Control system for thermal management and distribution

A thermal management and distribution control system, comprising:

• a cabin heating circuit including a heat source, a first pump, and a heater core;
• a battery heating circuit including a first flow path, a second flow path, and a heat exchanger, the first flow path being connected to the cabin heating circuit via a three-way flow control valve in such a manner that the heat exchanger and the heater core are installed in parallel, a second pump and a battery heat exchanger being installed on the second flow path, the first flow path and the second flow path being independent of each other, and the heat exchanger performing heat exchange between a coolant in the first flow path and a coolant in the second flow path;
• and
• a control unit, including at least one processor, being configured to adjust an output of the heat source, an opening degree of a three-way flow rate control valve, an output of the first pump, and an output of the second pump, wherein
• the control unit is configured to adjust the output of the first pump and/or the output of the second pump, if a cabin and a battery are heated simultaneously.
