Abstract :
[en] Regulation in terms of greenhouse gas emissions becomes more and more stringent and the fuel consumption targets decrease.
In order to meet these demands, vehicle electrification has increased over the last decade.
With the arrival of plug-in hybrids and battery electric vehicles, efficient battery cooling system becomes a necessity and has to be integrated into the vehicle thermal management.
One of the possibility is to integrate a chiller in the air conditioning system for extreme operating points.
Moreover, this kind of system can be dedicated to luxury or large passenger cars for which a secondary evaporator is present to guarantee the comfort for rear passengers.
The main challenge of this air-conditioning architecture is to maintain simultaneously the cabin thermal comfort via one or two evaporators on one hand and to maintain the battery cells in an ideal temperature range on the other hand.
