Description

Heating system for cylindrical battery module and battery module
Technical Field
The invention relates to a power battery, in particular to a heating system of a cylindrical battery module and a battery module for a pure electric vehicle or a hybrid electric vehicle and electric energy storage equipment.
Background
At present, pure electric and oil-electricity hybrid electric vehicles are more and more in our life, and most of the existing and future pure electric and oil-electricity hybrid electric vehicles adopt lithium ion power batteries as power sources, and the performance, reliability and service life of the lithium ion batteries at high and low temperatures are greatly reduced compared with those of the lithium ion batteries at normal temperature. When the battery module is used in a low-temperature environment, a heating system is required to heat the battery module, so that the battery core reaches a proper temperature and then starts to charge and discharge. After the lithium ion battery module is used for a period of time, each battery core can be aged to different degrees, the internal resistance of each battery core can be increased, the variation range of the internal resistance of each battery core is far more than the average value, a large amount of heat can be generated during discharging, and especially under a high-temperature environment, the heat is easier to accumulate, and the heat must be dissipated in time, so that the battery core reaches a proper temperature. Also, the battery module of the power storage device has the above problems.
The battery heating mode in the current market is generally circulation liquid heating or warm air heating, and PET heating films, silica gel heating plates, PTC heating plates and the like are arranged around the battery, the circulation liquid heating mode has the defects of complex structure, low efficiency, low reliability, high cost and the like, the warm air heating mode has the defects of low heating rate, uneven temperature, easiness in heat accumulation, high energy consumption and the like, the two modes are used less and less, and the heating modes such as the PET heating films, the silica gel heating plates or the PTC heating plates are used more.
The two modes of PET heating film and silica gel heating plate have the following defects: the heating components inside the PET heating film and the silica gel heating plate are electric heating alloy wires, the temperature is not easy to control, the local temperature difference is large, and the insulating layer is easy to damage to cause electric leakage, so that safety accidents are easy to cause;
PTC heating plates have the following disadvantages: (e.g., patent application Ser. No. 201510634026.6).
1. Low temperature rising rate and large local temperature difference
Because the PTC heating plate is attached to the outside of the battery pack, the time required for heat transfer to the central part of the battery pack is longer, so that the temperature rising rate of the central part of the battery pack is slower; meanwhile, the temperature difference of each battery core of the battery pack is larger, and the performance and the service life of the battery are greatly influenced.
2. Low heating efficiency and high energy consumption
The PTC heating plate transfers a large portion of heat to the battery pack case and the air due to the structure in which both sides thereof generate heat, resulting in low heating efficiency and much power consumption.
3. Poor safety
The PTC heating plate is arranged on the surface of the battery module, namely, the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the battery pack or the battery core extend to the surface of the shell, the heating plate heats the positive electrode and the negative electrode and conducts heat to the inside of the module, one heating plate is generally contacted with the positive electrode and the negative electrode of a plurality of battery packs or the battery cores at the same time, if the heating plate is used in a vibration environment for a long time, the insulating outer layer of the heating plate is damaged, the short circuit of the positive electrode and the negative electrode of the battery is possibly caused, the battery is damaged, and the safety accident is caused.
4. The PTC heating plate is heavy, and the PTC heating plate adopts aluminum alloy as a mechanism part for fixing the PTC heating element and radiating, so that the unit density is high, the overall weight of the battery module is increased, the specific energy parameter of the battery module is reduced, and the endurance mileage of the vehicle is affected.
The above drawbacks are particularly evident for cylindrical batteries, because the outer housing is cylindrical, the contact area with the heating plate is small, the heat transfer efficiency is worse, and in order to improve the heat efficiency, a manner of adding a silica gel pad with a large weight at the gap is generally adopted. But does not effectively solve the problem while increasing the total weight of the battery pack.
The heater needs to be used with a plurality of external temperature sensors, the temperature sensors transmit signals to a battery management system (namely BMS), and the battery management system (namely BMS) judges whether the heater works or not, so that the battery is kept in a reasonable temperature range.
