Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of engine assembly bench testing equipment, and in particular to a test bench and control method for a drive motor that integrates water cooling and oil cooling. Background Technology
[0002] Drive motors have become the "heart" and core driving force of new energy vehicles in the automotive industry. As motor speeds continue to increase, traditional water-cooling methods have become less efficient, making them unsuitable for high-speed, high-torque motors. Currently, oil-cooling is gradually becoming the mainstream method in mid-to-high-end automotive electric drive systems.
[0003] During the development phase, electric drive systems require extensive testing on test benches. However, current motor test benches are typically only equipped with water-cooled temperature control equipment. If oil-cooled motor testing is required, an additional set of oil-cooled temperature control equipment is needed.
[0004] In existing motor bench tests, oil-cooled motors typically use a separate oil-cooling temperature control system. This system mainly uses heaters and heat exchangers to control the oil temperature, and uses bypass valves and micro-flow regulating valves to manually adjust the oil flow rate, thus achieving precise oil-cooling temperature control.
[0005] Existing oil-cooled motor cooling solutions typically require a separate oil-cooling temperature control system. The oil-cooled motor itself requires oil-cooled temperature control, while the motor controller requires water-cooled temperature control. However, when conducting water-cooled motor tests on a motor bench, this entire oil-cooling system must be idle. This undoubtedly increases the cost of motor bench testing and impacts testing efficiency. Consequently, equipment utilization is low, motor bench testing costs increase, and testing efficiency is also affected. Summary of the Invention

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0025] This application provides an integrated water-cooled and oil-cooled drive motor test bench and control method, which can solve the problem in related technologies where motor test benches are equipped with independent water-cooled temperature control devices and oil-cooled temperature control devices, resulting in low equipment utilization and increased cost of motor test benches.
[0026] See Figure 1 As shown, the first aspect of this application provides a test bench for a drive motor that integrates water cooling and oil cooling, comprising: The compressor circuit includes a compressor 101, an evaporator 103, an expansion valve 118, and a condenser 102 connected in series. When the drive motor test bench is turned on, in the compressor circuit, the refrigerant in the evaporator 103 undergoes heat exchange, its temperature rises, and it becomes gaseous. It is then drawn into the compressor 101 and transformed into a high-temperature, high-pressure gas. After entering the condenser 102 and exchanging heat with external cooling water, it becomes a high-pressure, room-temperature liquid. It then passes through the expansion valve 118 to reduce its pressure and re-enters the evaporator 103 to achieve refrigeration.
[0027] The water-cooled internal circulation loop includes a constant-temperature solution tank 105 connected to the evaporator 103, and an internal circulation pump 104 connected between the constant-temperature solution tank 105 and the evaporator 103. In the water-cooled internal circulation loop, the internal circulation pump 104 pumps cooling water from the constant-temperature solution tank 105 into the evaporator 103 for cooling and regulation. At the same time, the heater 106 in the constant-temperature solution tank 105 can control the temperature rise of the cooling water. By adjusting the compressor 101 and the heater 106, the cooling water temperature in the constant-temperature solution tank 105 can be precisely controlled.
[0028] The water-cooled external circulation loop includes a first load circulation branch connected to the constant temperature solution tank 105. A first external circulation pump 112 and a first solenoid valve 113 are connected to the first load circulation branch. The first external circulation pump 112 and the first solenoid valve 113 on the first load circulation branch are used to pump cooling water from the constant temperature solution tank 105 into the load under test, which is cooled by the cooling water, and to provide it with a suitable test temperature during bench testing.
[0029] The oil-cooled circulation loop includes a heat exchanger 201 connected to the first load circulation branch, a second solenoid valve 114 connected between the heat exchanger 201 and the first load circulation branch, and an oil tank 203 and an oil pump 202 connected in series with the heat exchanger 201. When a load under test cooled by cooling oil is connected to the oil-cooled circulation loop, the second solenoid valve 114, the first external circulation pump 112, and the oil pump 202 are opened simultaneously.
[0030] The first external circulation pump 112 pumps the cooling water in the constant temperature solution tank 105 into the heat exchanger 201, and the oil pump 202 pumps the cooling oil in the oil tank 203 into the heat exchanger 201 to exchange heat with the cooling water for cooling and regulation. The cooling oil cooled by the heat exchanger 201 enters the tested load cooled by the cooling oil and provides it with a suitable test temperature during bench testing.
[0031] In this embodiment of the application, the integrated water-cooled and oil-cooled drive motor test bench is used so that the compressor 101 controls the refrigerant to circulate between the evaporator 103, the expansion valve 118 and the condenser 102. The refrigerant enters the evaporator 103 to cool and absorb heat. The internal circulation pump 104 pumps the cooling water in the constant temperature solution tank 105 into the evaporator 103 to achieve heat exchange, cooling and regulation, and then returns it to the constant temperature solution tank 105.
[0032] The first solenoid valve 113 or the second solenoid valve 114 is opened or closed according to the type of coolant of the load being cooled. When the coolant of the load being cooled is water-cooled, the first solenoid valve 113 is opened and the second solenoid valve 114 is closed. The first external circulation pump 112 pumps the cooling water in the constant temperature solution tank 105 into the load being cooled connected to the first load circulation branch and then returns it to the constant temperature solution tank 105.
[0033] When the coolant of the load being cooled is oil-cooled, the second solenoid valve 114 is opened and the first solenoid valve 113 is closed. The first external circulation pump 112 pumps the cooling water in the constant temperature solution tank 105 into the heat exchanger 201. The oil pump 202 pumps the cooling oil in the oil tank 203 into the heat exchanger 201 to achieve heat exchange. After the cooling oil is cooled and regulated, it enters the load being cooled connected to the oil-cooled circulation loop and then flows back to the oil tank 203.
[0034] When the cooling water of the load being cooled is both oil-cooled and water-cooled, the first solenoid valve 113 and the second solenoid valve 114 are opened simultaneously. The first external circulation pump 112 pumps a portion of the cooling water in the constant temperature solution tank 105 into the load being cooled connected to the first load circulation branch and then back into the constant temperature solution tank 105.
[0035] The first external circulation pump 112 pumps another part of the cooling water in the constant temperature solution tank 105 into the heat exchanger 201. The oil pump 202 pumps the cooling oil in the oil tank 203 into the heat exchanger 201 to achieve heat exchange and cooling regulation. After that, the cooling oil enters the cooled load connected to the oil cooling circulation loop and then flows back to the oil tank 203.
[0036] In this application embodiment, the water-cooled external circulation loop and oil-cooled circulation loop are integrated with the compressor loop and water-cooled internal circulation loop, sharing the compressor loop and water-cooled internal circulation loop. In the test bench of the drive motor, the water-cooled external circulation loop and oil-cooled circulation loop can be flexibly selected according to the oil-cooling or water-cooling cooling method of the drive motor.
[0037] By controlling the opening or closing of the first solenoid valve 113 and the second solenoid valve 114, the oil cooling and water cooling can be switched freely. The same compressor circuit and water cooling internal circulation circuit can meet the temperature regulation and control of water cooling and oil cooling, which reduces the production and operation cost of bench test equipment and improves equipment utilization efficiency.
[0038] In some alternative embodiments: see Figure 1 As shown, the first aspect of this application provides a test bench for a drive motor that integrates water cooling and oil cooling. The evaporator 103 of the test bench includes a first refrigerant pipeline connecting a compressor 101 and an expansion valve 118, and a first closed hot water exchange tank that houses the first refrigerant pipeline. The constant temperature solution tank 105 is interconnected with the first closed hot water exchange tank through an internal circulation pipeline.
[0039] The internal circulation pipeline includes a first internal circulation pipeline and a second internal circulation pipeline 116, which are connected in parallel between the constant temperature solution tank 105 and the first closed heat exchange tank. An internal circulation pump 104 is connected to the first internal circulation pipeline. The internal circulation pump 104 is used to pump cooling water from the constant temperature solution tank 105 into the first closed heat exchange tank through the first internal circulation pipeline.
[0040] The cooling water entering the first closed heat exchange tank exchanges heat with the first refrigerant pipeline of the evaporator 103 to achieve cooling regulation. After being cooled and regulated by the first refrigerant pipeline, the cooling water is discharged from the first closed heat exchange tank and flows back to the constant temperature solution tank 105 through the second internal circulation pipeline 116, completing one cooling cycle of the cooling water.
[0041] In some alternative embodiments: see Figure 1 As shown, the first aspect of this application provides a test bench for a drive motor that integrates water cooling and oil cooling. The condenser 102 of the test bench includes a second refrigerant pipeline 115 connecting the compressor 101 and the expansion valve 118, and a second enclosed hot water tank that houses the second refrigerant pipeline 115.
[0042] The second closed-loop heat exchanger is connected to an external cooling water tank, and the external cooling water tank and the second closed-loop heat exchanger are interconnected via an external circulating water circuit. When the condenser 102 is operating, it releases heat to the outside. To reduce the operating temperature of the condenser 102, the condenser 102 is equipped with a second closed-loop heat exchanger connected to the external cooling water tank. The external cooling water tank circulates cooling water to the second closed-loop heat exchanger, thereby cooling the second refrigerant pipeline 115.
[0043] In some alternative embodiments: see Figure 1 As shown, the first aspect of this application provides a drive motor test bench that integrates water cooling and oil cooling. The first load circulation branch of the drive motor test bench is provided with a first temperature sensor 111 and a first flow meter 110. A heater 106 is provided in the constant temperature solution tank 105. The first temperature sensor 111 and the first flow meter 110 are connected to a controller (not shown in the figure).
[0044] The controller acquires monitoring signals from the first temperature sensor 111 and the first flow meter 110, and controls the operating power of the heater 106 and the first external circulation pump 112 based on the monitoring signals. When the first temperature sensor 111 and the first flow meter 110 detect that the temperature and flow rate of the cooling water on the first load circulation branch deviate from the set threshold, the controller adjusts the operating power of the heater 106 and the first external circulation pump 112 to bring the temperature and flow rate of the cooling water back to the set threshold.
[0045] When the first temperature sensor 111 detects that the temperature of the cooling water on the first load circulation branch is too low, the controller controls the heating power of the heater 106 in the constant temperature solution tank 105 and reduces the operating power of the first external circulation pump 112. When the first temperature sensor 111 detects that the temperature of the cooling water on the first load circulation branch is too high, the controller increases the operating power of the first external circulation pump 112 to accelerate the cooling water circulation.
