Among them, the first heat exchanger 110 is integrated with a liquid storage tank.

[0043] A flow channel is provided inside the flow channel plate 110. The compressor 120 is arranged on one side of the flow channel plate 110; the first heat exchanger 130 is arranged on the other side of the flow channel plate 110; the inlet of the first heat exchanger 130 is aligned with and connected to the outlet of the compressor 120. The second heat exchanger 140 is arranged in parallel with the first heat exchanger 130 on the same side of the flow channel plate 110, and the outlet of the second heat exchanger 140 is aligned with and connected to the inlet of the compressor 110.

[0044] The flow channel plate 110 is provided with a first flow channel opening 111 and a second flow channel opening 112 on one side corresponding to the first heat exchanger 130 and the second heat exchanger 140, respectively, and the first flow channel opening 111 and the second flow channel opening 112 are connected to the flow channel inside the flow channel plate 110. The first flow channel opening 111 is aligned with and connected to the outlet position of the first heat exchanger 130, and the second flow channel opening 112 is aligned with and connected to the inlet position of the second heat exchanger 140. The top of the flow channel plate 110 is provided with a third flow channel opening 113 and a fourth flow channel opening 114, and the third flow channel opening 113 and the fourth flow channel opening 114 are connected to the flow channel inside the flow channel plate 110. A charging valve 150 is installed on the third flow channel opening 113, and an expansion valve 160 is installed on the fourth flow channel opening 114.

[0045] In this embodiment, the flow channel plate 110 is in a Z-shape and is arranged to avoid the inlet and outlet of the compressor 120. The inlet of the first heat exchanger 130 and the outlet of the compressor 120 are connected to each other, and the outlet of the second heat exchanger 140 and the inlet of the compressor 110 are connected to each other without interference with the flow channel plate 110.

[0046] The outlet of the compressor 120 and the inlet of the first heat exchanger 130 are connected through the first joint 121; the first joint 121 is in the shape of a round tube, one end of the first joint 121 is connected to the compressor 120, and the outer edge of the other end is provided with a first square connecting plate 121a, and is connected to the first heat exchanger 130 through the first square connecting plate 121a. The first joint 121 and the compressor 120 are welded by friction welding, and the first square connecting plate 121a and the first heat exchanger 130 are connected by brazing.

[0047] The inlet of the compressor 120 and the outlet of the second heat exchanger 140 are connected through the second joint 122; the second joint 122 is in the shape of a round tube, one end of the second joint 122 is connected to the compressor 120, and the outer edge of the other end is provided with a second square connecting plate 122a, and is connected to the second heat exchanger 140 through the second square connecting plate 122a. The second joint 122 and the compressor 110 are welded by friction welding, and the second square connecting plate 122a and the second heat exchanger 140 are connected by brazing.

[0048] The friction welding connection method can ensure the sealing effect of the connection between the first joint 121, the second joint 122 and the compressor, and ensure the airtightness of the welding.

[0049] The first joint 121 is provided with a temperature and pressure sensor base in the circumference, and the first temperature and pressure sensor (high-pressure temperature and pressure sensor) 123 is installed on the temperature and pressure sensor base of the first joint 121. The second joint 122 is provided with a temperature and pressure sensor base in the circumference, and the second temperature sensor (low-pressure temperature and pressure sensor) 124 is installed on the temperature and pressure sensor base of the second joint 122.

[0050] The first flow channel opening 111 and the outlet of the first heat exchanger 130, and the second flow channel opening 112 and the inlet of the second heat exchanger 140 are connected by brazing. The liquid storage tank is formed by brazing the flange formed by stamping the heat exchanger plate. The refrigerant entering the first heat exchanger 130 enters the liquid storage tank after cooling, and flows out of the liquid storage tank into the first flow channel opening 111 of the flow channel plate 110. Figure 5As shown, in one embodiment, a first heat exchanger plate integrated with a liquid storage tank is provided. The liquid storage tank in the form of a plate forms a liquid storage cavity capable of accommodating refrigerant through a designed shape and structure, and can organically combine the water-cooled condenser and the liquid storage tank. When the plates are stacked together, a liquid storage cavity capable of accommodating refrigerant is naturally formed inside, thereby acting as a liquid storage tank, thereby realizing the integration of the first heat exchanger and the liquid storage tank.

[0051] The flow channel plate 110 and the first heat exchanger 130 , the flow channel plate 110 and the second heat exchanger 140 , and the flow channel plate 110 and the compressor 120 are positioned respectively by means of slots.

[0053] Refrigerant flows in the thermal management integrated module of new energy vehicles. The refrigerant enters the inlet of the compressor from the outlet of the second heat exchanger, enters the inlet of the first heat exchanger from the outlet of the compressor after being compressed by the compressor, enters the inlet of the liquid storage tank in the first heat exchanger after releasing heat in the first heat exchanger, enters the expansion valve through the flow channel plate from the outlet of the liquid storage tank, enters the inlet of the second heat exchanger through the flow channel plate after throttling by the expansion valve, and enters the compressor after absorbing heat in the second heat exchanger.

[0054] The new energy vehicle thermal management integrated module provided by the present invention has high space utilization and is highly integrated. There is no need to increase the layout space of the pipelines. Only a space equal to the thickness of the flow channel plate is added between the compressor and the two heat exchangers (the first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger). It is easy to install; it reduces the difficulty of the space layout of the whole vehicle and greatly reduces the system energy loss caused by the pressure drop of the pipeline; it reduces the process assembly links in the manufacturing process and improves the production efficiency; it also reduces the risk of refrigerant leakage to a certain extent and improves the system working efficiency.

[0055] The present invention also provides a control method for a new energy vehicle thermal management integrated module. Figure 6 As shown, the control method includes the following steps:

[0056] Step S100: Determine the thermal management working mode of the new energy vehicle.

[0057] Step S200: determining the load of the new energy vehicle thermal management integrated module according to the new energy vehicle thermal management working mode.

[0058] Step S300: Determine the working mode of the new energy vehicle thermal management integrated module according to the load condition of the new energy vehicle thermal management integrated module, and then control the speed of the compressor, the opening of the expansion valve and the flow rate of the coolant.

[0059] Specifically, in different application scenarios, the thermal management working mode is different. First, the thermal management working mode of the new energy vehicle is determined, and then the load of the thermal management integrated module of the new energy vehicle is determined based on the thermal management working mode, and then the speed of the compressor and the opening of the expansion valve are controlled to match the working state of the thermal management integrated module of the new energy vehicle with the specific application scenario.

[0060] Step S100 specifically includes:

[0061] Step S110, obtaining temperature values ​​collected by temperature sensors in the passenger compartment, battery, and electric drive.

[0062] Step S120, according to the temperature value collected by the temperature sensor, determine the thermal management working mode of the new energy vehicle. The thermal management working modes of the new energy vehicle include: passenger compartment cooling + electric drive cooling, electric drive cooling + battery cooling, passenger compartment cooling + electric drive cooling + battery cooling, passenger compartment heating + electric drive waste heat utilization, battery heating + electric drive waste heat utilization, passenger compartment heating + battery heating + electric drive waste heat utilization, passenger compartment heating + air source heat pump, battery heating + air source heat pump, passenger compartment heating + battery heating + air source heat pump, passenger compartment heating and dehumidification, outdoor radiator defrosting, etc. The judgment method of the thermal management working mode of the new energy vehicle is: when the temperature of the controlled object is higher or lower than the target temperature, it is considered that the controlled object needs to be heated or cooled. For example, if the passenger compartment temperature is lower than the passenger compartment target temperature, the thermal management working mode of the new energy vehicle is the passenger compartment heating mode.

[0063] Step S200 specifically includes:

[0064] Step S210, according to the thermal management working mode of the new energy vehicle, and the passenger compartment air volume, air inlet temperature, target air outlet temperature, battery coolant inlet temperature, battery coolant flow, electric drive coolant inlet temperature, electric drive coolant flow, determine the load conditions of the passenger compartment, battery, electric drive and other components according to the specific heat capacity formula.

[0065] Step S220: Determine the total load of each component based on the load of the passenger compartment, battery, electric drive and other components, and then determine the load of the new energy vehicle thermal management integrated module.

[0066] Step S300 also includes:

[0067] Step S310: Determine the working mode of the thermal management integrated module of the new energy vehicle (the speed of the compressor, the opening of the expansion valve and the flow rate of the coolant) according to the load condition of the thermal management integrated module of the new energy vehicle.

[0068] In this embodiment, the correspondence between the target heat exchange and the compressor speed and the expansion valve opening is first obtained through experiments, and then the compressor speed and the expansion valve opening corresponding to the load of the thermal management integrated module of the new energy vehicle are determined by calibrating the target heat exchange (the load of the thermal management integrated module of the new energy vehicle) and the compressor speed and the expansion valve opening.

[0069] For the coolant flow rate, firstly, the relationship between the target heat exchange and the coolant inlet temperature and the coolant flow rate is obtained through experiments. Secondly, the relationship between the target heat exchange and the coolant inlet temperature and the coolant flow rate obtained through experimental calibration is used to determine the flow rate on the coolant side of the current new energy vehicle thermal management integrated module.

[0070] Step S320: Control the speed of the compressor, the opening of the expansion valve and the flow rate of the coolant according to the determined working mode of the new energy vehicle thermal management integrated module.

[0071] The present invention also provides a vehicle-mounted terminal for implementing the control method of the new energy vehicle thermal management integrated module.

[0072] The vehicle terminal may include: a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor. When the processor executes the program, the control method of the new energy vehicle thermal management integrated module provided in the above embodiment is implemented.

[0073] Furthermore, the vehicle-mounted terminal also includes: a communication interface for realizing communication between the memory and the processor. The memory may include a high-speed RAM (Random Access Memory) memory, and may also include a non-volatile memory, such as at least one disk memory. If the memory, processor and communication interface are implemented independently, the communication interface, memory and processor can be interconnected through a bus and complete mutual communication. The bus can be an ISA (Industry Standard Architecture) bus, a PCI (Peripheral Component) bus or an EISA (Extended Industry Standard Architecture) bus, etc. The bus can be divided into an address bus, a data bus, a control bus, etc.

[0074] Specifically, if the memory, processor and communication interface are integrated on a chip, the memory, processor and communication interface can communicate with each other through an internal interface. The processor may be a CPU (Central Processing Unit), or an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), or one or more integrated circuits configured to implement the embodiments of the present application.

[0075] The specific implementation of the control method is further explained below in conjunction with specific embodiments and some operating conditions of a vehicle.
