[0024] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a thermal management system for a range-extended new energy vehicle, including a compressor 1, a water-cooled condenser 2, a liquid receiver 3, an expansion valve 4, a cooler 5, a ten-way valve 6, a PTC electric heater 7, a heater core 8, a water-cooled core 9, a battery 11, a first radiator 12, a motor 13, a second radiator 14, and an engine 16. The cooler 5 has a refrigerant passage and a water passage for heat exchange. On the refrigerant side, the refrigerant passages of the compressor 1, water-cooled condenser 2, liquid receiver 3, expansion valve 4, and cooler 5 are sequentially connected through a first circuit 101, and the refrigerant circulates within the first circuit 101. The first radiator 12, motor 13, and water-cooled condenser 2 are sequentially connected through a second circuit 102. The engine 16 is not only connected to the second radiator 14 through a third circuit 103, but also connected to the ten-way valve 6 through a fourth circuit 104. On the water side, battery 11 is connected to ten-way valve 6 via fifth circuit 105, water-cooled core 9 is connected to ten-way valve 6 via sixth circuit 106, and heater core 8, PTC electric heater 7, and ten-way valve 6 are connected via seventh circuit 107. Ten-way valve 6 is connected to the water channel of cooler 5. By setting ten-way valve 6 to couple battery 11, water-cooled core 9, heater core 8, and engine 16 into the system, and in conjunction with the aforementioned integrated refrigerant-side components, the system can meet a wide range of usage scenarios. In addition to cooling and heating the vehicle's passenger compartment, it can also connect engine 16 to ten-way valve 6 to recover waste heat from engine 16 to the water side, improving waste heat recovery efficiency. Furthermore, due to the setting of ten-way valve 6 and water-cooled core 9, the second radiator 14 and engine 16 no longer need to be connected to the evaporator, but are directly connected to ten-way valve 6 and coupled to the water side through ten-way valve 6. This simplifies the structure of refrigerant-side components and increases integration.

[0026] In this embodiment, the ten-way valve 6 has ten ports, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the ten interfaces are interface a, interface b, interface c, interface d, interface e, interface f, interface g, interface h, interface i, and interface j.

[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, when the range-extended electric vehicle's thermal management system operates in engine waste heat recovery mode, of the ten ports of the ten-way valve 6, port a is connected to ports b and c respectively, and port f is connected to ports e and d respectively. When the water-cooled outlet of engine 16 is connected to port a through the fourth circuit 104, port f is connected to the water-cooled inlet of engine 16 through the fourth circuit 104. Port b is connected to the water-cooled inlet of battery 11 through the fifth circuit 105, and the water-cooled outlet of battery 11 is connected to port e through the fifth circuit 105. Port c is connected to the water-cooled inlet of heater core 8 through the seventh circuit 107, and the water-cooled outlet of PTC electric heater 7 is connected to port d through the seventh circuit 107.

[0028] In this mode, the waste heat from engine 16 is transferred via ten-way valve 6 to the seventh circuit 107 containing heater core 8 and the fifth circuit 105 containing battery 11. The high-temperature coolant flowing through engine 16 flows through the engine 16's water-cooled outlet channel to interface a of ten-way valve 6. A portion of the high-temperature coolant flows out from interface c of ten-way valve 6 and enters heater core 8, then is further heated by PTC electric heater 7 and returns to ten-way valve 6 via interface d. Another portion of the high-temperature coolant flows out from interface b of ten-way valve 6 and enters battery 11, heating battery 11 before returning to ten-way valve 6 via interface e. The two coolant streams converge at ten-way valve 6 and return to engine 16 via interface f, forming a coolant circulation. In this embodiment, a second water pump 202 is also installed on the fourth circuit 104. The second water pump 202 drives the high-temperature coolant from the engine 16's water-cooled outlet channel to interface a. A third water pump 203 is also installed on the fifth circuit 105. The third water pump 203 is used to drive the coolant after heating the battery 11 to flow to the interface e. A fifth water pump 205 is also installed on the seventh circuit 107. The fifth water pump 205 is used to drive the coolant from the water-cooled outlet of the heater core 8 to the PTC electric heater 7.

[0029] In this mode, high-temperature coolant flows through the heater core 8 to enhance the heat exchange efficiency of the heater core 8 with the air and improve the heating effect on the passenger compartment. In this embodiment, the range-extended electric vehicle thermal management system also includes a blower 10, which is used to drive air to exchange heat with the heater core 8 so as to bring the heated gas into the passenger compartment.

[0030] In this mode, the coolant in the second circuit 102 circulates between the motor 13, the water-cooled condenser 2, and the first heat dissipation tank 12. In this embodiment, a first water pump 201 is also provided on the second circuit 102, which is used to drive the coolant in the second circuit 102 to continuously circulate.

[0031] like Figure 3As shown, when the range-extended electric vehicle's thermal management system operates in dehumidification mode, interface i is connected to interfaces e and h respectively, interface j is connected to interfaces b and g respectively, and interface d is connected to interface c. The water-cooling inlet of cooler 5 is connected to interface i, and the water-cooling outlet of cooler 5 is connected to interface j. Interface b is connected to the water-cooling inlet of battery 11 through the fifth circuit 105, and the water-cooling outlet of battery 11 is connected to interface e through the fifth circuit 105. Interface g is connected to the water-cooling inlet of water-cooled core 9 through the sixth circuit 106, and the water-cooling outlet of water-cooled core 9 is connected to interface h through the sixth circuit 106. Interface c is connected to the water-cooling inlet of heater core 8 through the seventh circuit 107, and the water-cooling outlet of PTC electric heater 7 is connected to interface d through the seventh circuit 107.

[0032] In this mode, the low-temperature superheated refrigerant gas is drawn into compressor 1 and compressed into a high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant. It then enters the water-cooled condenser 2 to condense and release heat. After passing through the liquid storage tank 3 and being throttled by the expansion valve 4, it enters the cooler 5 to absorb heat. The refrigerant becomes a superheated gas and flows into the suction port of compressor 1 to enter the next cycle. Meanwhile, the low-temperature coolant cooled in the water channel of cooler 5 enters the ten-way valve 6 through interface j, and is divided into two parts, flowing into the fifth circuit 105 where battery 11 is located and the sixth circuit 106 where the water-cooled core 9 is located, respectively. After cooling is completed, it returns to the water channel of cooler 5. A fourth water pump 204 is also installed on the sixth circuit 106, which drives the coolant to flow from the water-cooled outlet of the water-cooled core 9 to interface h. A third water pump 203 is also installed on the fifth circuit 105, which drives the coolant cooled from battery 11 to flow to interface e.

[0033] In this mode, the low-temperature coolant from the water channel outlet of the cooler 5 enters the ten-way valve 6 via interface j, and then enters the water-cooled core 9 through the sixth circuit 106 via interface g. The coolant in the water-cooled core 9 exchanges heat with the air, so that the cold energy released by the water-cooled core 9 can cool the passenger cabin. The high-humidity air will condense and precipitate moisture after cooling, thereby achieving the purpose of dehumidification in the passenger cabin. In this embodiment, the blower 10 is used to drive the air to exchange heat with the water-cooled core 9. In addition, the seventh circuit 107 where the heater core 8 is located is also connected to the ten-way valve 6 via interfaces c and d. The coolant can then enter the PTC electric heater 7 in the seventh circuit 107 for heating. The cooled air is also heated and flows into the heater core 8, so that the low-temperature air after dehumidification is heated by the heater core 8 before being delivered to the passenger cabin to meet the comfort requirements of the passenger cabin. In this embodiment, a fifth water pump 205 is also provided on the seventh circuit 107. The fifth water pump 205 is used to drive the coolant to flow from the water-cooled outlet of the heater core 8 to the PTC electric heater 7.

[0034] In this mode, the coolant in the second circuit 102 circulates between the motor 13, the water-cooled condenser 2, and the first radiator 12. The range-extended new energy vehicle thermal management system provided in this embodiment also includes a fan 15, which drives air to exchange heat with the first radiator 12. The heat of the coolant is carried away, and the coolant returns to the water-cooling inlet of the motor 13 via the first water pump 201 to cool the motor 13 and continuously circulate.

[0035] In this mode, the coolant in the third circuit 103 circulates between the engine 16 and the second radiator 14. In this embodiment, a second water pump 202 is also installed on the third circuit 103. The second water pump 202 drives the high-temperature coolant from the water-cooled outlet of the engine 16 into the second radiator 14. The range-extended electric vehicle thermal management system provided in this embodiment also includes a fan 15. The fan 15 drives air to exchange heat with the second radiator 14, carrying away the heat from the coolant. The coolant then returns to the water-cooled inlet of the engine 16 via the second water pump 202 to cool the engine 16 and continues to circulate.

[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, when the range-extended electric vehicle's thermal management system is running in heating mode, interface a is connected to interface f, interface d is connected to interfaces b and c respectively, and interface e is connected to interface c. The water-cooled outlet of engine 16 is connected to interface a through the fourth circuit 104, and interface f is connected to the water-cooled inlet of engine 16 through the fourth circuit 104. The water-cooled outlet of PTC electric heater 7 is connected to interface d through the seventh circuit 107, and interface c is connected to the water-cooled inlet of heater core 8 through the seventh circuit 107. Interface b is connected to the water-cooled inlet of battery 11 through the fifth circuit 105, and the water-cooled outlet of battery 11 is connected to interface e through the fifth circuit 105.

[0037] In this mode, the fifth water pump 205 drives the coolant into the PTC electric heater 7 in the seventh circuit 107. After being heated, the coolant enters the ten-way valve 6 through interface d and splits into two paths. One path of coolant flows into the heater core 8 through interface c and then returns to the fifth water pump 205. The other path of coolant flows into the fifth circuit 105 containing the battery 11 through interface b to heat the battery 11. Then, it is driven by the third water pump 203 through interfaces e and c to return to the heater core 8. In this embodiment, the blower 10 drives the air to exchange heat with the heater core 8. After the air is heated, the warm air is carried into the passenger compartment by the blower 10, thereby heating the passenger compartment.

[0038] In this mode, the coolant in the fourth circuit 104 is driven by the second water pump 202 to circulate between the water-cooled outlet of the engine 16 and the water-cooled inlet of the engine 16 to achieve heat storage in the engine 16.

[0039] In this mode, the coolant in the second circuit 102 circulates between the motor 13, the water-cooled condenser 2, and the first radiator 12. The fan 15 drives the air to exchange heat with the first radiator 12, and the heat of the coolant is carried away. The coolant returns to the water-cooling inlet of the motor 13 via the first water pump 201 to cool the motor 13 and continue to circulate.

[0040] like Figure 5 As shown, when the range-extended electric vehicle's thermal management system operates in cooling mode, interface i is connected to interfaces e and h, respectively, and interface j is connected to interfaces b and g, respectively. The water-cooling inlet of cooler 5 is connected to interface i, and the water-cooling outlet of cooler 5 is connected to interface j. Interface b is connected to the water-cooling inlet of battery 11 through the fifth circuit 105, and the water-cooling outlet of battery 11 is connected to interface e through the fifth circuit 105. Interface g is connected to the water-cooling inlet of water-cooled core 9 through the sixth circuit 106, and the water-cooling outlet of water-cooled core 9 is connected to interface h through the sixth circuit 106.

[0041] In this mode, the low-temperature superheated refrigerant gas is drawn into the compressor 1 and compressed into a high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant. It then enters the water-cooled condenser 2 to condense and release heat. After passing through the liquid receiver 3 and being throttled by the expansion valve 4, it enters the cooler 5 to absorb heat. The refrigerant becomes a superheated gas and flows into the suction port of the compressor 1 to enter the next cycle. Meanwhile, the low-temperature coolant cooled in the water channel of the cooler 5 enters the ten-way valve 6 through interface j, and is divided into two parts, flowing into the fifth circuit 105 where the battery 11 is located and the sixth circuit 106 where the water-cooled core 9 is located, respectively. After cooling is completed, it returns to the water channel of the cooler 5.

[0042] In this mode, the low-temperature coolant from the water channel outlet of cooler 5 enters the ten-way valve 6 via interface j. A portion passes through interface g and the sixth circuit 106 into the water-cooled core 9. The coolant in the water-cooled core 9 then exchanges heat with the air, allowing the cooling energy released by the water-cooled core 9 to cool the passenger cabin. It is then driven back to interface h by the fourth water pump 204. Another portion passes through interface b and the fifth circuit 105 into the battery 11, cooling the battery. It is then driven back to interface e by the third water pump 203. The two portions of coolant converge at the ten-way valve 6 and then return to the water channel of cooler 5 via interface i. In this embodiment, blower 10 is used to drive air to exchange heat with the water-cooled core 9. The cooling energy released by the water-cooled core 9 is carried into the passenger cabin by blower 10, thereby cooling the passenger cabin.

[0043] In this mode, the coolant in the second circuit 102 circulates between the motor 13, the water-cooled condenser 2, and the first radiator 12. The fan 15 drives the air to exchange heat with the first radiator 12, and the heat of the coolant is carried away. The coolant returns to the water-cooling inlet of the motor 13 via the first water pump 201 to cool the motor 13 and continue to circulate.

[0044] In this mode, the coolant in the third circuit 103 circulates between the engine 16 and the second radiator 14. The fan 15 drives air to exchange heat with the second radiator 14, and the heat of the coolant is carried away. The coolant is then returned to the water-cooled inlet of the engine 16 via the second water pump 202 to cool the engine 16 and continues to circulate.

[0045] Optionally, the range-extended new energy vehicle thermal management system also includes a three-way valve. The engine 16 is connected to the second radiator 14 through the first passage of the three-way valve to form a third circuit 103. The engine 16 is connected to the ten-way valve 6 through the second passage of the three-way valve to form a fourth circuit 104. The second water pump 202 is located between the engine 16 and the three-way valve, so that the second water pump 202 can be in the third circuit 103 and the fourth circuit 104.
