[0002] In recent years, new energy commercial vehicles have required a balance between instantaneous high-power output and long driving range, making the coordinated use of high-power-density and high-energy-density batteries the mainstream technological approach.

The significant differences in the operating characteristics of these two types of batteries make it difficult to accommodate both using traditional uniform heat dissipation structures, resulting in issues such as low matching, insufficient heat dissipation for high-power batteries, and poor temperature uniformity for high-energy batteries.

[0055] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0056] Example 1:
[0057] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the present invention provides a high-power and high-energy-density battery composite heat dissipation system, the heat dissipation system comprising: a first current collector wall 10, a second current collector wall 20, a third current collector wall 30, a first cooling plate 40, and a second cooling plate 50;

[0061] The first manifold 10 is provided with a liquid-cooled inlet and an air-cooled inlet; the liquid-cooled inlet is connected to the first manifold 11 and the second manifold 12, and the air-cooled inlet is connected to the second manifold 12; the liquid-cooled inlet is connected to the liquid-cooled medium supply assembly through a liquid-cooled medium flow regulating valve 14, which is used to regulate the flow distribution ratio of the liquid-cooled medium to the first manifold 11 and the second manifold 12; the air-cooled inlet is connected to the fan through an air-cooled inlet valve;
[0062] The second manifold wall 20 is provided with a first liquid-cooled outlet. The liquid-cooled medium entering the first manifold cavity 11 enters the third manifold cavity 12 through the liquid-cooled medium flow channel 41 and finally flows out from the first liquid-cooled outlet. The first liquid-cooled outlet is provided with a first liquid-cooled outlet valve. The third manifold wall 30 has a second liquid-cooled outlet and an air-cooled outlet. In liquid-cooling mode, the liquid-cooled medium entering the second manifold cavity 12 enters the fourth manifold cavity 31 through the cooling channel 51 and finally flows out from the second liquid-cooled outlet. The second liquid-cooled outlet is provided with a second liquid-cooled outlet valve. In air-cooling mode, the air-cooled medium entering the second manifold cavity 12 enters the fourth manifold cavity 31 through the cooling channel 51 and finally exits from the air-cooled outlet. The air-cooled outlet is provided with an air-cooled outlet valve.
[0063] The liquid cooling medium supply assembly includes: a liquid cooling medium storage container, a power pump, and a flow regulating main valve;
[0064] The liquid cooling medium storage container provides liquid cooling medium to the power pump. The first liquid cooling outlet valve and the second liquid cooling outlet valve are both connected to the liquid cooling medium storage container through heat exchange pipelines. The heat exchange pipelines are equipped with heat exchangers to cool the liquid cooling medium and then recover it into the liquid cooling medium storage container.
[0065] The power pump is connected to the liquid cooling medium flow regulating valve 14 via the main flow regulating valve.
[0066] like Figure 4 As shown, the liquid cooling medium flow regulating valve 14 includes: a rotating cylinder 15 and a baffle 16;
[0067] The baffle 16 is installed inside the rotating cylinder 15 and is a semi-circular baffle that blocks half of the cross-section of the rotating cylinder 15. The rotating cylinder 15 is connected to the liquid cooling inlet through a sealed bearing 17 and a rotating dynamic seal. The baffle 16 is perpendicularly attached to the heat insulation plate 13. The rotating cylinder 15 is driven to rotate by a bearing motor to achieve stepless control of the liquid cooling medium flow distribution ratio.
[0068] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the high power density battery module 01 includes 28 high power density single cells arranged in 14 rows and 2 columns. Adjacent rows of high power density single cells are separated by a first cooling plate 40. Each first cooling plate 40 has 11 parallel straight liquid cooling medium channels 41. The cross-section of the liquid cooling medium channels 41 is rectangular, with a height of 5mm and a width of 1.2mm. The liquid cooling medium channels 41 in the upper 2 / 3 area of the first cooling plate 40 are densely arranged, while the liquid cooling medium channels 41 in the lower 1 / 3 area of the first cooling plate 40 are sparsely arranged.
[0069] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the high-energy-density battery module 02 includes 56 high-energy-density single cells arranged in 14 rows and 4 columns. Adjacent rows of high-energy-density single cells are separated by a second cooling plate 50. Each second cooling plate 50 has a straight cooling channel 51. The cross-section of the cooling channel 51 is rectangular, with a height of 108 mm and a width of 1.2 mm. The cooling channel 51 is a shared heat exchange channel for air cooling and liquid cooling. When the battery is discharged at a low rate and the temperature is low, the system uses forced air cooling. When the discharge rate or temperature rises to exceed the threshold, it automatically switches to liquid cooling. The inlets and outlets of air cooling and liquid cooling are different, but the heat exchange medium flows through the same cavity.
[0070] The heat dissipation system also includes: a first temperature sensor, a second temperature sensor, a current sensor, and a controller;
[0071] The first temperature sensor is installed in the high power density battery module 01 to monitor the temperature T1 of the high power density battery module 01 in real time; the current sensor is installed on the bus of the high power density battery module 01 to monitor the current value I of the bus of the high power density battery module 01; the second temperature sensor is installed in the high energy density battery module 02 to monitor the temperature T2 of the high energy density battery module 02 in real time; the controller is electrically connected to the first temperature sensor, the second temperature sensor, the liquid cooling medium flow regulating valve 14, the flow regulating main valve, the air cooling inlet valve, the first liquid cooling outlet valve, the second liquid cooling outlet valve, and the air cooling outlet valve, respectively.
[0072] This invention provides a heat dissipation method for a high-power and high-energy-density battery, the heat dissipation method comprising:
[0073] The temperature T1 of the high power density battery module 01 is monitored in real time by the first temperature sensor, the current value I of the bus of the high power density battery module 01 is monitored in real time by the current sensor, and the temperature T2 of the high energy density battery module 02 is monitored in real time by the second temperature sensor.
[0074] When the high-energy-density battery module 02 operates alone, air cooling is used first. The controller controls the opening of the air-cooling inlet valve and the air-cooling outlet valve, and adjusts the fan power according to T2. The fan power is linearly positively correlated with T2. If T2 continues to rise and exceeds the threshold, it switches to liquid cooling. The controller controls the air-cooling inlet valve and the air-cooling outlet valve to close, the second liquid cooling outlet valve to open, the liquid cooling medium flow regulating valve 14 to be adjusted to only connect with the second manifold 12, and the opening degree of the flow regulating main valve is adjusted according to T2. The opening degree of the flow regulating main valve is linearly positively correlated with T2.
[0075] When high-power-density battery module 01 and high-energy-density battery module 02 are working simultaneously, the controller controls the opening of the first liquid-cooled outlet valve and the second liquid-cooled outlet valve, and the main flow regulating valve to open to the maximum. It also controls the rotation angle of the baffle 16 of the liquid-cooled medium flow regulating valve 14 using the following formula. :

[0087] , , For calibration correction factors;
[0088] This refers to the current value of the 01 busbar of the high power density battery module.
[0089] The rated capacity of high power density battery module 01;
[0090] When the liquid cooling medium flow regulating valve 14 is only connected to the second manifold 12 ;
[0091] The function of opening the main flow control valve to its maximum is to ensure that there is a sufficient amount of liquid cooling medium flowing through the liquid cooling medium flow control valve 14, keeping the liquid cooling medium flow control valve 14 full of liquid cooling medium, and ensuring that the flow distribution ratio of the liquid cooling medium is accurate.
[0092] Example 2:
[0093] like Figure 7 As shown, based on Example 1, when the high power density battery module 01 is working, it takes... The inlet velocity of the liquid cooling medium entering the first collector cavity 11 from the liquid cooling inlet is 0.5 m / s, the static pressure at the first liquid cooling outlet is 0 Pa, and the outlet velocity is 0.6 m / s. The velocity consistency of all flow channels is high, with no local high-speed impact or low-speed stagnation zone, and the flow distribution is balanced. Except for the electrode post, the highest temperature of the high power density battery module 01 is 26.2℃, the lowest temperature is 24.2℃, and the maximum temperature difference is about 2℃.
[0094] Example 3:
[0095] like Figure 8 , Figure 9 As shown, the difference from Embodiment 2 is that the liquid cooling medium channels 41 opened on the first cooling plate 40 are evenly arranged in space. Excluding the electrode posts, the highest temperature of the high power density battery module 01 is 27.2°C, the lowest temperature is 23.3°C, and the maximum temperature difference is about 4°C.
[0096] It can be seen that the first cooling plate 40, which adopts a dense arrangement of liquid cooling medium channels 41 in the upper 2 / 3 area and a sparse arrangement of liquid cooling medium channels 41 in the lower 1 / 3 area, can more accurately match the non-uniform heat generation of the battery cell, has stronger heat dissipation, effectively reduces the temperature difference between the upper and lower parts of the battery cell, and greatly improves temperature uniformity.

In this embodiment of the invention, the first cooling plate used in the high-power battery area uses a non-uniform flow channel with a dense upper section and a sparse lower section to accurately match the non-uniform heat generation of the battery cell, effectively reducing the temperature difference between the upper and lower parts of the battery and preventing local overheating.
[0099] 2. In this embodiment of the invention, the second cooling plate used in the high-energy battery area has a compact structure and high space utilization through a cooling channel that integrates air cooling and liquid cooling. The air cooling mode meets the requirements of low-load energy-saving operation, while the liquid cooling mode provides strong heat dissipation, with rapid switching and small temperature control lag.
[0100] 3. In this embodiment of the invention, the cooling channel has no internal partitions, resulting in low flow resistance and uniform heat exchange, thus avoiding the drawbacks of traditional independent flow channels, such as large volume and slow switching.

[0102] 5. In this embodiment of the invention, the heat dissipation system as a whole takes into account both the instantaneous heat dissipation requirements of high power and the long-term uniform temperature requirements of high energy, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the battery system.
