Description

Full-coverage safety monitoring system for battery and battery management method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of power electronics, in particular to a battery full-coverage safety monitoring system and a battery management method.
Background
In the field of new energy power supplies or energy storage backup power supplies, a PACK structure of a lithium ion battery module is an important core component, and particularly in some fields (such as the field of pure electric vehicles), the lithium ion battery is especially important as a unique power source. Therefore, the effective PACK structure of the lithium ion battery and the full-coverage battery health management (HBMS) can fundamentally improve the endurance mileage and the service life of the power supply or the energy storage backup power supply.
Generally, the battery PACK structure grouping mode can be divided into two types: the first is a parallel-first-serial PACK method: according to the capacity and voltage of the lithium ion battery pack required by the whole vehicle, all the single batteries are connected in parallel and then connected in series. After the single batteries are connected in parallel, the cycle life of the batteries connected in parallel is influenced by factors such as difference of internal resistances (including internal resistance of a conductor in the PACK process), uneven heat dissipation and the like. Furthermore, when a unit cell in parallel is short-circuited, the current in the parallel circuit is very high, which may easily cause the risk of the cell burning or explosion. The second serial-to-parallel PACK mode: according to the capacity and voltage of the lithium ion battery pack required by the whole vehicle, the single batteries are firstly connected in series, for example, 1/3 single batteries occupying the capacity of the whole pack are firstly connected in series and are finally connected in parallel. The purpose of this is to reduce the probability of failure of the large capacity battery pack. However, the PACK mode has high requirements on a management system. In many cases, the stopping of charging or discharging of the entire battery pack is often caused by the fact that the individual batteries in the series circuit are in a weak state.
Generally speaking, as long as the lithium power battery (or any other type of battery) in series connection and the high-capacity super capacitor are used as power or auxiliary power, during the process of supplementing or releasing electric energy, the problem of consistency difference easily occurs in the multiple single energy storage devices in the series energy storage assembly, for example, the single battery in the power battery in the PACK mode of series connection and parallel connection is often in an overcharged and overdischarged state, which results in a significant reduction in the service life of the power battery and easy spontaneous combustion, and therefore, it is extremely necessary to implement independent balance control for any single energy storage device in the series energy storage assembly, and it is one of the main technologies that must be solved in the new energy application field.

When the voltages of the single batteries at the same positions on different basic series branches in the same basic battery module are different, a first control signal is sent to the relay module 14, and the power battery is subjected to standing natural electricity balance control according to the first control signal, specifically, when the electricity quantity between the single battery with the label of 1 of the basic series branch A1 and the single battery with the label of 1 of the basic series branch B1 is inconsistent, … …, and the electricity quantity between the single battery with the label of 4 of the basic series branch A1 and the single battery with the label of 4 of the basic series branch B1 is inconsistent, a first control signal is sent to the relay module 14 to sequentially close K0-K3, so that the batteries with the labels of 4 in different basic series branches in the basic battery module 1 are connected in parallel, … …, the batteries with the labels of 1 in different basic series branches in the basic battery module 1 are connected in parallel, equalization can thus be performed. The same applies to the battery basic module 2, and the description thereof is omitted.
Or alternatively, when the voltages of the single batteries at the same position on different battery basic modules are different, a second control signal is sent to the relay module 14; and carrying out balance control on the power battery according to the control signal, and carrying out standing natural electric quantity balance control on the power battery according to the second control signal. Specifically, when the electric quantity of the single battery with the reference number of 1 in the basic series branch a1 is inconsistent with the electric quantity of the single battery with the reference number of 1 in the basic series branch a2, … …, and when the electric quantity of the single battery with the reference number of 4 in the basic series branch a1 is inconsistent with the electric quantity of the single battery with the reference number of 4 in the basic series branch a2, a second control signal is sent to the relay module 14, so that K4-K7 are sequentially closed, and thus, the batteries with the reference numbers of 4, which are located on the same series circuit and at the same position in the battery basic module 1 and the battery basic module 2, are connected in parallel, and the batteries with the reference numbers of 1, … …, are connected in parallel.
Of course, if the voltage of the single batteries at the same position on different basic series branches in the same basic battery module and the voltage of the single batteries at the same position on different basic battery modules are to be equalized at the same time, a first control signal and a second control signal need to be sent to the relay module 14 at the same time, and the relay module 14 executes the first control signal and the second control signal in sequence to perform the static natural electric quantity equalization control on the power battery.
It should be noted that, when the stationary natural power balance control is performed, the contactors K1 and K2 are prohibited from being closed, and the power battery does not output electric energy. The stationary natural power balance control is described by taking the power battery and the relay module illustrated in fig. 3 and 4 as an example, but the embodiment is not limited thereto, and may be applied to the power battery including N battery basic modules as illustrated in fig. 2, where each battery basic module includes M basic series branches, each basic series branch includes L single batteries connected in series with each other, and N, M, L is a positive integer, and the working process is similar, and is not described herein again.
Optionally, the sending the control signal to the relay module according to the electrical parameter includes: when the voltage of the first single battery is higher than the voltages of the basic battery module and other single batteries in the basic series branch by a second preset threshold value, a third control signal is sent to the relay module; and performing passive balance control on the power battery according to a third control signal. In a specific implementation, as described in the above-mentioned full-coverage safety monitoring system for a battery, a first battery cell whose voltage exceeds a second preset threshold may be discharged through a discharge load electrically connected to each relay in the first relays until the first battery cell and the remaining battery cells reach a capacity consistent. Of course, the first relay may not be used, and the discharging load may be connected in parallel only at both ends of the first unit cell to perform the passive balancing control.
Optionally, when the power battery is not used for a long time, or after the balance of natural electric quantity is finished when the power battery stands still, or under other conditions, the difference of electric quantity among the single batteries is large, the power battery needs to perform energy transfer balance control. The energy transfer balance control is to realize the balance of electric quantity among the single batteries at different positions in the same basic series branch in the same basic battery module. The energy transfer equalization control is described below with reference to fig. 5, taking the example of equalizing the electric quantities of the single batteries in the basic series branch a as an example, assuming that the electric quantities of the single batteries numbered 4 and the single batteries numbered 3 in the basic series branch a are not fully charged, and the voltage is smaller than a first preset threshold value, the voltage of the basic battery module is connected to the input end of the DC-DC converter, the dual-channel relay K3 is connected to the output port of the DC-DC converter, when the coil of the relay K3 is electrically connected, the single batteries numbered 4 are charged through the DC-DC converter, after the single batteries numbered 4 are fully charged, the relay K3 is disconnected, the relay K2 is connected, the single batteries numbered 3 are charged through the DC-DC converter, and after the operations are sequentially circulated until the capacities of all the single batteries are consistent. In this way, only one of the first relays needs to be closed, and the dc-dc converter 20 can be controlled to charge the battery cell electrically connected to the relay. Here, the connection between the dc-dc converter 20 and the four single batteries included in the basic series branch a of the battery basic module 1 is only illustrated, and the charging manner for other basic series branches or other battery basic modules is similar, and thus is not described herein again.
Optionally, the power battery may be subjected to balancing control at the starting moment, in the series circuit M of the power battery series circuit 1, … …, L × N single batteries are respectively connected in series, but a large voltage difference, for example, several volts or even tens of volts, exists between the series circuits due to a certain difference in voltage of the single batteries, and the voltage difference may cause a phenomenon of sparking at the starting moment of the power battery. To avoid this, the equalization control at the starting moment is performed. Taking the example shown in fig. 2 that includes N basic battery modules, each basic battery module includes M basic series branches, each basic series branch includes L single batteries connected in series with each other, and N, M, L is a positive integer, when the main contactor K is not closed, all relays of the first relay included in the relay module 14 are closed, so that the single batteries located in the same basic battery module and at the same position on different basic series branches are all connected in parallel, so that the total voltage at both ends of each series circuit 1 … … series circuit M is consistent, and the ignition problem at the moment of starting is effectively suppressed. After equalization at the moment of start-up, the main relay is closed again, the build-up of the high voltage can be completed, and the relay module 14 is then controlled to open the first relay.
Specifically, when the controller sends a high voltage establishment instruction, the first relay in the relay module 14 starts to be closed, then the main relay K and the auxiliary contactors in each series circuit are closed, and after the closing is completed, the first relay of the relay module 14 is opened, so that the high voltage establishment of the whole power battery is completed. When the controller 13 finds that a certain data has a problem (for example, the voltage of a single battery is too low, an insulation monitoring alarm or a traffic accident occurs during operation, etc.), the main contactor and the auxiliary contactor can be prohibited from being closed or the main contactor and the auxiliary contactor can be opened instantly, so that the high-voltage state of the whole power battery is disconnected, the safe low-voltage state of the power battery is realized, and unnecessary secondary damage is avoided.
In this embodiment, the battery management method is applied to the full-coverage safety monitoring system for the battery according to each technical scheme in the above embodiments, and the method includes: collecting electrical parameters of a power battery; sending a control signal to the relay module according to the electrical parameter; and carrying out balance control on the power battery according to the control signal, wherein the balance control mode comprises at least one of the following modes: static natural electric quantity balance control, energy transfer balance control, passive balance control and start instant balance control. Therefore, when the consistency difference occurs in the plurality of single batteries in the process of supplementing or releasing the electric energy of the power battery, the power battery can be subjected to at least one of standing natural electric quantity balance control, energy transfer balance control, passive balance control and balance control at the moment of starting according to the real-time running condition of the power battery reflected in the electric parameters, namely, the plurality of single batteries in the power battery are subjected to balance control, the consistency difference of the plurality of single batteries is eliminated, the phenomenon of overcharge or overdischarge in the using process is avoided, and the service life of the whole power battery is prolonged.
Finally, it should be noted that: the above examples are only intended to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, but not to limit it; while the invention has been described in detail and with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that: the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments may still be modified, or some or all of the technical features may be equivalently replaced; and the modifications or the substitutions do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions depart from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
