Thermal energy control method for vehicle

A thermal energy control system comprising:

• a controller;
• and
• a data detector;
• an electrical heater,
• wherein the controller is communicatively connected to the data detector and the electrical heater, and
• wherein the controller is configured to:
• determine whether a state-of-charge of a battery is greater than or equal to 30% based on data received from data detector;
• determine whether a battery temperature is higher than 10° C. based on data received from the data detector and based on determining that the state-of-charge of the battery is greater than or equal to 30%;
• determine whether an ambient air temperature is higher than −20° C. based on data received from the data detector;
• operate the electric heater based on determining that the ambient air temperature is lower than or equal to −20° C.;
• determine whether the battery temperature is higher than a target temperature and a vehicle interior temperature is higher than a user-set temperature based on data from the data detector;
• and
• terminate the active thermal management based on determining that the battery temperature is higher than the target temperature and the vehicle interior temperature is higher than the user-set temperature.

A thermal energy control method comprising:

• determining, by a controller, whether a state-of-charge of a battery is greater than or equal to a preset state of charge based on data from a data detector;
• determining, by the controller, whether a battery temperature is higher than a first battery temperature based on data received from the data detector and based on determining that the state-of-charge of the battery is greater than or equal to preset state of charge;
• determining, by the controller, whether an ambient air temperature is higher than a negative temperature based on data received from the data detector;
• determining, by the controller, whether the battery temperature is higher than a target temperature and a vehicle interior temperature is higher than a user-set temperature based on data received from the data detector;
• and
• terminating the active thermal management control based on determining that the battery temperature is higher than the target temperature and the vehicle interior temperature is higher than the user-set temperature.
