Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of vehicle technology, and more specifically, to a thermal management system and a hybrid vehicle having the same. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of the global economy, green energy resources are becoming increasingly scarce. Countries are formulating effective measures to achieve carbon neutrality, and vigorously developing new energy vehicles (including hybrid vehicles) has become one of the important means to save energy and achieve carbon neutrality.
[0003] Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) are a type of new energy vehicle, and all HEVs are equipped with engines. Fuel flash boiling injection is a fuel injection technology that enhances atomization by rapidly boiling high-temperature fuel in a low-pressure environment. It is mainly used in automotive engines and other fields. This technology is divided into two categories: superheated flash boiling and depressurized flash boiling. It utilizes the bubbles generated by fuel phase change to promote droplet breakage, resulting in characteristics such as shortening the penetration distance, increasing the spray cone angle, and reducing the Sauter mean diameter, thus optimizing fuel-air mixing and improving combustion efficiency.
[0004] Currently, in order to achieve fuel flash injection, a heater is usually installed in the fuel line to heat the fuel, which results in higher costs. Summary of the Invention

Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters in the following figures denote similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it need not be further discussed in subsequent figures.
[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, this application provides a thermal management system for use in hybrid vehicles. An embodiment of the thermal management system of this application includes a fuel heating pipe 01 and a battery circulation pipe 02. The fuel heating pipe 01 is used to heat the fuel in the fuel tank 1. The battery circulation pipe 02 is used to exchange heat with the battery 2. The battery circulation pipe 02 can be connected in series with the fuel heating pipe 01 to transfer the heat generated by the battery 2 to the fuel tank 1 and heat the fuel, so that the fuel can be injected through a flash boiling process.
[0036] In this embodiment, the battery circulation line 02 is used for heat exchange with the battery 2, enabling the battery 2 to operate at a suitable temperature. The battery circulation line 02 is connected in series with the fuel heating line 01, allowing the heat generated during battery 2 operation to be transferred to the fuel tank 1 through both lines, heating the fuel and increasing its temperature. This, in turn, enables flash-boiling injection, improving combustion efficiency. By utilizing the heat generated by the battery 2 to heat the fuel, this embodiment effectively utilizes the heat generated by internal vehicle components, eliminating the need for an additional heater on the fuel heating line 01 and reducing the cost of the thermal management system. Therefore, this embodiment effectively solves the problem of high costs associated with adding a heater to the fuel line for flash-boiling injection in related technologies.
[0037] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the battery circulation pipeline 02 is itself a ring-shaped pipeline, and a heat exchange medium (such as water) flows inside this ring-shaped pipeline to heat or cool the battery 2. Figure 1As shown, the battery circulation pipeline 02 is equipped with a heater 13, a first heat exchanger 14, and a first water pump 15. The first water pump 15 provides power to the heat exchange medium within the battery circulation pipeline 02. The heater 13 is a PTC heater; when the hybrid vehicle operates in a low-temperature environment, the heater 13 can be activated to heat the heat exchange medium within the battery circulation pipeline 02, thereby heating the battery 2 and allowing it to operate at a suitable temperature, thus improving battery performance. The battery circulation pipeline 02 can absorb the cooling energy from the air conditioning pipeline of the thermal management system (not part of this improvement, not shown in the figure) through the first heat exchanger 14 to lower the temperature of the battery 2, ensuring it operates at a suitable temperature and improving battery performance. When the battery circulation pipeline 02 is connected in series with the fuel heating pipeline 01, closing the air conditioning pipeline or blocking the heat exchange between the air conditioning pipeline and the battery circulation pipeline 02 allows the heat generated by the battery 2 during operation to be transferred to the fuel tank 1 through the battery circulation pipeline 02 and the fuel heating pipeline 01 to heat the fuel.
[0038] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the thermal management system also includes an electronically controlled circulation pipeline 03, which is used for heat exchange with the electronic control device 3. The electronically controlled circulation pipeline 03 can be connected in series with the fuel heating pipeline 01 to transfer the heat generated by the electronic control device 3 to the fuel tank 1 and heat the fuel, enabling the fuel to be injected through a flash boiling process. The electronically controlled circulation pipeline 03 is used for heat exchange with the electronic control device 3, allowing the electronic control device 3 to operate at a suitable temperature. The electronically controlled circulation pipeline 03 can be connected in series with the fuel heating pipeline 01, so that the heat generated during the operation of the electronic control device 3 can be transferred to the fuel tank 1 through the electronically controlled circulation pipeline 03 and the fuel heating pipeline 01, heating the fuel in the fuel tank 1 and increasing the fuel temperature. This allows the fuel to be injected through a flash boiling process, improving combustion efficiency. In this embodiment, by utilizing the heat generated by the electronic control device 3 to heat the fuel, the heat generated by the heat-generating components inside the vehicle can be effectively utilized, eliminating the need to add a heater to the fuel heating pipeline 01 and reducing the cost of the thermal management system.
[0039] Among them, the aforementioned electronic control device 3 includes, but is not limited to, a clutch controller, an air conditioning panel controller, a semiconductor controller, and an intelligent driving cabin controller.
[0040] It should be noted that the above statement "the electronically controlled circulation line 03 can be connected in series with the fuel heating line 01" does not mean that the entire electronically controlled circulation line 03 is connected in series with the fuel heating line 01, but rather that a portion of the electronically controlled circulation line 03 is connected in series with the fuel heating line 01.
[0041] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the thermal management system also includes a first switching element 4 disposed between the battery circulation line 02 and the electronic control circulation line 03. The first switching element 4 has a first working state and a second working state. In the first working state, the battery circulation line 02 and the electronic control circulation line 03 are independent of each other. In the second working state, the battery circulation line 02 and the electronic control circulation line 03 are connected in series to transfer the heat generated by the battery 2 and the electronic control device 3 to the fuel tank 1 and heat the fuel, enabling the fuel to be injected through a flash boiling process. When the first switching element 4 is in the second working state, the battery circulation line 02 and the electronic control circulation line 03 are connected in series so that the heat generated by the battery 2 and the electronic control device 3 can be transferred to the fuel tank 1 and heat the fuel, thereby improving the fuel injection effect through a flash boiling process.
[0042] When the first switching element 4 is in the first working state, the battery circulation pipeline 02 and the electronic control circulation pipeline 03 are independent of each other. At this time, the battery circulation pipeline 02 operates independently, or the battery circulation pipeline 02 is connected in series with the fuel heating pipeline 01 and transfers the heat generated by the battery 2 to the fuel tank 1 to heat the fuel, or the electronic control circulation pipeline 03 operates independently, or the electronic control circulation pipeline 03 is connected in series with the fuel heating pipeline 01 and transfers the heat generated by the electronic control device 3 to the fuel tank 1 to heat the fuel.
[0043] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the electronically controlled circulation pipeline 03 includes an electronically controlled heat exchange section 031 and an electronically controlled heat dissipation section 032. The electronically controlled device 3 is installed on the electronically controlled heat exchange section 031, and a first radiator 5 is installed on the electronically controlled heat dissipation section 032. The fuel heating pipeline 01 and the electronically controlled heat dissipation section 032 are connected in parallel, and one of them is connected to the electronically controlled heat exchange section 031. When the electronically controlled heat dissipation section 032 is connected to the electronically controlled heat exchange section 031, the heat exchange medium absorbs the heat generated by the electronically controlled device 3 during operation and dissipates the heat to the external environment through the first radiator 5 when flowing through the electronically controlled heat exchange section 031. When the electronically controlled heat exchange section 031 is connected to the fuel heating pipeline 01, the heat exchange medium absorbs the heat generated by the electronically controlled device 3 during operation and transfers the heat to the fuel tank 1 to heat the fuel inside, thereby achieving fuel flash-boiling injection.
[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the thermal management system also includes a bypass pipe 04. The bypass pipe 04, the fuel heating pipe 01, and the electrically controlled heat dissipation pipe section 032 are connected in parallel, and one of them is selectively connected to the electrically controlled heat exchange pipe section 031. When the heat generated by the electrically controlled device 3 is relatively small, the bypass pipe 04 can be connected to the electrically controlled heat exchange pipe section 031. When the heat exchange medium flows through the electrically controlled heat exchange pipe section 031, it absorbs the heat generated by the electrically controlled device 3 during operation and dissipates heat to the external environment through the pipe walls of the electrically controlled heat exchange pipe section 031 and the bypass pipe 04.
[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a second switching element 6 is provided at the connection between the electrically controlled heat exchanger section 031 and the electrically controlled heat dissipation section 032. One end of the bypass pipe 04 is connected to the second switching element 6. The second switching element 6 has a third working state and a fourth working state. In the third working state, the second switching element 6 connects the electrically controlled heat exchanger section 031 and the electrically controlled heat dissipation section 032 and blocks the bypass pipe 04. In the fourth working state, the second switching element 6 connects the electrically controlled heat exchanger section 031 and the bypass pipe 04 and blocks the electrically controlled heat dissipation section 032. By switching the working state of the second switching element 6, it is possible to connect the electrically controlled heat exchanger section 031 and the electrically controlled heat dissipation section 032 or connect the electrically controlled heat exchanger section 031 and the bypass pipe 04.
[0046] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the thermal management system also includes a first connecting pipe 05 connected between the first end of the fuel heating pipe 01 and the bypass pipe 04, and a second connecting pipe 06 connected between the second end of the fuel heating pipe 01 and the bypass pipe 04. A third switching element 7 is provided between the first connecting pipe 05 and the bypass pipe 04. The third switching element 7 has a fifth working state and a sixth working state. In the fifth working state, the third switching element 7 opens the bypass pipe 04 and blocks the first connecting pipe 05. In the sixth working state, the third switching element 7 opens the first connecting pipe 05 and blocks the portion of the bypass pipe 04 located between the first connecting pipe 05 and the second connecting pipe 06. The fuel heating pipe 01 and the electronically controlled circulation pipe 03 are connected by setting the first connecting pipe 05 and the second connecting pipe 06. Through the cooperation of the second switching element 6 and the third switching element 7, the bypass pipe 04, the fuel heating pipe 01, and the electronically controlled heat dissipation pipe section 032 can be connected in parallel, with one of them selectively connected to the electronically controlled heat exchange pipe section 031. Specifically, when the second switching element 6 is in the third working state, the electronically controlled heat exchange pipe section 031 is connected to the electronically controlled heat dissipation pipe section 032 and the bypass pipe 04. 4. Both the fuel heating pipe 01 and the second switching element 6 are disconnected. When the second switching element 6 is in the fourth working state and the third switching element 7 is in the fifth working state, the electrically controlled heat exchange pipe section 031 is connected to the bypass pipe 04 and disconnected from both the electrically controlled heat dissipation pipe section 032 and the fuel heating pipe 01. When the second switching element 6 is in the fourth working state and the third switching element 7 is in the sixth working state, the electrically controlled heat exchange pipe section 031 is connected to the fuel heating pipe 01 and disconnected from both the bypass pipe 04 and the electrically controlled heat dissipation pipe section 032.
[0047] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the thermal management system also includes an engine circulation pipe 07, which includes an engine heat exchange pipe section 071 and an engine cooling pipe section 072. The engine heat exchange pipe section 071 exchanges heat with the engine, and the engine cooling pipe section 072 is equipped with a second radiator 8. The engine cooling pipe section 072 and the fuel heating pipe section 01 are connected in parallel, and one of them is selectively connected to the engine heat exchange pipe section 071. When the engine cooling pipe section 072 is connected to the engine heat exchange pipe section 071, the heat exchange medium absorbs the heat generated by the engine 12 during operation when flowing through the engine heat exchange pipe section 071 and dissipates the heat to the external environment through the second radiator 8. When the engine heat exchange pipe section 071 is connected to the fuel heating pipe section 01, the heat exchange medium absorbs the heat generated by the engine 12 during operation when flowing through the engine heat exchange pipe section 071 and transfers the heat to the fuel tank 1 to heat the fuel inside, thereby achieving fuel flash-boil injection.
[0048] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7As shown, the thermal management system also includes a third connecting pipe 08 disposed between the first end of the fuel heating pipe 01 and the first end of the engine cooling pipe section 072, and a fourth connecting pipe 09 connected between the second end of the fuel heating pipe 01 and the second end of the engine cooling pipe section 072. The third connecting pipe 08 and the fourth connecting pipe 09 enable communication between the engine heat exchange pipe section 071 and the fuel heating pipe 01.
[0049] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, a fourth switching element 9 is provided at the first end of the fuel heating pipe 01. The fourth switching element 9 has a seventh working state and an eighth working state. In the seventh working state, the fourth switching element 9 connects the fuel heating pipe 01 and the third connecting pipe 08. In the eighth working state, the fourth switching element 9 disconnects the fuel heating pipe 01 and the third connecting pipe 08. By controlling the working state of the fourth switching element 9, the connection or disconnection between the fuel heating pipe 01 and the third connecting pipe 08 can be achieved.
[0050] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, a fifth switching element 10 is provided at the second end of the fuel heating pipe 01. The fifth switching element 10 has a ninth working state and a tenth working state. In the ninth working state, the fifth switching element 10 connects the fuel heating pipe 01 and the fourth connecting pipe 09. In the tenth working state, the fifth switching element 10 disconnects the fuel heating pipe 01 and the fourth connecting pipe 09. By controlling the working state of the fifth switching element 10, the connection or disconnection between the fuel heating pipe 01 and the fourth connecting pipe 09 can be achieved.
[0051] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, a sixth switching element 11 is provided at the connection position of the third connecting pipe 08, the engine heat exchange pipe section 071, and the engine cooling pipe section 072. The sixth switching element 11 has an eleventh working state and a twelfth working state. In the eleventh working state, the sixth switching element 11 connects the engine cooling pipe section 072 and the engine heat exchange pipe section 071 and blocks the third connecting pipe 08. In the twelfth working state, the sixth switching element 11 connects the engine heat exchange pipe section 071 and the third connecting pipe 08 and blocks the engine cooling pipe section 072. By controlling the working state of the sixth switching element 11, the engine heat exchange pipe section 071 can be connected to the engine cooling pipe section 072 or to the third connecting pipe 08, thereby enabling the engine cooling pipe section 072 and the fuel heating pipe 01 to be selectively connected to the engine heat exchange pipe section 071.
[0052] Figures 1 to 3The diagram shows a structural schematic of one embodiment of this application. In this embodiment, the first switching element 4 and the second switching element 6 are both four-way valves, and the third switching element 7, the fourth switching element 9, the fifth switching element 10 and the sixth switching element 11 are all two-position three-way valves.
[0053] Specifically, it should be noted that in this embodiment, the battery circulation pipeline 02 itself is a ring-shaped pipeline, and a heat exchange medium (such as water) flows inside this ring-shaped pipeline to heat or cool the battery 2. Figure 1 As shown, the battery circulation pipeline 02 is equipped with a heater 13, a first heat exchanger 14, and a first water pump 15. The first water pump 15 provides power to the heat exchange medium within the battery circulation pipeline 02. When the hybrid vehicle operates in a low-temperature environment, the heater 13 can be activated to heat the heat exchange medium within the battery circulation pipeline 02, thereby heating the battery 2 and allowing it to operate at a suitable temperature, thus improving battery performance. The battery circulation pipeline 02 can absorb the cooling energy from the air conditioning pipeline of the thermal management system (the air conditioning pipeline is not part of this improvement and is not shown in the figure) through the first heat exchanger 14 to lower the temperature of the battery 2, allowing it to operate at a suitable temperature and improving battery performance. When the battery circulation pipeline 02 is connected in series with the fuel heating pipeline 01, the air conditioning pipeline can be shut off or the heat exchange between the air conditioning pipeline and the battery circulation pipeline 02 can be blocked, allowing the heat generated by the battery 2 during operation to be transferred to the fuel tank 1 through the battery circulation pipeline 02 and the fuel heating pipeline 01 to heat the fuel.
[0054] The electrically controlled circulation pipeline 03 is itself a ring-shaped pipeline, through which a heat exchange medium (such as water) flows to cool the electrically controlled device 3. Figure 1 As shown, the electrically controlled circulation pipeline 03 is equipped with a second water pump 16, a water jug 17, a first radiator 5, and an electrical control device 3. Specifically, the second water pump 16 and the electrical control device 3 are installed on the electrically controlled heat exchange pipe section 031, and the water jug 17 and the first radiator 5 are installed on the electrically controlled heat dissipation pipe section 032. The water jug 17 is used to store the heat exchange medium. The second water pump 16 can provide power for the heat exchange medium in the electrically controlled circulation pipeline 03. The electrically controlled circulation pipeline 03 can dissipate heat to the external environment through the first radiator 5 to reduce the temperature of the electrical control device 3.
[0055] The first switching element 4 is a series-parallel four-way valve and is installed between the battery circulation pipeline 02 and the electronic control circulation pipeline 03. Ports A and B of the first switching element 4 are connected to the two ends of the battery circulation pipeline 02, and ports C and D of the first switching element 4 are connected to the two ends of the electronic control circulation pipeline 03.
