On Ioniq 6, EV6 and the Genesis GV60 Hyundiai/Kia did change to an single coolant loop (only one reservoir). The theory is that the Ioniq 5 (as the first E-GMP vehicle) was initally planned using oil cooling for the motors and therefore the two coolant loops. Only late in the development they moved to water based cooling when it was too late to change a lot of stuff. This was then be done on the EV6 which availability was 6 month later.

Trust me the PTC heater (Electric Duct Heater) does work and is needed in extreme cold. Its also is 100% efficient and cold, but not extreme temps, it's redundant. It works great and only when needed. Tested to -15F and cabin was toasty so fast. The heat pump seems to work into the single digits. Also the PTC is 100% sized to fully heat the cabin as well as the heat pump (6kW each). Morning warm up in the Winter is extremely fast int he Ioniq 5. I did a bunch of -15F to 72F tests last winter. Amazing! Much better than the Mach E Fluid PTC heater and heater core for sure. Another fun fact is battery heating, Down to -10F, the Hyundai does not heat the battery. The primary use of the battery heater is for fast DCFC in Winter Time. Their battery derating is minimal for cold use (unlike the Mach E).

Welcome back Alex, having the annotation of the acronyms is useful in keeping things moving without spelling out everything, a good compromise.

5:40: A lot of cars with heat pumps for space heating will disable battery cooling when you heat the cabin. By having a PTC inside the cabin, you can heat the cabin and cool the battery at the same time.. In my opinion, a smart design for cold climates.

The reason to include a PTC heater and put a resistive heater at the battery outlet is to reduce the temperature delta that the heat pump has to deal with. Heat pumps don't like big deltas.

There is no doubt that the PTC heater does not come on to heat the cabin - it cannot.

Terrific work on this. Great information. And congratulations to Alex. She's definitely got a bright future in the industry!!! She did an amazing job.

And according to Bjorn Nyland's testing they still can't keep the battery cells at a common temperature and often see 10-15K (°C..) difference between the coldest and hottest cell according to OBD..

The inclusion of the cabin PTC in my experience with a Kona assists the heat pump while the latter is preparing itself for first use. From ambient 7°C and under when heat is first switched the PTC lights up for about 2 minutes drawing around 3.5 kW. The heat pump takes over and consumption drops to 0.6-1.0 kW. As for the inclusion of both condenser and evaporator in the cabin I was unsure if Alex noted that it also allows for control of humidity using reheat without involving the PTC. I'm glad our awesome hosts pointed out why I like the discrete componentry layout. It's fine to save money by integration but only if you pass on that savings to the consumer rather than pocket it.

Julian did a great job

The Ionic 5 and Kia EV6 have exhibited power throttling after charging when the battery temp hits 51c. It would be interesting to track down how the thermo management configuration fails to keep the battery cool enough to avoid this.

@AlexWhittemore

11 ай бұрын

The compressor consumes, in my observation, around 2kW peak. If we assume a quite generous COP of 5, that means the cooling system can reject about 8kW of heat maximum. On the consumption side, the battery can sink 240kW peak. If we assume 95% charging efficiency (again, I think that's quite generous) that's 12kW of waste heat evolved. Waste heat generated and heat removal capacity simply aren't designed to match. The car is designed to cover MOST charging scenarios by relying on the speed of charging and thermal inertia of the pack to simply hit a voltage bottleneck before it hits a thermal one. It's almost certainly not worth the cost and weight to build in higher cooling capacity simply to avoid worst-case charging scenarios, when you'd only recover a few minutes worth of charging time anyway.

Julian and Alex make a great team! These vids point out novel ways OEMs approach similar functions. I’d like to learn more about why Hyundai is using one type of coolant for the inverters and motors, and a second for the drive battery.

PTC heater is used when the heat pump drops effect in very cold weather... PTC is then used to initial heat air to a temp where heat pump can take over.. so I have heard...

Very interesting video, my thoughs are that it is much easier to search for a leak if there are two separate resouvar instead of one joint one if you get one at some point

as far as the brackets needed, one would think that brackes could be injected molded plastic as opposed to stamped steel. cheaper later and more than strong enough to mount most of those components.

Just a correction. The component shown at 16:30 is a liquid cooled condenser. They using the Powertrain cooling to cool the gaseous refrigerant during the high temperature phase. The battery cooling loop section helps with lower subcooling. The refrigerant then exits into a dryer and then a accumulator.

Thank you!

Great job

I have 2 Hyundai’s, one with dual heat pump/PTC and one with PTC only and the one without the heat pump is more range efficient in winter range for me. Now the biggest caveat is that my drives are under 20 min 95% of the time so barely time for just the heat pump to run effectively as the temperature stabiliser. The dual system pulls 7-8kw for at least 10 min on the very cold mornings while the PTC system pulls between 3-4kw

Same experience on e-soul. For long trips heat pump is great, -for short trips it eats battery.

my 2015 VW e Golf has a PTC heater too but it is in the coolant loop with a heat exchanger that is tied to the heat pump into the R134A so it boost the heat output of the heat pump when in very cold weather.

If you put the pcs heater at the outlet you can have the temperature sensor in the outlet as well, in the same package as the heater. So counterintuitively it might be easier architecturally.

Nice to see a mention of serviceability advantages of not having a fully integrated cooling system.

An excellent exposé from Julian and Alex, as usual from Monro Live. I was curious that Hyundai uses a ball valve to control the flow of refrigerant at 22:00. Is the actuator nonlinear? Or have I completely missed something.

Thanks for this video. It has answered a lot I have had about the temperature conditioning of the batteries in the currently available brands of EV. I knew that Tesla put a lot of study into this process, and I was concerned that other vehicles did not have the same technology. Hyundai appears to have done their homework on getting this system to function close to what the Tesla is doing. Granted, as Alex has mentioned here, the parts are more "off the shelf" and "simpler" with serviceability being easier than that of Tesla, it is an effective system. All in all, I would feel much better about purchasing the Hyundai vehicles knowing they have a good battery temperature conditioning system. I know Tesla is constantly upgrading their systems with the latest and greatest technology - but I don't think these other companies are that far behind. Thanks again!

Re: the location of the PTC heater being at the outlet of the battery loop, it makes sense because they will have more control over the temperature that the battery cells actually experience. If they measure the temperature at the outlet, they can either throw more heat in, or stop heating before the fluid reaches the cells again since the battery itself also will generate heat while in operation. That's the only reason I can think of anyway.

Talking about the ICCU I would like to see one opened up and maybe if you have an idea why so many are failing after 10-12 months. One person said their dealer had 5 other (besides his) Ioniq 5s on the backlot waiting for ICCUs to come in, there seems to by a 1-3 month wait on parts since that piece is in such high demand.

More Alex. She is great!

🙋‍♂️ THANKS JULIAN,ALEX, GRACE AND THE MUNRO TEAM 🤗👍💚💚💚

As referenced by @NO3V, This seems to indicate why there's an "odd " variance in the cell and inlet temperatures, which in turn results in let's call it 'non-linear' charging performance depending on both internal and external conditions. Or, to put it another way, there's often a variable but narrow "fast charge" window where the controlling temperatures are both between 20°c and 45(?) °c. . (If you haven't seen the scan data from Bjørn Nyland and others...... Well worth a watch)

The PTC cabin heater can be deactivated by the user, if preserving the last Wh of energy is crucial.

The measure stick for heating and cooling an EV is without question the octovalve by TESLA. However my Kia EV6 with HP has proven its ability in cold Swiss mountain weather below 0°C to heat quickly to 21°C and that without excessive noise. An EQE costing three times as much took three times longer and was extremely loud, especially for a ‚premium‘ brand a shame. In the beginning we had some fog problems with automated circulated air entering tunnels but we found settings to perfectly adjust the fine working system. Driving after 54 mostly ‚premium‘ cars my first Kia and it’s the best car ever. Just once change wheels and driven 13‘000 km with til automne 16,8 kWh per 100 km, in cold winter til now it’s 17,4 kWh. This is highly effective for a car of that size! The E-GMP platform is really outstanding and hopefully Hyundai Group like ever til now is learning from the best - Sandy Munro and Associates. Think after one year of Kia and Genesis the Coreans are now on a next level and will better manage transition than many other groups. Here also strategic partnerships will help e.g. Porsche and Kroatian Tesla Mate Rimac from Rimac-Bugatti. 🤫🤔😎🇨🇭

The coolant block with a dryer looks expensive to replace if servicing the coolant loop. Most people charge the dryer.

Excelent

Just asking-do you collect efficiency data or comparison efficiency to other systems like Tesla’s and also weight? I believe I remember Sandy referring to “a gram a day” being a kind of motto in China for EV engineering, and he ended the video last week with his questioning the weight of the sliding console. It’s different to comprehend all the variables you must evaluate!

Could battery heater location have been decided because of wire length?

Can anyone tell me, is the blue coolant is a specific one, or regular antifreeze fluid? Thank you.
