In view of its low energy consumption and zero emission, electric vehicles are gradually emerging as a key force and important means to achieve this ambitious goal. With the enhancement of environmental awareness and the progress of science and technology, pure electric vehicles (EV) have gradually become the mainstream of modern transportation tools. However, the temperature management of batteries and motors becomes a major challenge for pure electric vehicles in long-time driving or high-temperature environments.

Efficient temperature control of battery and motor: In the process of driving, the battery and motor as the core components, their working temperature directly affects the performance, life and safety of the vehicle. In high temperature conditions, the battery and motor are easy to overheat, leading to performance decline or even damage; while in low temperature environment, the battery performance will also be significantly affected, and the charging and discharging efficiency will be greatly reduced.
[0005] 2. System complexity and cost problem: The traditional thermal management system structure is complex, which not only increases the overall weight and cost of the vehicle, but also brings inconvenience in maintenance.
[0006] 3. Poor environmental adaptability: The climate conditions in different regions and seasons are quite different, which puts higher requirements on the thermal management system of electric vehicles.
[0007] 4. Energy utilization efficiency problem: In low temperature environment, the performance of the battery is limited, which not only affects the range of the vehicle, but also may accelerate the aging of the battery due to frequent charging and discharging operations. The current thermal management system of pure electric vehicles cannot effectively solve all the above problems, and there is a contradiction between the thermal management performance and the system complexity, which limits the performance of the battery.
