The article is first briefly elaborated on the research progress of thermal management, and then introduces the key thermal control technology of thermal management, mainly thermal bus, heat pump technology and passive thermal control technology. Finally, the future development direction and research focus of thermal management is proposed, which lays a foundation for the future development of thermal management technology.
