    摘要: An in-vehicle-mounted structure in which a drive unit is mounted on a vehicle equipped with an engine. The drive unit includes a drive motor and a transmission. The drive motor and the transmission are connected in series in a width direction of the vehicle. An exhaust pipe of the engine is extended to pass adjacent the transmission in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. The transmission includes a coolant flow channel through which flows coolant for cooling lubricating oil that lubricates a speed change mechanism inside the transmission. The coolant flow channel is positioned to face the exhaust pipe.

    摘要: A heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system includes an evaporator configured to provide a working fluid in a gaseous state at a first temperature range and a first pressure, and a compressor downstream from the evaporator. The compressor is configured to provide the working fluid in the gaseous state at a second temperature range and a second pressure, and the second temperature range is greater than the first temperature range and the second pressure greater than the first pressure. The system includes a first thermoelectric generator arranged between the evaporator and the compressor. A first end of the first thermoelectric generator is configured to receive the working fluid from the evaporator, and a second end is configured to receive the working fluid from the compressor. The first thermoelectric generator is configured to generate electrical energy based on a temperature difference between the first end and the second end.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides a heat exchanger for a vehicle. The heat exchanger includes a relay block and a base member. The relay block has a first passage and a second passage. The relay block includes a first connecting surface and a second connecting surface. The base member is formed of plastic. The first connecting surface is configured to be connected to a first connector that is in fluid communication with a first in-vehicle component. The second connecting surface is configured to be connected to a second connector that is in fluid communication with a second in-vehicle component. Heat medium flows into the first in-vehicle component through the first passage and the heat medium flows into the second in-vehicle component through the second passage. The relay block is integrally formed with the base member by molding.
