Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of liquid cooling for charging piles, and is a mineral oil-based charging pile coolant and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, as a green means of transportation, new energy electric vehicles have been vigorously promoted. With the rapid popularization of electric vehicles, consumers require the convenience of using electric vehicles, and the demand for rapid charging of electric vehicles is becoming stronger and stronger. Choosing high-power charging technology can shorten the charging time. However, during the rapid charging process of charging piles, the heat generated is so large that if it is not dissipated in time, it will cause extremely serious safety accidents, and the demand for efficient thermal management is more urgent.

[0003] High-power charging technology is the trend of development. Adopting high-power super-fast charging technology, the equipment has a high energy density and a fast temperature rise. The traditional air-cooling method can no longer meet the heat dissipation requirements. At present, using the liquid-cooling method for high-power charging piles is an effective solution. The liquid-cooling method includes cold plate liquid cooling and immersion liquid cooling, and immersion liquid cooling is more efficient than cold plate liquid cooling. During the operation of the charging pile, the surface temperature of the charging cable is high. Using a charging pile coolant with good antioxidant properties and stable performance can extend the service life of the charging pile coolant and improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the charging pile.

[0004] At present, regarding the status quo of charging pile coolants in China, the coolants are mainly oils, water, aqueous solutions of propylene glycol or ethylene glycol, etc. Water, aqueous solutions of propylene glycol or ethylene glycol are non-insulators, and no insulation requirements are imposed on oils either. Therefore, the cooling method adopts indirect cooling by cold plates. Since the working voltage of high-power charging piles is as high as 1000V, once leakage occurs, it will cause fatal damage to the equipment. For example, the Chinese patent document with the publication number CN217902783U discloses a liquid-cooled charging cable for a charging pile, and the coolant used in its liquid-cooled charging cable for a charging pile is water cooling. The Chinese patent document with the publication number CN216659606U discloses a liquid-cooled charging pile. In its cooling circulation loop, the first coolant uses oil, water, air, propylene glycol or ethylene glycol, etc., and the first driving source uses a pump body. The Chinese patent document with the publication number CN216817914U discloses a new type of liquid-cooled charging pile cable, and the method adopted by it is cold plate liquid cooling. The Chinese patent documents with the publication numbers CN114596991A and CN113539550A adopt the same method of cold plate liquid cooling. The existing charging pile coolants all adopt non-insulating coolants, and the cooling method mostly adopts cold plate liquid cooling. Cold plate liquid cooling transfers heat through heat conduction, and has the disadvantages of slow cooling response, low cooling efficiency and high working energy consumption.
