Heating and cooling system for a vehicle including a thermophysical battery

Abstract

A heating and cooling system for a vehicle included within a radiator module having a plurality of fins. At least two thermophysical batteries are provided, each including an adsorption bed unit and an evaporator condenser unit. At least one upper coolant line extends along the adsorption bed unit of each of the thermophysical batteries and is configured to be connected to a source of waste heat of the vehicle for transferring heat from the source of waste heat to a coolant contained in the coolant line and to the adsorption bed units to recharge the adsorption bed unit. At least one distribution element configured in discharge mode to convey heated fluids from adjacent the adsorption bed units or cooled fluids from adjacent to the evaporator condenser units to another region of the vehicle.
