Abstract
A heat exchange system and a method for determining whether flow of cooling medium passing through a heat exchanger is too low. The heat exchange system includes a refrigerant flow path in which refrigerant circulates; a cooling medium flow path in which cooling medium circulates; and a heat exchanger connected to both the refrigerant flow path and the cooling medium flow path so that the refrigerant and the cooling medium exchange heat in the heat exchanger. The heat exchange system includes a first temperature sensor arranged at a cooling medium inlet of the heat exchanger, a second temperature sensor at a cooling medium outlet of the heat exchanger, and a controller in communication with the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor. The controller is configured to determine whether the flow of cooling medium in the heat exchanger is too low based on a temperature difference.
