Thermal management system for a motor vehicle, and motor vehicle having such a thermal management system
View Patent ↗A thermal management system for a motor vehicle includes a drive motor, a first connection having a first valve device, a radiator, a second connection having a second valve device, a motor circuit pump, a chiller, and a traction battery. The second valve device is switchable in such a way that, in addition to a first radiator bypass, a second radiator bypass can also be realized. A motor vehicle having such a thermal management system is also disclosed.
1. A thermal management system for a motor vehicle, comprising:
a motor circuit in which at least one drive motor, a first connection, a radiator, a second connection, and a motor-circuit pump are arranged in series;
a battery line comprising a chiller and, in series therewith, a bypass/battery parallel connection with a traction battery and with a battery bypass parallel thereto, wherein the chiller is configured to be flowed through from a refrigeration circuit fluidically separated from the battery line,
wherein the first connection is arranged in the motor circuit downstream of the drive motor and upstream of the radiator, and wherein the first connection comprises a first valve device configured to selectively introduce coolant into the battery line,
wherein the second connection is arranged downstream of the radiator and upstream of the drive motor, and wherein the second connection comprises a second valve device configured to selectively:
conduct coolant to the drive motor; and/or
connect the chiller and the traction battery to form a ring-like battery circuit,
a third connection between the battery line and the motor circuit, wherein the chiller is arranged in the battery line between the first connection and the third connection,
wherein a first radiator bypass is configured to be formed via the third connection, the battery bypass, and the second connection; and
a second radiator bypass that branches off from the motor circuit downstream of the drive motor and upstream of the radiator and opens into the motor circuit downstream of the radiator and upstream of the drive motor.
2. The thermal management system according to claim 1 , comprising:
an electric heater arranged in the battery line.
3. The thermal management system according to claim 1 , wherein the second radiator bypass is free of heat sinks or heat sources.
4. The thermal management system according to claim 1 , wherein the second radiator bypass opens into the second connection.
5. The thermal management system according to claim 1 , comprising:
a battery pump arranged in the battery line.
6. The thermal management system according to claim 1 , comprising:
a condenser line that runs between the second connection and the first connection, wherein the condenser line has a condenser, wherein the condenser, fluidically separated from the condenser line, is configured to be flowed through from the refrigeration circuit.
7. The thermal management system according to claim 1 , wherein the second valve device has at least three switching positions, wherein,
in a first switching position, the battery line is connected in series with the drive motor;
in a second switching position, the chiller and the bypass/battery parallel connection are able to be connected to form the battery circuit that is closed in a ring-like manner, and the second radiator bypass is blocked; and
in a third switching position, the chiller and the bypass/battery parallel connection are able to be connected to form the battery circuit that is closed in a ring-like manner, and the second radiator bypass is connected in series with the drive motor.
8. A motor vehicle comprising:
the thermal management system according to claim 1 .
