  • Publication number: 20240258601
    Abstract: Disclosed are a composite heating system, and a heating method and heating apparatus thereof. Two heaters are provided in a heating apparatus of a liquid heating system of the composite heating system. The two heaters are connected to an external power source interface module and a battery pack output power source interface module by a relay group. In the disclosure, by controlling relays in the relay group, during charging preheating, the first heater and the second heater are able to be powered by an external power source and be self-powered by batteries in a battery pack, respectively. When the two heaters are self-powered by batteries in the battery pack, a pulse discharge manner is used, thereby increasing a heating efficiency of the liquid heating system in a low-temperature environment, and increasing a temperature increasing speed of batteries.
