continuously applied even under conditions where the rotor temperature is sufficiently low, fluid-induced kinetic energy losses can become more dominant than the cooling benefit. To address this, Li Auto adopted an on-demand rotor oil cooling strategy rather than continuous cooling. Specifically, a solenoid valve is used to regulate oil flow, shutting off oil supply to the rotor under operating conditions where cooling is unnecessary. This concep...
