[0052] As Figures 1-11As shown, the embodiment provides a sodium electric commercial energy storage cabinet based on phase change gravity heat pipe, which comprises a cabinet body 1, a supporting mechanism 2, a battery pack 3 and a cooling mechanism 4. The cabinet body 1 comprises a battery cabin 11, the supporting mechanism 2 is arranged in the battery cabin 11, a plurality of battery packs 3 are placed on the supporting mechanism 2 along the Z axis, and the cooling mechanism 4 comprises a plurality of cooling components 41 and a plurality of heat dissipation fins 42. Each battery pack 3 is provided with at least one cooling component 41, the cooling component 41 comprises an evaporation chamber 411 and a plurality of phase change gravity heat pipes 412, the evaporation chamber 411 contains phase change working medium, the two ends of the phase change gravity heat pipe 412 are communicated with the evaporation chamber 411, and the phase change gravity heat pipe 412 extends to one side of the supporting mechanism 2 along the X axis to the left or to the right. The phase change gravity heat pipe 412 has a first pipe segment 4121 and a second pipe segment 4122 with a height difference along the Z axis, and at least one heat dissipation fin 42 is arranged on the outer wall of the phase change gravity heat pipe 412 located on the same side of the supporting mechanism 2.
[0053] The cabinet body 1 provides mechanical support and structural framework for the entire sodium electric commercial energy storage cabinet. The cabinet body 1 comprises the battery cabin 11 for accommodating the battery pack 3 and the cooling mechanism 4. The supporting mechanism 2 is located inside the battery cabin 11 and directly bears and fixes a plurality of battery packs 3 stacked along the Z axis, ensuring that the plurality of battery packs 3 are stably and orderly stacked in the battery cabin 11. The battery pack 3 is the core unit of the sodium electric commercial energy storage cabinet and can store and release electric energy. It should be noted that the cabinet body 1 also comprises an electrical cabin for installing high-voltage boxes, PCS and other electrical equipment. The structure and arrangement of the electrical cabin refer to the sodium electric commercial energy storage cabinet in the prior art, and the embodiment is not limited in this regard.
[0054] For convenience of description, in the embodiment, the first pipe segment 4121 of the phase change gravity heat pipe 412 is defined as higher on the Z axis, and the second pipe segment 4122 of the phase change gravity heat pipe 412 is defined as lower on the Z axis.
[0055] The sodium electric commercial energy storage cabinet in the embodiment generates heat when working. Each battery pack 3 is provided with at least one cooling assembly 41. The heat generated by the battery pack 3 is conducted to the evaporation chamber 411 of the cooling assembly 41. The phase-change working medium in the evaporation chamber 411 absorbs the heat generated by the battery pack 3. Part of the heat is used to sublimate the phase-change working medium from a liquid state to a gaseous state. Another part of the heat is used to increase the temperature of the gaseous phase-change working medium. The gaseous phase-change working medium flows upward into the phase-change gravity heat pipe 412 and flows in the phase-change gravity heat pipe 412 under the push of the pressure difference. The gaseous phase-change working medium flows to the first pipe section 4121 and then continues to flow to the position of the phase-change gravity heat pipe 412 sleeved with the heat dissipation fins 42. The gaseous phase-change working medium transfers heat to the phase-change gravity heat pipe 412. The phase-change gravity heat pipe 412 transfers heat to the heat dissipation fins 42 sleeved on the outer wall. Since the heat dissipation fins 42 have a large heat dissipation area, the heat dissipation fins 42 can effectively and quickly perform convective heat exchange with the surrounding air to dissipate heat to the surrounding environment, so that the phase-change working medium is cooled and re-liquefied. The liquefied phase-change working medium flows back to the second pipe section 4122 under the action of gravity and then continues to flow into the evaporation chamber 411 to continue to participate in the next heat absorption, heat transfer and heat dissipation process, forming a circulating heat dissipation system and continuously dissipating heat for the battery pack 3.
[0056] Compared with the related air-cooled system and liquid-cooled system, the cooling mechanism 4 in the embodiment uses the evaporation and liquefaction process of the phase-change working medium to transfer heat. The phase-change process of the phase-change working medium can absorb a large amount of heat, quickly take away the heat generated by the battery pack 3, effectively reduce the temperature of the battery pack 3, and uniformly absorb the heat of the battery pack 3 to avoid local overheating. Through the combination of the phase-change gravity heat pipe 412 and the heat dissipation fins 42, the heat dissipation stability is better, the heat dissipation efficiency is higher, the vaporized phase-change working medium can be quickly liquefied and fall into the evaporation chamber 411, and the next round of heat dissipation for the battery pack 3 is performed. The cooling mechanism 4 realizes heat dissipation for the battery pack 3 through the combination of the evaporation chamber 411, the phase-change gravity heat pipe 412 and the heat dissipation fins 42. The structure is simple, and a complex cooling liquid conveying pipeline is not needed. The safety hidden danger caused by pipeline burst and other faults is reduced, the safety and service life of the battery pack 3 are improved, and then the safety and service life of the sodium electric commercial energy storage cabinet are improved.
[0057] It should be noted that the number of cooling mechanisms 4 provided on each battery pack 3 is not limited. As long as the area of the evaporation chamber 411 of the several cooling mechanisms 4 can cover the battery modules 32 placed in the battery pack 3, the battery modules 32 in the battery pack 3 can be ensured to be timely transferred to the evaporation chamber 411 of the cooling mechanism 4 when generating heat. Figure 4As shown, in the present embodiment, one cooling mechanism 4 is arranged on each battery pack 3, and the area of the evaporation chamber 411 of the cooling mechanism 4 is the same as the surface area of the top end face of the battery module 32.
[0058] In an alternative embodiment, the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 on the plurality of battery packs 3 extend leftward along the X axis to the left side of the support mechanism 2, and the outer walls of the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 are at least sleeved with one heat dissipation fin 42, and at this time, the heat dissipation fins 42 are arranged only on the left side of the support mechanism 2.
[0059] In another alternative embodiment, the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 on the plurality of battery packs 3 extend rightward along the X axis to the right side of the support mechanism 2, and the outer walls of the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 are at least sleeved with one heat dissipation fin 42, and at this time, the heat dissipation fins 42 are arranged only on the right side of the support mechanism 2.
[0060] In yet another alternative embodiment, the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 on part of the battery packs 3 extend leftward along the X axis to the left side of the support mechanism 2, and the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 on another part of the battery packs 3 extend rightward along the X axis to the right side of the support mechanism 2, and the outer walls of the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 on the left side are at least sleeved with one heat dissipation fin 42, and the outer walls of the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 on the right side are at least sleeved with one heat dissipation fin 42.
[0061] In the present embodiment, as shown, Figures 2-4 the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 are divided into two groups of phase-change gravity heat pipes, and the two groups of phase-change gravity heat pipes are distributed along the X axis with a spacing, the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 on the left side of the X axis extend leftward along the X axis to one side of the support mechanism 2, and the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 on the right side of the X axis extend rightward along the X axis to one side of the support mechanism 2. By dividing the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 into two groups of phase-change gravity heat pipes and extending the two groups of phase-change gravity heat pipes to the two sides of the support mechanism 2, respectively, the space on the two sides of the support mechanism 2 is fully utilized, and the space shortage and possible mutual interference caused by crowding all the phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 on one side are avoided, and it is also conducive to forming a smoother airflow channel around the phase-change gravity heat pipes 412, avoiding airflow channel obstruction caused by dense arrangement, and improving the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0062] Furthermore, as shown, Figure 4 the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 in the same group of phase-change gravity heat pipes are arranged along the Y axis with a spacing. The two groups of phase-change gravity heat pipes are distributed along the X axis with a spacing, and the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 in each group of phase-change gravity heat pipes are arranged along the Y axis with a spacing, so that the plurality of phase-change gravity heat pipes 412 can be more uniformly arranged on the evaporation chamber 411, and it is ensured that the cooling mechanism 4 can uniformly lead out the heat of the battery pack 3, and avoid local temperature unevenness.
[0063] In some embodiments, a heat dissipation fin 42 is provided on one side of the support mechanism 2.
[0064] In other embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, multiple heat dissipation fins 42 are simultaneously provided on one side of the support mechanism 2, and the multiple heat dissipation fins 42 are distributed at intervals along the X-axis. The multiple heat dissipation fins 42 dissipate heat together, increasing the contact area with the air, so that the heat can be more fully transferred to the surrounding air through convection. The intervals between the multiple heat dissipation fins 42 provide airflow channels. When the air flows through the heat dissipation fins 42, the existence of the intervals allows the air to flow more smoothly between the heat dissipation fins 42, forming a good convection environment.
[0065] Optionally, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the phase change gravity heat pipe 412 also includes a third pipe section 4123, a fourth pipe section 4124, and a fifth pipe section 4125. The third pipe section 4123 and the fourth pipe section 4124 both extend along the Z-axis, and their lengths are different. One end of the third pipe section 4123 is connected to the evaporation chamber 411, and the other end of the third pipe section 4123 is connected to one end of the first pipe section 4121. The other end of the first pipe section 4121 has a first bidirectional cutoff. The valve, one end of the fourth pipe section 4124 is connected to the evaporation chamber 411, the other end of the fourth pipe section 4124 is connected to one end of the second pipe section 4122, the other end of the second pipe section 4122 has a second bidirectional shut-off valve, the fifth pipe section 4125 has a U-shaped structure, a number of heat dissipation fins 42 are sleeved on the outer wall of the fifth pipe section 4125, and the two ends of the fifth pipe section 4125 are respectively connected to the first bidirectional shut-off valve and the second bidirectional shut-off valve, so that the phase change gravity heat pipe 412 is connected to form a loop.
[0066] The third pipe segment 4123 and the fourth pipe segment 4124 are arranged along the Z axis and have different lengths, so that the first pipe segment 4121 and the second pipe segment 4122 can communicate with the evaporation chamber 411 through the third pipe segment 4123 and the fourth pipe segment 4124 respectively, and the first pipe segment 4121 and the second pipe segment 4122 have a height difference along the Z axis; the first two-way stop valve and the second two-way stop valve are arranged at the other end of the first pipe segment 4121 and the other end of the second pipe segment 4122, so that the fifth pipe segment 4125 is nested in the heat dissipation fin 42; when assembling the sodium electric commercial energy storage cabinet, the battery pack 3 is placed behind the support mechanism 2, and a plurality of heat dissipation fins 42 with the fifth pipe segment 4125 nested therein are placed on one side of the support mechanism 2, so that the fifth pipe segment 4125 is connected to the first pipe segment 4121 and the second pipe segment 4122 through the first two-way stop valve and the second two-way stop valve to form a loop. The split type phase change gravity heat pipe 412 makes the first pipe segment 4121, the second pipe segment 4122, the third pipe segment 4123 and the fourth pipe segment 4124 located on the battery pack 3, and the fifth pipe segment 4125 is nested in the heat dissipation fin 42, which makes the assembly of the sodium electric commercial energy storage cabinet more simple and fast, and eliminates the interference between the phase change gravity heat pipe 412 and the support mechanism 2 during installation, as well as the problem of how to nest the heat dissipation fin 42 in the outer wall of the phase change gravity heat pipe 412 in a limited space. In addition, the flow of the phase change working medium can be adjusted through the first two-way stop valve and the second two-way stop valve to realize dynamic thermal management.
[0067] When the battery pack 3 generates heat due to temperature rise, the heat generated by the battery pack 3 is conducted to the evaporation chamber 411 of the cooling assembly 41, and the phase change working medium in the evaporation chamber 411 absorbs the heat generated by the battery pack 3 to reduce the temperature of the battery pack 3. The heat absorbed by the phase change working medium from the battery pack 3 is used to sublimate the phase change working medium from a liquid state to a gaseous state, and the other part is used to increase the temperature of the gaseous phase change working medium. The gaseous phase change working medium rises and enters the third pipe segment 4123, and flows to the first pipe segment 4121 under the push of the pressure difference, and then flows to the fifth pipe segment 4125. The gaseous phase change working medium transfers heat to the fifth pipe segment 4125, and the fifth pipe segment 4125 transfers heat to the heat dissipation fin 42 sleeved on the outer wall. Since the heat dissipation fin 42 has a large heat dissipation area, it can effectively and quickly perform convective heat exchange with the surrounding air to dissipate heat to the surrounding environment, thereby cooling and re-liquefying the phase change working medium. The liquefied phase change working medium flows back to the second pipe segment 4122 under the action of gravity, and then continues to flow to the fourth pipe segment 4124, and finally falls back into the evaporation chamber 411.
[0068] In the embodiment, the inner wall of the third tube segment 4123 at the connection with the evaporation chamber 411 is provided with a hydrophilic film. On the one hand, the hydrophilic film can prevent gas blockage, ensure the stability of the flow of the vapor-phase phase change working medium, and avoid flow fluctuation caused by gas blockage; on the other hand, the hydrophilic film can reduce the flow resistance of the vapor-phase phase change working medium, so that the vapor-phase phase change working medium can flow more smoothly into the phase change gravity heat pipe 412, and the heat dissipation efficiency is improved.
[0069] It should be noted that the design of the cooling assembly 41 needs to consider the phase change state of the internal phase change working medium liquid phase and vapor phase, and the VOF model is introduced to systematically calculate the phase change process. Considering that the flow of the working medium in the phase change gravity heat pipe 412 is affected by the surface tension, a continuous tension model of the surface tension needs to be established:

[0071] wherein, is the surface tension coefficient, which is a physical property parameter of the phase change working medium; are the radii of curvature of the vapor phase and the liquid phase of the phase change working medium, respectively, which are obtained through experimental observation or VOF multiphase flow simulation; are the densities of the liquid phase and the vapor phase of the phase change working medium, respectively, which are physical property tables of the phase change working medium; , are the volume fractions of the liquid phase and the vapor phase of the phase change working medium, which are calculated in real time through VOF simulation.
[0072] This formula describes the surface tension effect of the vapor-liquid two-phase interface, which is used to determine whether the phase change working medium can form a stable bubble during vaporization or whether a continuous liquid film can be formed during liquefaction to guide the geometric shape and size design of the cooling assembly 41, so that the phase change working medium can wet the pipe wall of the phase change gravity heat pipe 412, avoid “dry burning” or liquid film rupture, and ensure that the phase change working medium can effectively return. That is, the shape and size of the evaporation chamber 411 and the phase change gravity heat pipe 412 can be designed to meet the requirements through this formula.
[0073] According to the continuity equation, the momentum equation of the phase change working medium during phase change can be obtained:
[0074]
[0075] wherein, is the density of the phase change working medium, which is calculated by weighting the physical properties and the volume fraction of the phase change working medium; is the velocity vector, which is obtained by solving and is the target variable; is the time, which is the time step of simulation or experiment; is the acceleration of gravity, which is a constant; is the pressure, which is obtained by solving; is the dynamic viscosity, calculated by the phase change working medium properties and volume fraction, is the unit tensor, which is a constant.

That is, the flow velocity distribution of the phase change working medium in the phase change gravity heat pipe 412 is simulated by this formula, and then the diameter, length and the like of the phase change gravity heat pipe 412 are optimized, and the flow efficiency is optimized.
[0077] The continuity equation is combined with heat exchange to obtain the energy equation of the phase change working medium during phase change:
[0078]
[0079] wherein, is the energy, which is obtained according to the latent heat of vaporization and the internal heat; is the temperature, which is determined by the temperature of the battery cell 3211 in the battery pack 3 and the internal temperature of the phase change gravity heat pipe 412; is the thermal conductivity, which is the thermal conductivity of the liquid phase change working medium; is the energy source term, which is determined by the working condition of the battery pack 3; is the velocity vector, which is obtained by solving the momentum equation.

[0081] The liquid filling rate of the phase change working medium in the evaporation chamber 411 also needs to be considered in the cooling assembly 41. If the liquid filling rate is too small, the evaporation amount of the phase change working medium will be too large, but the condensation amount will be insufficient, resulting in that the excess heat in the battery pack 3 is not absorbed, and the cooling performance of the cooling assembly 41 is poor. If the liquid filling rate is too large, the internal thermal resistance of the evaporation chamber 411 will increase, when the heat power of the battery pack 3 is small, the temperature has not reached the complete boiling temperature, only the evaporation heat transfer of the liquid film is relied on, and the excess liquid will form a liquid pit to hinder the evaporation of the liquid film and increase the thermal resistance of the phase change working medium. Therefore, the liquid filling rate is calculated by the Streltsov model:

That is, according to the section lengths and cross-sectional areas of the cooling assembly 41, the liquid filling rate of the phase-change working medium is determined.
[0084] In the embodiment, the phase-change working medium is trifluorotrichloroethane (R113). R113 has a low boiling point at the saturation vapor pressure corresponding to the working temperature of the phase-change gravity heat pipe 412, and the vapor formed can well wet the wall surface of the phase-change gravity heat pipe 412 to form a continuous liquid film that can return flow, and has a high thermal conductivity and latent heat, a large surface tension, a low viscosity, and is economical and environmentally friendly.
