- the stop valves are controlled so that the refrigerant fluid circulates in the third branch of bypass A4 and does not circulate in the evapo-condenser 26.
- the bifluid heat exchanger 14 fulfills the function of evaporator of the refrigerant fluid, while the refrigerant fluid does not circulate in the evapo-condenser 26 so that only the calories of the heat transfer fluid of circuit 12 of the first heat transfer fluid are used to heat the internal air flow Fi.

- the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid in the L3 loop also allows a mode of heating the vehicle batteries when the electric heating device 54 is active.
- the bifluid heat exchanger 14 is then inactive, that is to say it is passing for the heat transfer fluid, without significant heat exchanger with the refrigerant fluid of the air conditioning circuit 10, for example by completely closing the first relaxation device 22.
- the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid in the loop L3 also allows a second mode of heating the internal air flow Fi in which the air conditioning circuit 10 operates in internal heat pump mode and in which the heat transfer fluid from the circuit of the first fluid heat carrier 1 2 is heated in the battery heat exchanger 68, that is to say a mode of recovering heat from the batteries to heat the passenger compartment.
- the circuit of the first heat transfer fluid comprises a first three-way valve 70 connecting the first branch B1 downstream of the two-fluid heat exchanger 14, the fourth branch B4 upstream of the “battery” heat exchanger 68 and the upstream end of the second branch B2.
- the first three-way valve 70 makes it possible to alternately select the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid towards the second branch B2 and thus the circulation in the second loop B2 of the first heat transfer fluid, or towards the fourth branch B4 and thus the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid in the third loop B3.
- the circuit 1 2 of the first heat transfer fluid comprises a fifth branch B5 equipped with an expansion tank 60, a radiator 72 arranged in an external air flow (Fe).
- a downstream end of the fifth branch B5 is connected to an upstream end of the third branch B3 and an upstream end of the fifth branch B5 is connected to a downstream end of the third branch B3.
- the expansion tank 60 is alternatively located in another branch of the circuit.
- the circuit of the first heat transfer fluid is thus configured to be able to circulate, in a fourth loop of the first heat transfer fluid L4, all of the heat transfer fluid passing through the "electrical machines” heat exchanger 66 through the external radiator 72 and the second pump 64, in particular so as to allow passive cooling of the heat transfer fluid passing through the "electrical machines” heat exchanger 66 by cooling in the external radiator 72.
- the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid in the fourth loop L4 allows passive cooling of the electric motor by evacuation of the heat from the electric motor into the heat transfer fluid 1 2 through the heat exchanger electrical machines 66, then evacuation of the heat in the external air flow Fe through the external radiator 72.
- the circuit 12 of the first heat transfer fluid comprises a second three-way valve 80 connecting the third branch B3 downstream of the “electric machines” heat exchanger 66, the fourth branch B4 upstream of the “batteries” heat exchanger 68 and the fifth branch B5 upstream of the external radiator 72.
- the second three-way valve 80 makes it possible to alternately select the heat transfer fluid towards the fourth branch B4 to form the second loop L2 for circulation of the first heat transfer fluid or towards the fifth branch B5 to form the fourth loop L4 for circulation of the first heat transfer fluid.
- the circuit described above simultaneously allows the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid in the second loop L2 of the first heat transfer fluid and in the third loop L3 for circulation of the first heat transfer fluid.
- the flow rate in each of the loops L2 and L3 is adjusted by the flow rate of their respective pump 52, 64.
- the two loops L2 and L3 have in common the battery heat exchanger 68, in which the flow rate of the first heat transfer fluid is the sum of the flow rate of the first heat transfer fluid in each of the two loops L2 and L3.
- the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid simultaneously in the loops L2 and L3 allows a third mode of heating the internal air flow in which the bifluid heat exchanger is active to recover heat from the batteries and/or the electric motor 66 and /or the electric heating device 54 if the latter is active.
- Figure 6 is a schematic view which represents a circuit of the first heat transfer fluid which equips the thermal management system produced according to another aspect of the invention, and which is intended to operate in cooperation with the air conditioning circuit of Figure 1.
- Circuit 12 of the first heat transfer fluid includes a sixth branch B6 connecting the fifth branch B5 upstream of the external radiator 72 and the fourth branch B4 downstream of the “battery” heat exchanger 68.
- the circuit of the first heat transfer fluid comprises a third three-way valve 82 connecting the fourth branch B4 downstream of the "battery" heat exchanger 68, the second branch B2 and the sixth branch B6, in particular so as to connect or not the battery heat exchanger to external radiator 72.
- the circuit 12 of the first heat transfer fluid also includes a fourth valve 84 connecting the fourth branch B4 downstream of the “battery” heat exchanger (68), the third valve (82) and the third branch (B3) upstream of the “electric machines” heat exchanger (66).
- the third and fourth valves 82, 84 make it possible in particular to prevent the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid from the third loop L3 of the first heat transfer fluid towards the fourth loop of the first heat transfer fluid L4 by preventing the first heat transfer fluid to pass from one loop L3 to the other L4 via the sixth branch B6 and by the third branch B3.
- the circuit 1 2 of the first heat transfer fluid also includes a seventh branch B7 connecting the first branch B1 upstream of the heating device 54 and the fifth branch B5 downstream of the external radiator 72.
- the circuit 12 of the first heat transfer fluid is thus configured, as illustrated in Figure 7, to allow, in addition to the circulation modes previously illustrated which remain possible, the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid in a fifth mouth L5 of the first heat transfer fluid in which the all of the fluid passing through the “battery” heat exchanger 68 passes through the external radiator 72, in particular by crossing the seventh branch B7 and the sixth branch B6, in particular so as to allow passive cooling of the first heat transfer fluid passing through the heat exchanger “batteries” 68 by cooling in the external radiator 72.
- the fourth valve 84 prevents the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid towards the third branch B3 and the third valve 82 prevents the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid towards the second branch B2.
- the third valve 83 and the third valve 84 connect the sixth branch B6 with the fourth branch B4.
- the circulation in the fifth loop is for example carried out jointly with the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid in the fourth loop B4.
- the flow rate of the first heat transfer fluid in the external radiator then corresponds to the sum of the flow rates in the first pump 52 (or in the battery heat exchanger 68) and in the second pump 64 (or in the electrical machine heat exchanger 66 ). It is thus possible to passively cool batteries and electrical machines (or power electronics).
- the circuit 12 of the first heat transfer fluid is configured to allow the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid in the third loop L4 of the first heat transfer fluid in which all of the fluid passing through the heat exchanger "electric machines” 66 passes through the external radiator 72 and into the fourth loop L4 of the first heat transfer fluid in which all of the refrigerant fluid passing through the “battery” heat exchanger 68 passes through the heating device 54 and the bifluid heat exchanger 14.
- the third valve 82 and the fourth valve 84 prevent the circulation of the first heat transfer fluid between the third and fourth loops of the first heat transfer fluid L3, L4 by preventing the fluid from passing through the sixth branch B6 towards the external radiator 72 and by the third branch B3
- the circuit 1 2 of the first heat transfer fluid is configured to allow the fluid circulating through the “battery” heat exchanger 68 to pass upstream on the one hand into the heating device 54, the bifluid heat exchanger 14 and the first pump 54 thus forming the third loop L3 of the first heat transfer fluid and on the other hand in a sixth loop L6 of the first heat transfer fluid passing through the “electric machines” heat exchanger 66 and the second pump 64, so as to allow in particular a mode of heat recovery by the refrigerant fluid circuit, the calories being supplied by the “electric machines” heat exchanger 66, the electric heating device 54 and/or the “batteries” heat exchanger (68).
- This mode of operation is analogous to the mode of operation of Figure 5, but using, in the mode of operation of Figure 7, the return of the first heat transfer fluid to the sixth loop via the second branch B2 then via the seventh branch B7 , which can minimize heat losses compared to the operating mode in Figure 5.
