  • Publication number: 20240166087
    Abstract: A heat management system includes an electronic control unit configured to determine at least one route section-related historical heating or cooling effect profile based on heat management-relevant data of a navigation system acquired for a predefined period, acquire, for the same predefined period, a route section-related historic temperature profile by sensor for each component, determine at least one route section-related predicted heating or cooling effect profile based on the heat management-relevant data of the navigation system, which are predictable for at least one predefined horizon, and ascertain a predicted temperature profile for each component on the basis of the historic heating or cooling effect profile, the historical temperature profile, and the predicted heating or cooling effect profile.

  • Publication number: 20240075788
    Abstract: An air-conditioning system for an electrified motor vehicle with an interior and a high-voltage accumulator, includes an air-conditioning installation and an electronic control unit. The air-conditioning installation air-conditions both the interior and the high-voltage accumulator. The control unit implements a preconditioning mode during charging of the parked vehicle before a journey begins in such a way that: (a) at least the length of the route and the outside temperature over the length of the route can be predicted, and (b) in that, depending on the prediction, the high-voltage accumulator can be used as: (i) a heat accumulator, when the predicted outside temperature over the length of the route is lower than the heating threshold target temperature required by the high-voltage accumulator, or (ii) a cold accumulator, when the predicted outside temperature over the length of the route is greater than the heating threshold target temperature required by the high-voltage accumulator.
