Research on control strategy of electric vehicle thermal management system motor

Abstract

Abstract The low efficiency and difficulty in low-temperature heating are the challenges currently faced by the thermal management system of new energy vehicles. A multi-heat source vehicle thermal management system for waste heat cascade recovery and utilization was proposed, and the performance of the vehicle thermal management system was studied through a combination of component testing and one-dimensional simulation. Based on a one-dimensional simulation model, the characteristics of the motor waste heat source are analyzed. The increase in the inlet water temperature of the motor coolant will lead to enhanced heat dissipation of the motor to the air, resulting in a waste of motor waste heat. Based on the results of the analysis, an energy cascade management strategy is constructed. The optimal heating mode is selected by collecting temperature signals such as motors, and the cut-off valve is controlled through logic gates to achieve flexible switching of different modes. The system effectively reduces the energy consumption of thermal management systems, which is of great significance for developing thermal management systems for new energy vehicles.
