[0002] With the progress of battery technology, the battery energy density is increasing, which makes the heat phenomenon in the process of battery charging and discharging more and more serious. In a single standard energy storage container, the increasing battery pack occupies more and more space, making the installable space of the temperature control equipment smaller and smaller. At the same time, the refrigeration and heating capacity of the temperature control equipment needs to be continuously increased to match the continuously increasing battery heating capacity, so that the design of the temperature control equipment in the current energy storage industry is very compact, and the types and power of the components in the electric control cabinet of the equipment are increasing, and the heat generation of the electric control box increases.

[0003] At present, the common cooling method for the electric control box of the energy storage temperature control equipment is to increase the heat dissipation area by adding aluminum heat dissipation fins or install a fan for heat dissipation. Because the energy storage container is installed in a wide range of environments, the maximum use environment temperature can reach 55℃, and the temperature in summer exceeds 45℃, so the effect of the above-mentioned electric control box heat dissipation device is not obvious in high temperature environment. It often leads to high temperature in the electric control box, affecting the normal use of the equipment. And whether it is a fan or uses aluminum fins for heat dissipation, it will open a large area of holes on the electric control box, damaging the overall sealing of the electric control box. At the same time, the heat dissipation aluminum fins and the heat dissipation fan have a large volume, which is not friendly to the design of the whole machine. SUMMARY

[0008] The outlet end of the capillary tube is connected with the refrigerant inlet end of the evaporator, and the refrigerant outlet end of the evaporator is connected with the inlet end of the compressor.

[0009] Preferably, the spiral plane is perpendicular to the air outlet direction of the air outlet of the fan.

[0010] Preferably, the condenser is further connected with a condenser fan, and the condenser fan is used for air cooling heat dissipation of the condenser.

[0013] Preferably, the outlet end of the condenser is further connected with a throttle valve, and the throttle valve is connected with the refrigerant inlet end of the evaporator.

[0014] In specific implementation, when the electric control box needs to be cooled, the electromagnetic valve is opened, the high-pressure refrigerant flowing out of the outlet end of the condenser passes through the capillary tube, the refrigerant gradually depressurizes due to the resistance inside the capillary tube, and starts to evaporate and absorb heat, taking away the heat around the capillary tube, the cold around the capillary tube is blown to the inside of the electric control box by the fan, and the cooling work is completed.
