Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a fourteen-way valve Q dual air conditioning heat pump thermal management system for range-extended vehicles. Background Technology
[0002] In the existing technology, automotive thermal management systems generally adopt a multi-valve distributed control scheme to achieve cooling, heating and passenger compartment temperature regulation functions for core components such as the engine, motor, and battery. This involves connecting multiple three-way valves or four-way valves in series or parallel, and building separate functional loops with independent pipelines to meet the thermal management needs under different operating conditions.
[0003] The core design logic of this technical solution is to achieve loop switching through "multi-valve division of labor": for example, using a three-way valve to control the flow of coolant, realizing the switching between component cooling and waste heat recovery; and using a four-way valve to coordinate the heat exchange between the air conditioning system and the cooling circuit, ensuring independent operation of the cooling / heating functions. However, due to the limitation of the number of passages in a single valve body, multiple valve bodies need to be combined to cover the requirements of all operating conditions, which leads to the following inherent defects in the system:
[0004] Redundancy of valve body and pipeline: In order to match the control of multiple valve bodies, a large number of branch pipelines and connection interfaces need to be designed, which not only increases the overall size of the system, but also occupies more vehicle installation space. This contradiction is even more prominent in the case of tight chassis space of new energy vehicles.
[0005] High manufacturing and assembly costs: The multi-valve structure requires a variety of special molds, and the sealing of each valve body and pipeline needs to be adjusted one by one during the assembly process, which increases the complexity of the production process and manufacturing costs.
[0006] Significant energy loss: Excessive pipe connections and valve body throttling will increase the flow resistance of the fluid medium and reduce energy conversion efficiency. At the same time, the increased heat dissipation area of the pipes will also lead to additional energy loss.
[0007] The control logic is complex: each valve body requires an independent control motor and signal commands, which means that the vehicle controller needs to output a large number of control signals. This not only increases the difficulty of wiring harness layout, but may also affect the system response speed and stability due to signal coordination issues.
[0008] Typical applications of this technology cover thermal management systems for traditional fuel vehicles and early new energy vehicles. Its core limitation lies in its failure to address the need for multi-loop collaborative control through integrated design, resulting in room for optimization in terms of space occupation, cost control, energy efficiency, and control reliability.

[0043] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

By rotating the valve core of the fourteen-way valve Q to switch positions, the independent operation of each branch (such as cooling the battery alone or turning on the front air conditioning heating alone) or the coordinated operation of multiple branches (such as the engine cooling branch simultaneously dissipating heat while the motor waste heat is recovered to heat the battery) can be flexibly realized. The automotive air conditioning thermal management branch 9 is connected in series with the heat exchange branch 8 through a pipeline. Utilizing the heat exchange core of the heat exchange branch 8 (such as CHILLER, built-in condenser), the air conditioning system achieves heat exchange with other branches, thereby completing functions such as in-vehicle cooling, heat pump heating, and battery air conditioning side cooling.

[0056] Operating Mode 1: Engine Cooling Mode
[0057] like Figure 3 As shown, the engine cooling mode includes an H-type radiator (H-RAD), engine (M), auxiliary water tank (Tank5), 14-way valve (Q), and rear air conditioning heater core (R-HEAT). The inlet and outlet of the H-type radiator (H-RAD) are respectively connected to the coolant inlet and outlet of the engine (M). The auxiliary water tank (Tank5) is connected between the H-type radiator (H-RAD) and the engine (M). The engine (M) is connected to pins 11 and 12 of the 14-way valve (Q) through two independent pipes, respectively, to achieve coolant introduction and export. The rear air conditioning heater core (R-HEAT) is connected to pins 4 and 7 of the 14-way valve (Q) through two independent pipes, respectively, to achieve coolant introduction and export. At this time, pins 11 and 7 of the 14-way valve (Q) are connected, and pins 12 and 4 of the 14-way valve (Q) are connected.
[0058] like Figure 3 As shown, the working principle of the engine cooling mode is as follows: The heat generated by the engine M is transferred to the internal coolant. The heated coolant is introduced into the 11th pin of the 14-way valve Q through an independent sealed pipe. Since the 11th pin of the 14-way valve Q is connected to the 7th pin, the coolant flows into the rear air conditioning heater core R-HEAT through the 7th pin, and completes heat exchange with the air flowing through the heater core (for heating the rear passenger compartment). The cooled coolant flows out from the rear air conditioning heater core R-HEAT and is introduced into the 4th pin of the 14-way valve Q. Then, through the connection path between the 4th pin and the 12th pin of the 14-way valve Q, it flows back to the engine M through the 12th pin. At the same time, the auxiliary water tank Tank5 is connected in parallel between the H-type radiator H-RAD and the engine M to replenish the coolant and balance the circuit pressure, so as to realize the coordinated work of "engine cooling + rear air conditioning heating".

One end of the secondary water tank (Tank11) is connected to pin 8 of the 14-way valve Q, and the other end of the secondary water tank (Tank11) is connected to the front air conditioning controller (F-MCU) via the electric pump (pump1). The front air conditioning controller (F-MCU) is connected to the front air conditioning motor. One end of the F-MOT is connected to one end of the low-temperature radiator RAD, and the other end of the low-temperature radiator RAD is connected to pin 10 of the 14-way valve Q. One end of the auxiliary water tank Tank4 is connected to pin 9 of the 14-way valve Q, and the other end of the auxiliary water tank Tank4 is connected to the rear air conditioning controller R-MCU via the electronic pump pump4. The rear air conditioning controller R-MCU is connected to one end of the rear air conditioning motor R-MOT, and the other end of the rear air conditioning motor R-MOT is connected to one end of the low-temperature radiator RAD. At this time, pins 8 and 9 of the 14-way valve Q are both connected to pin 10.
[0061] like Figure 4 As shown, on the front air conditioning motor side, the auxiliary water tank Tank11 stores and replenishes the branch coolant. After the coolant is introduced through pin 8 of the 14-way valve Q, it is powered by the electric pump pump1 and delivered to the front air conditioning F-MCU, and then flows through the front air conditioning motor F-MOT to absorb the heat generated by the two motors. On the rear air conditioning motor side, the coolant in the auxiliary water tank Tank4 is introduced through pin 9 of the 14-way valve Q, and delivered by the electric pump pump4 to the rear air conditioning controller R-MCU, and then flows through the rear air conditioning motor R-MOT to complete heat absorption. Since pins 8 and 9 of the 14-way valve Q are connected to pin 10, the coolant absorbed by the front and rear air conditioning motors flows into the low-temperature radiator RAD. After cooling, it flows back to the 14-way valve Q through pin 10, forming a closed-loop circuit for synchronous cooling of the two motors, ensuring that the front and rear motors and their corresponding MCUs operate stably within a suitable temperature range.
[0062] Operating Mode 3: Battery Cooling Mode
[0063] 1) Air conditioning system cooling mode
[0064] like Figure 5As shown, the air conditioning system cooling circuit includes a power battery BAT, an electronic water pump pump2, an auxiliary water tank Tank2, a heat exchanger CH1LL, an outdoor condenser OHEX, a shut-off valve SOV2, a compressor EAC, a gas-liquid separator GLS, a shut-off valve SOV22, and an expansion valve EXV1. One end of the power battery BAT is connected to pin 14 of the 14-way valve Q, and the other end of the power battery BAT is connected to one end of the electronic water pump pump2 through the auxiliary water tank Tank2. The other end of the electronic water pump pump2 is connected to pin 1 of the 14-way valve Q. One end of the heat exchanger CH1LL is connected to pin 3 of the 14-way valve Q, and the other end of the heat exchanger CH1LL is connected to pin 2 of the 14-way valve Q. One end of the outdoor condenser OHEX is connected to the compressor EAC via the shut-off valve SOV2. The compressor EAC is connected to the other end of the heat exchanger CH1LL via the gas-liquid separator GLS. One end of the heat exchanger CH1LL is connected to one end of the shut-off valve SOV22 via the expansion valve EXV1. The other end of the shut-off valve SOV22 is connected to the other end of the outdoor condenser OHEX. At this time, pins 1 and 2 of the 14-way valve Q are connected, and pins 3 and 14 of the 14-way valve Q are connected.
[0065] like Figure 5 As shown, the working principle of the air conditioning system cooling circuit is as follows: The electric water pump 2 provides power, causing the coolant in the power battery BAT to flow into the 14-way valve Q through pin 14. Since pin 3 of the 14-way valve Q is connected to pin 14, the coolant enters the heat exchanger CHILL to absorb heat and cool down. The cooled coolant then flows back to the electric water pump 2 through pin 2 of the 14-way valve Q (connected to pin 1), and is then replenished by the auxiliary water tank Tank2 before being sent back to the power battery BAT, completing the battery cooling. At the same time, the air conditioning side compressor EAC starts, and the refrigerant enters the outdoor condenser OHEX for heat dissipation through the shut-off valve SOV2. After being throttled and depressurized through the shut-off valve SOV22 and the expansion valve EXV1, it enters the heat exchanger CHILL to absorb heat from the coolant.

The heated coolant is introduced into the 11th pin of the 14-way valve Q through an independent pipeline. Since the 11th pin is connected to the 1st pin, the coolant flows into the electronic water pump pump2 through the 1st pin. After being replenished by the auxiliary water tank Tank2, it is delivered to the power battery BAT, using the engine waste heat to heat the battery. The cooled coolant flows into the 14th pin through one end of the power battery BAT.

[0090] At this time, pins 6 and 7 are connected, and pins 4 and 5 are connected.
[0091] The working principle of the front and rear air conditioning heating modes is as follows: the electronic water pump 3 provides circulation power, and the coolant in the auxiliary water tank Tank1 is introduced through the 6th pin of the 14-way valve Q. Since the 6th pin is connected to the 7th pin, the coolant is split into the front air conditioning heating branch 3 and the rear air conditioning heating branch 4. In the front branch, the coolant flows through the high-pressure heater WPTC and is heated. Then, it exchanges heat with the air through the front air conditioning heater core F-HEAT to heat the front passenger compartment. In the rear branch, the coolant flows directly through the rear air conditioning heater core R-HEAT to complete heat exchange and heat the rear passenger compartment. The cooled coolant after heat exchange flows back through the 4th pin (connected to the 5th pin) of the 14-way valve Q to the auxiliary water tank Tank1, forming a closed loop circulation to achieve synchronous heating of the front and rear passenger compartments.
[0092] In addition to the front and rear air conditioning modes, the battery cooling mode can be activated simultaneously.

[0096] like Figure 12 As shown, the working principle of the heat pump air conditioning mode is as follows: After the compressor EAC starts, it compresses the gaseous refrigerant into a high-temperature and high-pressure state, and then diverts it through the shut-off valve SOV1 to the first built-in condenser T1 and the second built-in condenser T2. The refrigerant releases heat in the two built-in condensers and completes heat exchange with the air flowing through it, providing heating for the front and rear passenger compartments. After releasing heat, the refrigerant condenses into a liquid state and flows to the expansion valve EXV4. After throttling and depressurization, it becomes a low-temperature and low-pressure gas-liquid mixture, and then flows into the outdoor condenser OHEX to absorb heat from the external environment and evaporate into a gaseous state. Finally, the gaseous refrigerant flows back to the compressor EAC through the shut-off valve SOV4 and the gas-liquid separator GLS, forming a closed-loop heat pump cycle, continuously absorbing external heat to heat the vehicle interior.

The R-HEAT heating core exchanges heat with the air to heat the rear passenger compartment. After heat exchange, it flows through pin 4 (connected to pin 5) into the front air conditioning heating branch. Another path merges with the coolant delivered by the electric water pump pump3 in the front air conditioning heating branch (introduced through pin 6, which is connected to pin 13), flows through the high-pressure heater WPTC (as-needed auxiliary heating) and then enters the F-HEAT heating core for heat exchange, heating the front passenger compartment.
