Description

Maximum efficiency tracking control method and vehicle-mounted charging system
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of vehicle-mounted charging, in particular to a maximum efficiency tracking control method and a vehicle-mounted charging system.
Background
This section is intended to provide a background or context to the embodiments of the invention that are recited in the claims. The description herein is not admitted to be prior art by inclusion in this section.
With the development of vehicle-mounted charging technology and electric vehicles, the vehicle-mounted charging technology of the electric vehicles is also widely developed and applied. Meanwhile, high-power electric vehicles are increasing day by day, the charging time of the electric vehicles is decreasing day by day, and the vehicle-mounted charging technology also gets extensive attention from the industry. The traditional parallel charging technology is mainly applied to a direct-current power supply system, buses of all power supply modules are connected together in a parallel mode, and outputs are connected together in a parallel mode. The output current balance of each power supply module is realized mainly by adopting a parallel current-sharing control technology, namely the output current of each power supply module is controlled to be equal to realize the current sharing among all the modules so as to output corresponding power.
The conventional parallel current sharing control technology mainly comprises: droop method, master/slave setting method, average current automatic current sharing method, maximum current automatic current sharing method, thermal stress automatic current sharing method and external current sharing controller current sharing method.
The droop method is the simplest current sharing method, and current sharing is achieved by adjusting the output impedance of the converter (namely, adjusting the external characteristic gradient). However, the droop method has poor current distribution characteristics at low current and a reduced voltage regulation rate. In order to achieve current sharing, each module must be adjusted independently, and current sharing is difficult to achieve for parallel modules with different rated powers.
The master/slave setup method is applicable to a parallel switching power supply system employing current mode control. The master module works according to the voltage control rule, the other slave modules work in a current control mode, the current of each slave module is modulated according to the same value and basically consistent with the current of the master module, and therefore current sharing is achieved. By adopting a master/slave setting method, communication between a master module and a slave module is required, so that the system is more complicated. If the main module fails, the whole power supply system cannot work, and the method is not suitable for a redundant parallel system. In addition, the voltage loop of the parallel switching power supply system based on the master/slave setting method is wide and is easily interfered by the outside.
The average current automatic current equalizing method is to compare the voltage signal of each module with the voltage signal of the current equalizing bus to obtain the compensation quantity to control and realize current equalizing. By adopting the average current automatic current equalizing method, when the current equalizing bus is short-circuited or any module connected on the bus cannot work, the voltage of the bus is reduced, the voltage of each module is reduced, even the voltage reaches the lower limit, and as a result, a fault is caused. When the current of a certain module rises to the limit, the module is greatly increased, and the output voltage of the module is automatically adjusted to the lower limit.
The maximum current automatic current-sharing method links the parallel power supply modules through the current-sharing bus, provides a current reference value for each power supply module, and all the parallel power supply modules adjust the output current according to the reference value, so that the total current of the system is accurately shared in each parallel power supply. The main module of the maximum current automatic current equalizing method is not fixed, and the module with the maximum current in the system automatically works as the main module. However, although the current sharing method using the additional current sharing controller can obtain a good current sharing effect and a good voltage regulation rate, the additional current sharing controller is needed, and once the current sharing controller fails, the system cannot work normally; and when the number of the parallel modules is large, the number of the parallel systems is large, and the reliability of the system is reduced to a certain extent.
The thermal stress auto-current sharing method achieves current sharing according to the current and temperature (i.e., thermal stress) of each module. The current sharing method of the additional current sharing controller needs to add one current sharing controller to a control circuit of each module, is used for detecting the unbalanced condition of the current of each module connected in parallel and adjusting a control signal, and therefore current sharing is achieved.
Due to various defects of the parallel current-sharing control technology, the efficiency of the vehicle-mounted charging system cannot be optimized by controlling each power supply module to output equal current, and the efficiency of power conversion of the vehicle-mounted charging system cannot be effectively improved.
Therefore, the conventional vehicle-mounted charging system has the problem of low power conversion efficiency.

Fig. 4 illustrates an implementation flow of step 301 in the maximum efficiency tracking control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, and for convenience of description, only the relevant parts related to the embodiment of the present invention are illustrated, and the following details are described below:
in a further embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, step 301, the maximum efficiency tracking module uses maximum efficiency tracking to obtain an output current of each converter when the vehicle charging system is at maximum efficiency according to the current operating condition, including:
step 401, the maximum efficiency tracking module obtains each power distribution combination meeting a preset condition under the current operating condition;
step 402, the maximum efficiency tracking module obtains the total loss of each power distribution combination meeting the preset condition according to the loss curve of the single converter; when the converter group includes only one converter, the converter is called a single converter;
step 403, the maximum efficiency tracking module performs a cyclic comparison on the total loss of each power distribution combination meeting the preset condition to obtain a power distribution combination meeting the preset condition with the minimum total loss under the current operating condition;

Similarly, assume that the current operating condition is that the current power is P0The current working voltage is U0. The preset condition is a preset condition, and those skilled in the art can understand that the preset condition may be set according to actual requirements, which is not particularly limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

Po＝Po1+Po2+…+Pon-1+Pon；
wherein, PoFor the output power, P, of the on-board charging system under the current operating conditionso1To PonThe output powers of the first converter to the nth converter are respectively. That is, the sum of the output power of the on-board charging system and the output power of the first to nth converters should be equal to satisfy the current operating condition. And then under the current operation condition, the maximum efficiency tracking module acquires each power distribution combination meeting the preset condition.
Further, the single converter is tested under the current operation condition, and a loss curve of the single converter is obtained. The single converter is a converter that is called a single converter when the converter group includes only one converter.

Namely, the maximum efficiency tracking module obtains the total loss of each power distribution combination meeting the preset condition according to the loss curve of the single converter.

Fig. 5 illustrates an implementation flow of step 401 in the maximum efficiency tracking control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, and for convenience of description, only the relevant parts related to the embodiment of the present invention are illustrated, and the following details are described below:
in a further embodiment, as shown in fig. 5, step 401, the maximum efficiency tracking module obtains each power allocation combination satisfying the preset condition under the current operating condition, including:
step 501, under the current operating condition, the maximum efficiency tracking module sequentially increases the possible values of the output powers of the first converter to the nth converter from zero to P according to the power step lengtho、Po-Po1、…、Po-Po1-Po2…Pn-3-Pn-2、Po-Po1-Po2…Pn-2-Pn-1；
Step 502, maximum efficiency tracking module separately from Po、Po-Po1、…、Po-Po1-Po2…Pn-3-Pn-2、Po-Po1-Po2…Pn-2-Pn-1One value is selected, so that the sum of the selected n values is equal to the output power P of the vehicle charging system under the current operation conditiono。
In the embodiment of the present invention, the power step refers to the minimum unit of value that is increased or decreased when the output power of the converter is adjusted, and generally, the power step may be set to 1 watt, and it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the power step may also be set to other values, for example, the power step may be set to 2 watts, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present invention. We can adopt PstepRepresenting the power step.
At the time of obtaining each power distribution combination satisfying the preset condition, at the current operation condition (i.e. the working power P)oOperating voltage U0) Then, the possible value of the output power of the first converter is gradually increased to P according to the power stepoPossible values of the output power of the first converter then include: 0. pstep、2Pstep、3Pstep、…、PoPossible values of the output power of the second converter include: 0. pstep、2Pstep、3Pstep、…、Po-Po1(ii) a Possible values of the output power of the third converter include: 0. pstep、2Pstep、3Pstep、…、Po-Po1-Po2And so on, possible values of the output power of the n-1 st converter include: 0. pstep、2Pstep、3Pstep、…、Po-Po1-Po2…Pn-3-Pn-2Possible values of the output power of the nth converter include: 0. pstep、2Pstep、3Pstep、…、Po-Po1-Po2…Pn-2-Pn-1。
After obtaining the possible values of the output powers of the first converter to the nth converter, selecting a value from the possible values of the output powers of the first converter to the nth converter, that is, a first value is selected from the possible values of the output power of the first converter, a second value is selected from the possible values of the output power of the second converter, a third value is selected from the possible values of the output power of the third converter, a fourth value is selected from the possible values of the output power of the fourth converter, and so on, until an n-1 th value is selected from the possible values of the output power of the n-1 th converter, an nth value is selected from the possible values of the output power of the nth converter, so that n values are selected from the possible values of the output power of the first converter to the nth converter, and the selected n values satisfy that the sum of the n values is equal to the operating power P.o。
When selecting n values from the possible values of the output power of the first to nth converters, the output power of the first converter may be selected to be PoThe output power of other converters is zero; or the output powers of the first converter to the n-1 converter can be selected to be power step length PstepSelecting the output power of the nth converter as Pon-(n-1)PstepAnd so on. Therefore, a plurality of power distribution combinations may be acquired such that the acquired power distribution combinations each satisfy that the sum of powers is equal to the output power P of the vehicle-mounted charging systemo。

601, obtaining an efficiency curve of a single converter by a maximum efficiency tracking module according to the current operating condition;
in step 602, the maximum efficiency tracking module obtains a loss curve of the single converter under the current operating condition according to the efficiency curve of the single converter.
The efficiency curve of the converter is a curve showing a trend in the conversion efficiency of the converter power. The loss curve of the converter is a curve showing the trend of the converter power loss. As indicated above, the efficiency curves here are the efficiency curve and the loss curve of a single converter. That is, when the converter group includes only one converter, the efficiency curve and the loss curve of the one converter are obtained. In particular, it is possible to operate at the current operating conditions (i.e. operating power P)oOperating voltage U0) Then, each converter in the converter group is tested as a single converter, and an efficiency curve of each converter in the converter group as a single converter is obtained.
Assuming that the efficiency of the single converter is represented by η and the loss is represented by S, a certain loss on the loss curve of the single converter and a certain efficiency corresponding to the efficiency curve of the single converter satisfy the following relation:

wherein, P0The output power of the onboard charging system is the current operating condition.
Therefore, after the efficiency curve of the single converter is obtained, according to the efficiency of each point on the efficiency curve, the loss of the single converter corresponding to each point is determined through the formula, the obtained loss data of each point is drawn into a curve, and the drawn curve is the loss curve of the single converter.
In order to improve the efficiency of determining the loss curve of the single converter, the efficiency of several points can be selected from the efficiency curve of the single converter, the loss corresponding to the several points is obtained through calculation, and the loss corresponding to the several points is used for fitting to obtain the loss curve of the single converter.
In addition, under the current operating conditions (i.e. operating power P)oOperating voltage U0) When the change occurs, according to a new operating condition and according to a selection principle that the converter which generates the minimum accumulated electric energy is the main converter, the new main converter is selected, and the output current of each converter in the converter group is obtained by using the maximum efficiency tracking control method in any embodiment, so that the maximum efficiency of the vehicle-mounted charging system under the new operating condition is realized.
Further, the vehicle-mounted charging system shown in fig. 1 is configured to execute the maximum efficiency tracking control method according to any one of the embodiments. As shown in fig. 1, the vehicle-mounted charging system includes: the device comprises an alternating current power supply, a load and a converter group respectively connected with the alternating current power supply and the load, wherein the converter group further comprises a maximum efficiency tracking module.

That is, the output current of each inverter when the vehicle-mounted charging system is made to be at the maximum efficiency is determined by the upper computer, and then the upper computer distributes the obtained output current of each inverter to each inverter in the inverter group. The upper computer and each converter in the converter group can communicate in a bus mode.
In a further embodiment, both the master converter and the slave converter comprise a voltage loop and a current loop. The main converter stabilizes the voltage of the load by controlling the voltage loop, and both the main converter and the slave converter control the current loop to track the output current distributed by the main converter to each converter.

in the embodiment of the invention, the converter group only comprises two converters, namely the first converter and the second converter, and the efficiency mesh surface schematic diagram of the vehicle-mounted charging system is drawn based on the two converters.
As shown in fig. 7, by the maximum efficiency tracking control method, the boundary between the power plane (i.e., the power plane formed by the combination of all the powers of which the sum of the output power of the first converter and the output power of the second converter is 2 kW) when the total output power of the in-vehicle charging system is 2kW and the efficiency grid curve of the in-vehicle charging system is obtained. The boundary line between the power plane and the efficiency grid curve is a curve formed by the efficiencies of the vehicle-mounted charging systems corresponding to different power combinations when the sum of the output power of the first converter and the output power of the second converter is 2 kW.
As can be seen from fig. 7, when the efficiency of the on-vehicle charging system corresponding to the different power combinations of the first converter and the second converter is maximum under the condition that the total output power of the on-vehicle charging system is 2kW, only one converter is operated, and the output power is 2kW, while the other converter is not operated, that is, under the condition that there is no output power.
That is, when the output power of the first converter is 2kw and the output power of the second converter is zero, or when the output power of the first converter is zero and the output power of the second converter is 2kw, the vehicle-mounted charging system reaches the maximum efficiency.
Fig. 8 shows a comparison between an efficiency mesh surface of an in-vehicle charging system obtained by using a maximum efficiency tracking control method according to an embodiment of the present invention and an efficiency mesh surface of an in-vehicle charging system obtained by using a current sharing control method, where for convenience of description, only the portions related to the embodiment of the present invention are shown, and details are as follows:
as shown in fig. 8, the first efficiency mesh curved surface is an efficiency mesh curved surface of the vehicle-mounted charging system obtained by using the maximum efficiency tracking control method, and the second efficiency mesh curved surface is an efficiency mesh curved surface of the vehicle-mounted charging system obtained by using a conventional current sharing control method. As can be seen from fig. 8, under the condition of light load (i.e. 20% rated load to 50% rated load), the average efficiency of the first-efficiency mesh curved surface is improved by about 2% compared with the average efficiency of the second-efficiency mesh curved surface in the vehicle-mounted charging system. In addition, the efficiency of the first efficiency mesh surface is improved less compared to the efficiency of the second efficiency mesh surface when the load is heavier. The efficiency of the first efficiency mesh surface is substantially the same as the efficiency of the second efficiency mesh surface near or at full load.
As shown in fig. 8, for the same operating conditions, the efficiency of the vehicle-mounted charging system obtained by the maximum efficiency tracking control method is improved compared with the efficiency of the vehicle-mounted charging system obtained by the current sharing control method. Particularly, when the vehicle-mounted charging system is in light load (namely 20% rated load to 50% rated load), the efficiency of the vehicle-mounted charging system obtained by the maximum efficiency tracking control method is obviously improved compared with the efficiency of the vehicle-mounted charging system obtained by the current sharing control method. Experiments show that compared with the traditional current sharing control method, the light-load average efficiency of the vehicle-mounted charging system obtained by the maximum efficiency tracking control method is improved by about 2%. Experiments also show that the larger the number of converters in the converter group, the larger the rate of improvement in the light-load average efficiency of the vehicle-mounted charging system by the maximum efficiency tracking control method.
In a further embodiment, the maximum efficiency tracking control method provided in any embodiment of the present invention may be an offline algorithm, that is, under the conditions of different output powers and output voltages, a power distribution combination table of each converter in the converter group is obtained by using the maximum efficiency tracking control method, and then the power distribution combination table is recorded in a control chip of the converter, and the control chip of the converter searches for the power distribution combination table during the operation process, so that the power distribution combination of the converter when the vehicle-mounted charging system is at the maximum efficiency is performed.
In addition, in another embodiment of the present invention, the maximum efficiency tracking control method may also be an online algorithm. In the running process, according to different output powers and output voltages, the power distribution combination of the converter when the vehicle-mounted charging system is at the maximum efficiency is obtained through real-time calculation and executed, and therefore the maximum efficiency running point of the vehicle-mounted charging system is tracked. Each converter in the converter group is loaded with the maximum efficiency tracking control method.
The embodiment of the present invention further provides a computer device, which includes a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and capable of running on the processor, and the processor implements the maximum efficiency tracking control method when executing the computer program.
An embodiment of the present invention further provides a computer-readable storage medium, where a computer program for executing the maximum efficiency tracking control method is stored in the computer-readable storage medium.
In summary, in the embodiment of the present invention, the vehicle-mounted charging system includes an ac power supply, a load, and a converter group respectively connected to the ac power supply and the load, and the converter group further includes a maximum efficiency tracking module. The maximum efficiency tracking module is used for tracking and obtaining the output current of each converter when the vehicle-mounted charging system is in the maximum efficiency according to the current operating condition, the maximum efficiency tracking module is used for respectively distributing the obtained output current of each converter to each converter, and the converter group is used for converting the power provided by the alternating current power supply according to the output current corresponding to each converter and then outputting the converted power to a load. The maximum efficiency tracking module in the embodiment of the invention utilizes the maximum efficiency tracking to obtain the output current of each converter, so that the vehicle-mounted charging system is at the maximum efficiency, and therefore, the embodiment of the invention can improve the power conversion efficiency of the vehicle-mounted charging system.
