system or with the heater to obtain a normally high-temperature circulating fluid, and the obtained lower-temperature or normally high-temperature circulating fluid enters the battery cold plate for secondary heat exchange with the battery, and is used to meet the cooling or heating requirements required to control the battery cell temperature when charging the battery.

[0004] The thermal management system equipped in each battery swap station is configured according to the maximum load required by the battery of this battery swap station. However, in reality, when only one battery pack is charging, the thermal management system also needs to run to meet the battery cell temperature. At this time, the load is very low. Even if the thermal management system is reduced to minimum capacity, it is still far greater than the load, so this will lead to a situation where a big horse is pulling a small cart. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the inventors conducted in-depth research and completed the present invention after paying a lot of creative work.

The additional heat exchange increases energy loss, and the efficiency of using a heater to heat the circulating fluid from a low temperature to a normal high temperature is only about 80%. That is, 1kW of electrical energy only obtains 0.8kW of thermal energy, and 0.2kW of energy is consumed. There is only one battery pack to charge, and the load is low, which will cause the liquid refrigerant to return to the compressor after the thermal management system is running, resulting in liquid hammer; the lubricating oil cannot return to the oil chamber in time, resulting in poor lubrication of the compressor.

[0042] The input end of the No. 3 battery pack inlet temperature probe is fixedly connected to the output end of the No. 2 one-way valve, the battery pack outlet temperature probe and the No. 1 one-way valve through a pipeline, and the output end of the battery pack outlet temperature probe is fixedly connected to the output end of the No. 3 group of normally closed battery solenoid valves through a pipeline.

[0043] The output end of the inlet battery pack temperature probe is fixedly connected to the input ends of battery pack No. 1, battery pack No. 2 and battery pack No. 3 through pipes, the output end of battery pack No. 1 is fixedly connected to the input end of battery solenoid valve No. 1 through a pipe, the output end of battery pack No. 2 is fixedly connected to the input end of battery solenoid valve No. 2 through a pipe, the output end of battery pack No. 3 is fixedly connected to the input end of battery solenoid valve No. 3 through a pipe, and the output ends of battery solenoid valve No. 1, battery solenoid valve No. 2 and battery solenoid valve No. 3 are fixedly connected to the input end of the outlet battery pack temperature probe through a pipe.

[0044] When in use, low-temperature refrigerant or high-temperature refrigerant directly enters the heat exchange plate of the battery pack to exchange heat with the battery cells in the battery pack. Heat exchange is no longer performed through other intermediate media, reducing heat loss.

[0045] A thermal management control method using direct cooling and heating of refrigerant, any one of the thermal management methods using direct cooling and heating of refrigerant, if the battery has cooling or heating requirements, the system determines whether there is a fault, when the system determines that there is a fault, the fault is reset, when the system determines that there is no fault, when the battery pack value N of the cooling requirement is greater than or equal to 12, system one and system two operate at the same time, when the battery pack value N of the cooling requirement is less than 12, the cumulative operating time of system one and system two is compared, and the system with the shorter cumulative operating time is started.

[0046] When the direct cooling control system is running, the heat pipe system determines whether there is a fault. When the heat pipe system determines that there is a fault, the fault is reset. When the heat pipe system has no fault, the outlet temperature is set to 18 degrees Celsius, and the number three group of normally closed solenoid valves are opened to start the heating management system. The compressor performs PID control according to the target temperature T: the low-temperature electronic expansion valve is controlled according to △T=0, and the dead zone is 0.5 for PID control. When the heat absorption: 1≤T﹤7 degrees Celsius and maintained for three minutes or T<one degree for thirty seconds, the high-temperature electronic expansion valve is opened, the number two group of normally closed solenoid valves are opened, and the suction superheat T=8, dead zone 1, is installed for PID control. When the heat absorption: 1≥T﹥7 degrees Celsius and maintained for three minutes or T>one degree for thirty seconds, the status quo is maintained.

[0047] When in use, when the battery pack has a cooling demand, when the battery pack has a cooling demand, it is determined whether to open one system or two systems according to the number of battery packs required. The refrigerant is compressed by the compressor to a high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas that enters the air-cooled condenser for condensation, and becomes a normal temperature and high-pressure refrigerant liquid that passes through the filter and enters the low-temperature electronic expansion valve for throttling, and enters the heat exchange plate of the battery pack to exchange heat with the battery pack cells. If only the No. 1 heat pipe system 1 is opened at this time, the No. 1 high-temperature electronic expansion valve remains closed, and the No. 3 group of normally closed solenoid valves remains open. If only the No. 2 heat pipe system 2 is opened, the No. 2 high-temperature electronic expansion valve remains closed, and the No. 3 group of normally closed solenoid valves remains open. Taking the No. 1 heat pipe system 1 as an example, in order to ensure the uniformity of the temperature of each battery cell in the battery pack, the required inlet temperature of the battery pack is 18°C, and the outlet temperature of the battery pack also needs to meet 18°C. This requires that the refrigerant liquid entering the heat exchange plate is a gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant liquid after completing the latent heat exchange with the battery pack. In this way, the temperature of the inlet and outlet of the battery pack can be 18℃. Compressor No. 1 compares Tactual with TTarget and adjusts PID to ensure the supply of cooling capacity. Low-temperature electronic expansion valve No. 1 controls the opening change through the temperature difference between Tin and Tout △T=0, dead zone=0.5. Since the refrigerant out of the battery pack is in a gas-liquid two-phase state, it cannot be directly sucked into compressor No. 1, so it is necessary to open the normally closed solenoid valve No. 2 at this time, and use the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas at the exhaust end to throttle and reduce the pressure through the high-temperature electronic expansion valve No. 1 to become a high-temperature and normal-pressure refrigerant gas and mix it with the two-phase refrigerant out of the battery pack, and then become a refrigerant gas at normal temperature and pressure and enter the compressor. High-temperature electronic expansion valve No. 1 obtains the suction superheat through the suction temperature Tsuction-suction pressure corresponding to the saturation temperature Tsuction Saturation, and controls it to ensure that the state of the refrigerant sucked into compressor No. 1 is gas.

[0048] When the direct heating control system is started, the heat pipe system determines whether there is a fault. When the heat pipe system determines that there is a fault, the fault is reset. When the heat pipe system has no fault, the outlet temperature is set to 50 degrees, the number one group of normally closed solenoid valves and the number three group of normally closed solenoid valves are opened, the heating management system is turned on, the compressor is PID controlled according to the target temperature T, and the high-temperature electronic expansion valve is PID controlled according to the return air pressure of 1000kpa and the dead zone of 100kpa.

[0049] During use, when the battery pack has a heating demand, the thermal management system starts in heating mode. Taking the No. 1 heat pipe system 1 as an example, the No. 1 group of normally closed solenoid valves is opened, and the No. 1 low-temperature electronic expansion valve is closed. The high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas at the outlet of the No. 1 compressor is throttled and reduced in pressure through the branch No. 1 high-temperature electronic expansion valve to become a high-temperature and normal-pressure refrigerant gas. The high-temperature and normal-pressure refrigerant gas enters the heat exchange plate and exchanges sensible heat with the battery pack to meet the heating needs of the battery. The No. 1 compressor compares the T actual and T target, and adjusts the PID to ensure the supply of heat. The No. 1 high-temperature electronic expansion valve throttles and reduces the pressure of the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas into a high-temperature and normal-pressure refrigerant gas, and controls the opening of the electronic expansion valve through the return gas pressure detection pressure value, and controls the return gas pressure at about 1000kpa.
