[0045] Example 1

[0046] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a thermal management device for an energy cabinet according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the thermal management device includes: a compressor, a cabinet condenser, and a battery core cooling heat exchanger connected in sequence; and also includes:

[0047] The external condenser is connected in parallel with the internal condenser and is arranged outside the energy cabinet;

[0051] Considering the need to observe the temperature of the battery cells in the energy cabinet at any time and not to be too high, the thermal management device is provided with a battery cell BMS, which is arranged at the battery cells of the energy cabinet to detect the battery cell temperature. The battery cell cooling heat exchanger is also arranged at the battery cell to achieve cooling of the battery cell. Considering the coordinated control of temperature and humidity in the energy cabinet, the thermal management device also includes: a temperature sensor, which is arranged inside the energy cabinet, for detecting the temperature inside the energy cabinet; a humidity sensor, which is arranged inside the energy cabinet, for detecting the humidity inside the energy cabinet. The controller is used to control the actions of the first valve, the second valve, the third valve, and the fourth valve according to the temperature inside the cabinet, the humidity inside the cabinet, and the battery cell temperature.

[0052] In this embodiment, an external condenser is arranged outside the energy cabinet, and a dehumidification evaporator is arranged inside the cabinet. When condensation occurs, dehumidification is performed through the dehumidification evaporator, and the battery core temperature is cooled when the battery core temperature is too high, and the cabinet temperature is cooled when the ambient temperature inside the cabinet is too high. The coordinated control of battery core cooling, internal ambient temperature, and humidity is achieved to avoid condensation, reduce energy consumption loss of the thermal management device, improve efficiency, and enhance overall sealing.

[0053] This embodiment also provides an energy cabinet, wherein the energy cabinet includes the thermal management device of the energy cabinet introduced above.

[0054] Example 2

[0055] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an embodiment of a thermal management control method for an energy cabinet is provided. The thermal management control scheme is applied to the thermal management device of the energy cabinet introduced above. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in an order different from that shown here.

[0056] Figure 2 is a flow chart of a thermal management control method for an energy cabinet according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0057] Step S201, detecting the temperature inside the energy cabinet, the humidity inside the cabinet, and the battery core temperature;

[0058] Specifically, the temperature inside the cabinet can be detected by a temperature sensor; the humidity inside the cabinet can be detected by a humidity sensor; and the battery cell temperature can be detected by a battery cell BMS. The temperature sensor and humidity sensor can be installed in the center of the top plate inside the cabinet, or on the side plate inside the cabinet, or considering that the battery cell is the core component of the energy cabinet, it can also be installed on the top plate where the battery cell is located. The specific installation position can be adjusted according to actual conditions and needs.

[0059] Step S202, controlling the actions of the first valve, the second valve, the third valve, and the fourth valve according to the temperature inside the cabinet, the humidity inside the cabinet, and the temperature of the battery cell.

[0060] An external condenser is arranged outside the energy cabinet, and a dehumidification evaporator is arranged inside the cabinet. In this embodiment, dehumidification is performed through the dehumidification evaporator when condensation occurs, the battery core is cooled when the battery core temperature is too high, and the cabinet is cooled when the ambient temperature inside the cabinet is too high. The coordinated control of battery core cooling, internal ambient temperature, and humidity is achieved to avoid condensation and reduce the energy consumption of the thermal management device.

[0061] Since the cabinet is a closed space, external moisture may enter the cabinet when the door is opened. During the operation of the energy cabinet, this moisture may condense on important precision electronic components in the cabinet, causing device damage. Therefore, the moisture in the cabinet is condensed into water and discharged from the cabinet through the cabinet dehumidification state. Based on this, this embodiment provides a preferred implementation method, that is, when the cabinet temperature, cabinet humidity and battery cell temperature meet the preset condensation conditions, the opening of the first valve is reduced, and the openings of the second valve and the fourth valve are increased to enter the dehumidification state.

[0062] When monitoring the condensation state in the cabinet, this embodiment monitors according to the cabinet temperature, cabinet humidity and battery core temperature. Specifically, the cabinet temperature, cabinet humidity and battery core temperature meet the preset condensation conditions, including: the cabinet humidity exceeds the preset humidity value and shows an upward trend; and the cabinet temperature is lower than the preset temperature value and shows a downward trend; and / or the battery core temperature is lower than the cabinet temperature. When the above three parameters meet the above conditions, it can be determined that dehumidification is currently required, so as to avoid the continued generation of condensation in other important electronic device parts, so that the moisture in the cabinet is concentrated on the dehumidification evaporator to condense into water, and then collected through the water receiving tray and discharged from the energy cabinet. After a period of time, the humidity in the cabinet decreases, and the dehumidification state can be exited. That is, after entering the dehumidification state, continue to detect the cabinet temperature, cabinet humidity and battery core temperature. If the cabinet temperature, cabinet humidity and battery core temperature no longer meet the preset condensation conditions, then exit the dehumidification state. Thereby avoiding condensation in the energy cabinet.

[0063] The battery cell BMS can collect the battery cell temperature in real time. When the battery cell temperature exceeds the preset safety temperature (for example, 40°C), the battery cell cooling state is started, that is, when the battery cell temperature ≥ the preset safety temperature, the opening of the third valve is increased to enter the battery cell cooling state. The ability of the battery cell cooling heat exchange is increased. When the battery cell temperature is lower than the preset safety temperature, the controller can be operated to reduce the opening of the regulating valve K3, that is, after entering the battery cell cooling state, the battery cell temperature continues to be detected. When the battery cell temperature is lower than the preset safety temperature, the battery cell cooling state is exited and the opening of the third valve is reduced. This reduces the cooling demand and energy consumption of the energy cabinet.

[0064] If the ambient temperature inside the energy cabinet is too high, it will affect the life of the electronic components, so it is necessary to control the ambient temperature inside the cabinet. Based on this, this embodiment provides a preferred implementation method, that is, when the temperature inside the cabinet is ≥ the preset ambient temperature (for example, 35°C), the second valve is adjusted down, the first valve and the fourth valve are adjusted up, and the cabinet cooling state is entered. The heat inside the cabinet is pumped outside the cabinet by the compressor. More refrigerant flows through the condenser outside the cabinet to bring the heat outside the cabinet. After entering the cabinet cooling state, continue to detect the temperature inside the cabinet. If the temperature inside the cabinet is lower than the preset ambient temperature, exit the cabinet cooling state. It should be noted that if the temperature inside the cabinet is too high and exceeds the preset ambient temperature by a lot, that is, the temperature difference between the temperature inside the cabinet and the preset ambient temperature exceeds the preset temperature difference, the second valve can be controlled to be directly closed, thereby bringing more heat to the outside of the cabinet, achieving rapid cooling inside the energy cabinet, and protecting the safety and performance of the electronic components in the energy cabinet.

[0065] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the valve opening can be adjusted (increased or decreased) by a single adjustment according to a preset adjustment opening, or by gradual and multiple adjustments according to a preset adjustment opening. Alternatively, the corresponding adjustment opening is determined according to the size of the temperature difference, and the adjustment is performed according to the adjustment opening.

[0066] Example 3

[0067] Figure 3 is a logic flow chart of the thermal management control solution of the energy cabinet according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 3 As shown, the process includes:

[0068] Step 1: Collect the temperature T and humidity R inside the energy cabinet.

[0069] Step 2: Since the cabinet is a closed space, external moisture may enter the cabinet when the door is opened. During the operation of the energy cabinet, this moisture may condense on important precision electronic components in the cabinet, causing damage to the components. Therefore, the moisture in the cabinet is actively condensed into water and discharged from the cabinet through the dehumidification state in the cabinet. When the temperature sensor and humidity sensor detect that condensation may occur (the temperature and humidity conditions enter the condensation range), the control operation is to close the opening of the regulating control valve K1 and open the opening of the regulating control valves K2 and K4 to avoid condensation in other important electronic components. The moisture in the cabinet is concentrated on the dehumidification evaporator and condensed into water, which is collected through the water receiving tray and discharged from the cabinet. After a period of time, the humidity in the cabinet decreases and the dehumidification state can be exited.

[0070] Step 3: The cell BMS collects the cell temperature in real time. When the cell temperature exceeds the set value, the cell cooling state is started, and the controller operates to open the regulating valve K3 to increase the cooling heat exchange capacity of the cell, and the cell cooling state is operated. When the cell temperature is lower than the set value, the controller can be operated to reduce the opening of the regulating valve K3 to reduce the cooling demand and energy consumption.

[0071] Step 4: If the temperature in the energy cabinet is too high, it will affect the life of electronic components, so it is necessary to control the ambient temperature in the cabinet. When the temperature sensor detects that the temperature in the cabinet is greater than the set value, the cabinet enters the cooling state, and the controller closes the regulating valve K2 and opens the regulating valves K1 and K4 to pump the heat in the cabinet to the outside through the compressor.

[0072] It should be noted that the execution order of the above steps 2-4 is not limited to Figure 3 As shown, the control operations of the three steps can be executed simultaneously, or can be executed in sequence according to a priority order.
