Thermal conditioning system for a vehicle

A vehicle comprising a thermal conditioning system and a cabin,

• wherein the thermal conditioning system comprises a fan, a first heat exchanger, an outside air duct, a cabin air duct, a sensor, and a control unit,
• wherein the fan is configured to generate a flow of air,
• wherein the first heat exchanger is arranged to transfer heat to the flow of air,
• wherein the thermal conditioning system is configured to be operated in a first mode and a second mode,
• wherein, in the first mode, the fan rotates in a first direction to direct the flow of air along a first flow path,
• wherein, in the second mode, the fan rotates in a second direction opposite to the first direction to direct the flow of air along a second flow path,
• wherein the first flow path extends from an environment outside the vehicle through the outside air duct to the first heat exchanger and subsequently from the first heat exchanger through the cabin air duct into the cabin, and
• wherein the second flow path extends from the first heat exchanger via the outside air duct to the environment outside the vehicle,
• wherein the sensor is arranged to provide a signal representative of a temperature of a heat generating component,
• wherein the control unit is configured to switch the thermal conditioning system between the first mode and the second mode based on the signal,
• wherein the thermal conditioning system is adapted to transfer more heat from the first heat exchanger to the flow of air in the second mode than in the first mode,
• the vehicle further comprising the heat generating component, wherein the sensor is arranged to provide the signal representative of the temperature of the heat generating component.
