Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobiles, in particular to a cooler bracket structure. Background Art

[0002] The battery chiller is a key component in the thermal management of batteries in pure electric or hybrid vehicles. Its function is to introduce refrigerant from the air-conditioning system, evaporate after throttling by the expansion valve, absorb the heat of the coolant in the battery cooling circuit, and take away the heat of the coolant through heat exchange, thereby cooling the battery.

[0003] The basic structure of the battery cooler includes two coolant inlet and outlet pipes, two refrigerant inlet and outlet pipes, a heat exchanger body and an external evaporator. The heat exchanger body is made of stacked plate heat exchangers. The coolant and refrigerant flow into the heat exchanger body in the form of convection, separated by interlayers to form a sandwich structure to achieve convection heat transfer. The efficiency of the battery cooler is affected by factors such as its power size, water pump power, coolant flow rate, and refrigerant flow rate. Due to the internal space limitations of the vehicle body, it is not advisable to use a heat exchanger that is too large as a battery cooler to enhance the heat exchange effect. Therefore, a compact and small plate heat exchanger is generally used.

[0004] Based on the above technical problems, technicians in this field urgently need to develop a cooler bracket structure. Utility Model Content
