Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of batteries, in particular to an electric vehicle battery pack with coupled heating and heat dissipation functions and a battery module heat management unit thereof.
Background
The invention discloses a Chinese patent with the application number of CN201711387240.1, relates to the technical field of battery thermal management, and discloses a battery pack thermal management system and a battery pack, and aims to solve the technical problem that a plurality of battery modules can be subjected to temperature regulation respectively. The main technical scheme adopted is as follows: a battery pack thermal management system, comprising: the main liquid circulation pipeline is internally provided with a circulating water pump, a heater and a radiator; the branch liquid circulating pipelines are sequentially connected in parallel between an output port and an input port of the main liquid circulating pipeline; the flow regulating valves are respectively arranged in the branch liquid circulating pipelines; the plurality of heat exchangers are respectively connected with the plurality of liquid circulation pipelines, and the plurality of heat exchangers are respectively used for being connected with the plurality of battery modules and used for carrying out thermal regulation on the battery modules. The invention provides a battery pack thermal management system which can be used for simultaneously adjusting the temperature of a plurality of battery modules.
Such as the battery pack thermal management system disclosed in the above-identified patent, there are relatively few battery packs that couple the heating and heat dissipation efficiencies.
In addition, as for the heat dissipation technology of the battery pack heat management system in the prior art, air cooling is simple, convenient and feasible, but the air has low heat transfer efficiency and low cooling speed, and is easily influenced by the environmental temperature; compared with liquid cooling and air cooling, the heat transfer coefficient of liquid is generally higher than that of air, and the boundary layer of liquid is thinner, so that the heat conductivity of the liquid is higher, the liquid cooling technology has a better heat dissipation effect, but liquid leakage is easily caused, the arrangement of pipelines is more complex, the cost is higher, and the maintenance of a system is more difficult; compared with the two cooling modes, the phase-change material cooling mode has the advantages that as the phase-change material is low in heat conductivity coefficient and needs to be subjected to leakage-proof design when the volume expands during phase change, the system is complex; the heat pipe is an efficient heat conduction device, and is an ideal cooling method when applied to battery heat management. However, in the current research, the working media in the heat pipe are mainly water, ethanol, acetone and the like with low heat conductivity coefficient, and the shape of the heat pipe cannot be well matched with the battery, so that the high-efficiency heat dissipation of the heat pipe is limited.
In terms of the heating technology of the battery pack heat management system in the prior art, the battery needs to be charged and discharged in an internal heating mode in a cold region and a low-temperature environment, so that the performance of the battery is attenuated. And the self-heating mode, the battery pack is heated by using the third electrode is a great technical challenge, the self structure of the battery is changed, once the temperature control switch fails, the battery is heated out of control, certain potential safety hazards exist, and the reliability of the battery pack needs to be further researched. The external heating mode is safe and easy to realize, but the energy loss is large and the heating speed is slow. Meanwhile, the heating power of the external heating mode is easily limited by the risk of local overheating, so that the temperature of the battery is increased unevenly. If the air heating system has blind areas which cannot be reached in the battery box, the temperature has uncertainty, and compared with the air heating system, the heating mode utilizing the liquid heat flow can obtain higher heat transfer efficiency. However, the traditional method for introducing liquid into the bottom of the battery box has higher requirements on the sealing performance of the battery box, and the reliability of the battery box is more difficult to guarantee.
In summary, the battery pack thermal management system of the prior art has problems of less coupled heating and heat dissipation, and lower reliability by adopting a liquid heat conduction mode.

the materials of the first heat exchange section 110 and the second heat exchange section 130 of the pulsating heat pipe 100 are both hard metal materials, such as copper, and the material of the heat insulation section 120 is flexible material; the first heat exchange section 110 of the pulsating heat pipe 100 is connected with a bracket 111 which can move relative to the battery unit, and the bracket 111 is connected with a linear driving mechanism for driving the bracket 111 to move along the long side of the pulsating heat pipe 100;
the bracket 111 drives the first heat exchange section 110 to move relative to the battery unit in the plane of the pulsating heat pipe 100 in the process of linear movement by the linear driving mechanism, so that the first heat exchange section 110 can be in heat conduction contact with a larger area on the surface of the battery unit;
on the other hand, the first heat exchange segment 110 moves relative to the second heat exchange segment 130 in the plane of the pulsating heat pipe 100, and the heat insulation segment 120 transitions between a straight shape and a curved shape as the distance changes, so that it is necessary to keep the stroke of the first heat exchange segment 110 less than 1/5 of the length of the heat insulation segment 120 to keep the heat conduction effect of the pulsating heat pipe 100 continuous.
The linear driving mechanism can be selected from but not limited to a ball screw pair, an air cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder and a winch which are connected with a motor;
the support 111 and the battery unit can move, and the support 111 and the battery unit are connected through a linear sliding rail.
The filling rate of the pulsating heat pipe 100 is 46-53%. Tests show that the first heat exchange section 110 can still have the heat conduction effect when moving to the low position under the condition that the filling rate is within the range.
