Abstract
A reservoir tank for integrated heat management, the reservoir tank having a first reservoir part, connected to an electric parts line connected to an electric parts core, for storing therein cooling fluid flowing into and out of the electric parts line, as well as a second reservoir part, connected to a battery line connected to a high-voltage battery core, for storing therein cooling fluid flowing into and out of the battery line, separated from the cooling fluid stored in the first reservoir part.
Claims11
An integrated heat management module comprising:
- a reservoir tank comprising,
- a first reservoir part connected to an electronic equipment component line connected to an electronic equipment component core such that cooling water flowing into/out of the electronic equipment component line is stored in the first reservoir part;
- and
- a second reservoir part connected to a battery line connected to a high-voltage battery core such that cooling water flowing into/out of the battery line is stored in the second reservoir part separately from the cooling water stored in the first reservoir part,
- a chiller directly or indirectly coupled so as to be integrally connected to the reservoir tank such that refrigerant and cooling water, which flow in/out, respectively, exchange heat with each other;
- a first pump connected to a first discharge opening through which cooling water is discharged from the first reservoir part so as to circulate cooling water through the electronic equipment component line;
- a first valve configured to adjust cooling water in the first reservoir part and cooling water that has passed through the chiller so as to selectively flow into the first pump;
- a second pump connected to a second discharge opening through which cooling water is discharged from the second reservoir part so as to circulate cooling water through the battery line;
- and
- a second valve configured to adjust cooling water in the second reservoir part and cooling water that has passed through the chiller so as to selectively flow into the second pump.
