At least two thermophysical batteries are provided, each including an adsorption bed unit and an evaporator condenser unit. At least one upper coolant line extends along the adsorption bed unit of each of the thermophysical batteries and is configured to be connected to a source of waste heat of the vehicle for transferring heat from the source of waste heat to a coolant contained in the coolant line and to the adsorption bed units to recharge the adsorption bed unit. At least one distribution element configured in discharge mode to convey heated fluids from adjacent the adsorption bed units or cooled fluids from adjacent to the evaporator condenser units to another region of the vehicle.

A countercurrent heat recovery ventilation system includes an air module assembly and heat exchanger assembly. Air module assembly made from front and back panels connected by two side panels, base plate fixed with the side panels and placed parallel between side panels and a double side radial impeller with a shaft, an electric drive form two hydraulically isolated flow canals with inlet and outlet openings.

The heat exchanger assembly comprises a heat-exchanger that could be done as changeable flow side heat-exchanger made as folded corrugated fins or plates, thus each of the both flow passages split in separate flow channels. Every other channel is sealed to flow from flow same direction forcing the flow to be in opposite direction in all adjacent cannels. This forms two hydraulically isolated flow passages with intake and outtake openings connected respectively with outlet and inlet openings of the air blower assembly.

A vehicle-mounted temperature controller includes a low temperature circuit and a refrigeration circuit. The low temperature circuit has a heat generating equipment heat exchanger exchanging heat with heat generating equipment, a radiator, a first heat exchanger, and a three-way valve. The refrigeration circuit has a second heat exchanger discharging heat from the refrigerant to a high temperature circuit to make the refrigerant condense, and the first heat exchanger making the refrigerant absorb heat from the cooling water to make the refrigerant evaporate. The low temperature circuit includes a first partial circuit through which the cooling water flows through the radiator and the first heat exchanger, and a second partial circuit through which the cooling water flows through the heat generating equipment heat exchanger without passing through the radiator and the first heat exchanger. The cooling water circulates simultaneously and separately at these first partial circuit and second partial circuit.

A drive device of a compressor, including an inverter circuit formed of a plurality of switching elements, a drive unit that switches the switching elements, a determination unit that, when the compression mechanism restarts, determines whether a pressure difference of the compression mechanism is equal to or above a predetermined value, a restart unit that sets a number of times that the switching elements are switched per unit time during an initial predetermined period when the compression mechanism begins to restart and controls the drive unit, where the restart unit sets the number of times that the switching elements are switched per unit time to be lower when the determination unit determines that the pressure difference is equal to or above the threshold as compared to when the determination unit determines that the pressure difference is less than the threshold.

An apparatus for cooling a battery for a vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes a battery module for a vehicle and a body that is disposed adjacent to the battery module. The body has a circulation space formed therein to allow heat generated in the battery module to circulate in the circulation space and thus be absorbed by the body. Additionally, a cooling part is disposed to exchange heat with the body to thus cool the battery module is introduced.
