HEAT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18595583 titled 'HEAT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

The abstract describes a heat management system that includes an electrical storage device, a drive unit, a radiator, a chiller, and a switching unit.

  • The electrical storage device exchanges heat with a first channel.
  • The drive unit exchanges heat with a second channel.
  • The radiator is provided in a third channel.
  • The chiller is provided in a fourth channel.
  • The switching unit isolates the first channel when the electrical storage device is heated.
  • The switching unit forms a circuit for the heat medium to circulate through the second and third channels.
  • The switching unit forms a circuit for the heat medium to circulate only through the fourth channel.

Original Abstract Submitted

A heat management system includes an electrical storage device configured to exchange heat with a first channel, a drive unit configured to exchange heat with a second channel, a radiator provided in a third channel, a chiller provided in a fourth channel, and a switching unit. The switching unit is configured to, when the electrical storage device is heated, isolate the first channel from the other channels, cause a circuit with which a heat medium circulates through the second channel and the third channel to be formed, and cause a circuit with which the heat medium circulates through only the fourth channel to be formed.
