Thermal management system with dual mode coolant loops
Vincent George Johnston,Andrew David Baglino,Scott Ira Kohn,Vineet Haresh Mehta,Christopher David Gadda,Curt Raymond O'Donnell,Wulfer Adrijan de Bruijn +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a dual-mode, thermal management system for use in a vehicle is described, which includes a first coolant loop in thermal communication with a battery system, a second coolant loops in thermal communications with at least one drive train component (e.g., electric motor, power electronics, inverter), and a dual mode valve system that provides means for selecting between a first mode where the two cooling loops operate in parallel and a second mode where they operate in series.
Patent
Ev multi-mode thermal management system
TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-mode vehicle thermal management system is provided that allows efficient thermal communication between a refrigerant-based thermal control loop and three non-refrigerant based thermal control loops.
Patent
Thermal management system for use with an integrated motor assembly
Peter Dore Rawlinson,Nicholas John Sampson,Nicholas Kalayjian,Vincent George Johnston,David Fred Nelson,Gary Allen Pinkley,Wulfer Adrijan de Bruijn,Benjamin David Dettmann,Nicolas Verzeni,Michael Kubba,Edwin M. Pearce,Jim Robbins +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an integrated drive system assembly is provided that combines an electric motor, a power inverter assembly and a gearbox into a single, multi-piece enclosure, which reduces weight, reduces drive system complexity, reduces system volume, simplifies assembly integration into an electric vehicle, reduces manufacturing cost and simplifies component cooling by allowing the use of a common thermal management system.
Patent
Morphing vehicle user interface
TL;DR: In this article, a method for operating a vehicle user interface is provided, the user interface utilizing a touch-screen display mounted within the vehicle, the interface allows a user to utilize any of a variety of different control interaction techniques, all to achieve the same function.
Patent
Battery Centric Thermal Management System Utilizing a Heat Exchanger Blending Valve
Curt Raymond O'Donnell,Christoph Eisenbarth,Stefan Forrest Campbell,Jacob Edward Oberlin,Andrew David Baglino,Vincent George Johnston,Donald Paul Yuhasz +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a method of regulating thermal dissipation from a vehicle battery pack is provided in which a bypass valve is used to control the amount of battery pack coolant either passing through, or bypassing, a heat exchanger.
